Tret Akleen

Tret Akleen was a male Cardassian who founded the Cardassian Union. The Akleen sector of Cardassia City was named after him.

In 2374, Elim Garak suggested that the Federation Alliance should attack Ventani II, Akleen's planet of birth. It was ruled out as a target as it had little strategic value and the Jem'Hadar did not consider it sacred like the Cardassians did. 

In 2376, the Cardassian people voted in a competition between the Directorate, the Reunion Project and other political parties on Cardassia on the anniversary of Akleen's founding of the Union.
