Terran Empire

In the "Mirror Universe", the Terran Empire was the militaristic governmental authority that controlled Earth and surrounding space through the use of powerful Imperial Star Ships. They were one of the dominant powers in the Alpha Quadrant in the 22nd and most of the 23rd centuries, until they were defeated by Klingon-Cardassian Alliance.


 * The term "Terran Empire" was first used in the DS9 episode "Crossover", a sequel to TOS's "Mirror, Mirror". See the entry for Mirror Universe for a detailed examination of the various proposed histories of the Terran Empire.
