Kaveth (starship)

"We are happy to leave this corrupt Empire if we must.  But far more would we prefer to take it back, and some day replant all this under the open sky where it belongs." - Thala tr'Kaveth

Kaveth was an enormous starship built secretly during the 23rd century by the Romulan Ship-Clan of the same name, as a refuge for Romulans fleeing the rule of the Star Empire. She later played an essential role in the Romulan Civil War. 

Kaveth had five outer hulls set far back along a bullet-shaped main body. She was significantly larger than her sister ship Tyrava, which was herself over 3,000 metres.

The most striking feature of Kaveth was a small forest growing on board the ship, including tafa trees, flowering firjill, and other plants the Kaveth clan had smuggled from their original home in the south-tropical continent of ch'Havran.

History Augo - Eisn. Shortly before that, Kaveth called at the colony of Kavethti, populated by Clan Kaveth members, and the entire population of the colony boarded the ship, with their possessions, furniture and even the more movable industrial equipment, and left to join the fight. Alarmed senators estimated that there could be "tens of thousands" of them able to join any ground assault. In fact, this was probably an underestimate; out of their total populations, Tyrava and Kaveth offered to provide 280,000 troops to the attack on the Two Worlds.
