Hoshi Sato invents the lingual code translation matrix.
This is presumably the basis of the universal translator, which is
an integral Federation technology from here on. (happened when Hoshi
was in her late 30's according to her Starfleet records as found on
the 23rd century era Defiant in "In a Mirror Darkly, Part Two") |

The drug felicium is used to halt a plague on Ornara. It is not
realized at the time that felicium, a product of Brekka, has powerfully
addictive properties, making the Ornarans dependent on the drug long
after the plague has been controlled. ("Symbiosis" (TNG) 200 years
prior) |

Guinan meets the Q. (200 years prior to "Q Who?" TNG)
The Statutes of Alpha III are drawn up, a key development in the legal
history of the United Federation of Planets. (Date is completely
speculative based on "Court-martial" - The book Worlds of the Federation
indicates that these statutes were part of the reason that Alpha III was
the first planet to be admitted to the Federation after the admission of
the charter members in 2161, but this is unsubstantiated in other
sources) |

A new type of impulse engine is adopted for Starfleet vessels. The
basic design of this sub light propulsion system remains essentially
unchanged for at least two centuries. ("Relics" (TNG) Scotty noted that
the impulse engine design hadn't changed much in 200 years.)
Ancient burial vaults of the First Hebitian civilization on Cardassia
are unearthed. Grave robbers remove priceless artifacts, including many
made of jevonite, described as unimaginably beautiful. ("Chain of
Command, Part 2" (TNG) Gul Madred said they were unearthed 200 years
before the episode (2369).)
Around this time, the last of four wars are fought between the people of
Earth and the cat people known as the Kzinti. ("The Slaver Weapon"
(TAS), according to Mr. Sulu, the wars ended 200 years prior to the
episode - which would put it right after first contact with the Vulcans
in 2069. In this timeline I am assuming he misspoke and actually meant
100 years prior to 2269.) NOTE: This Kzinti continuity is actually from
Larry Niven's Kzinti universe, as "Slaver Weapon" was adapted by Niven
for the series from his short story "The Soft Weapon." As such, more
than most animateds, "Slaver Weapon" is generally considered by most
fans to not be a part of the official Star Trek canon. Likewise, Niven
fans do not generally consider this episode of animated Star Trek as
part of the Niven universe. In should also be noted, that in the Niven
universe, the span of time that passes before the end of the fourth war
is even longer. The first battle between Kzinti and humans was between
two vessels, the Angel's Pencil and a Kzin Warship in the year 2366.
According to the novel Game, the Fourth Man-Kzinti war ended in 2584. |
