Zeta colony

In a Starfleet Academy simulation scenario, Zeta is a Federation colony, specializing in manufactured goods, and joined in a trading consortium with the Lambda and Mu colonies. The three colonies were harassed by Venturi renegades who claimed that the traders were unjust to them.

While USS Excalibur (Miranda class) patroled, the freighter Hansen was unter attack; Excalibur intervened and promised the Venturi that the Federation will listen to their demands.
