Sordinia IV

Sordinia IV was a habitable planet, the fourth in its star system, located in the Alpha or Beta Quadrant near Federation Starbase 23. The planet was inhabited by a sentient humanoid race known as the Sordinians.

Sordinia was rich in mineral wealth and proved a tempting target for numerous pirates and plunderers who in turn brought untold misery and destruction to the Sordinian civilization in the process. Things began to change in the 2250s when the United Federation of Planets established contact with the Sordinians and sought their admission into the Federation, which gained the support of Prime Vodis Vodanis. Soon Sordinia's mineral wealth was used by the Sordinian's to rebuild their cities and begin to thrive.
