Denobulan Organizations<br />
Denobulan Medical Academy<br />
The Denobulan Medical Academy is the overseeing Academy of the Denobulan Academic<br />
Council. The main facility is in Triax on Denobula, though it is unclear if there are any other<br />
administrative facilities elsewhere. It has existed for well over two centuries as a part of the<br />
Denobulan Academic Council that consists of various academies all dealing with particular fields<br />
of research (physics, engineering, political science, literary studies etc…).<br />
The Denobulan Medical Academy contains many diagnostic and treatment wards, containing the<br />
most advanced and varied technologies. Long-term facilities are available to care for seriously ill<br />
patients. It is also responsible for all medical research activities on Denobula. Researchers are<br />
required to obtain approval from the Denobulan Medical Academy before proceeding with new<br />
treatments and medications.<br />
The Denobulan Medical Academy is also responsible for the regulation and training of various<br />
counselors, psychiatrists and psychologists.<br />
Note that by the time of <strong>Voyager</strong> the Denobulans had mysteriously vanished.<br />
Orion Organizations<br />
The Orion Syndicate<br />
The Orion Syndicate is a criminal cabal created by the Orions. The Syndicate had been<br />
established by the early 22nd century, and is an organized crime cartel the equivalent of an<br />
interstellar mafia. The Syndicate from its inception included among its principal activities<br />
smuggling, piracy, slave trading, and assassination.<br />
During the 22nd century, the Orion Syndicate controlled space neighboring the Klingon Empire,<br />
near the Briar Patch, and heavily patrolled by the area of space known as the Borderland, often<br />
abducting crewmembers of alien ships for the slave trade.<br />
If a member of the Syndicate is killed, the Syndicate looks after the deceased member's family.<br />
Orion Free Traders<br />
The Orion Free Traders are not a consolidated group. They are a loosely allied group of over one<br />
hundred Orion Merchant Captains who were tired of being referred to as pirates and smugglers<br />
every time they went to port. In an effort to distinguish themselves from the Orion Syndicate and<br />
other illicit groups, they have adopted their own network that includes Advisory Council, Pricing<br />
Enclave, a Coat of Arms and a Capital referred to as First Colony.<br />
First Colony is an extensive asteroid colony in the Berenices star system and has a population of<br />
approximately 78,000 Orions.
