Romulan Neutral Zone

The Romulan Neutral Zone was an area of space between the Romulan Star Empire and the United Federation of Planets, established following the Earth-Romulan War. Vessels from either political entity were forbidden from entering the region without prior clearance from the opposing government.

In 2339, the USS Ellesmere (NCC-21464) drifted into the Romulan Neutral Zone following a navigational error. It was attacked and heavily damaged by a cloaked Romulan warbird. (1.3: Border Dispute)

The Federation Starfleet maintained a series of listening posts along its side of the Neutral Zone, to monitor for potential incursions by Romulan forces. In 2339, the outpost Sentry Station 7 suffered a series of malfunctions that indicated potential sabotage. The USS Tempest (NCC-10535) was dispatched to investigate. (1.5: Sabotage on Station 7)
