Abraham Dannon

Abraham Dannon was a male Human who lived in the 22nd century.

Biography
He lived during the time of the Earth-Romulan War when the conflict ended inconclusively after staggering losses were faced by both sides. At the time, Dannon was the senior councilman who convinced his colleagues to make a peace offer to the Romulan Star Empire on Stardate 1/0909. The measure was ultimately accepted by a 1-vote margin. This led to a peace settlement made over subspace radio between them and their Romulan counterparts though no face-to-face meeting was made which left the appearance of the Romulans a mystery to Dannon.

After the establishment of the Romulan Neutral Zone by the treaty on Stardate 1/0909.10, Dannon's political aspirations were destroyed by the negotiations when his opponents claim that as chief negotiator he had given away too much of the disputed area to the Romulans. By Stardate 1/1303.21 at the age of 59, Dannon was assassinated by a spectator at a political party where he was scheduled to speak. Though he was considered a controversial and even despised figure in his own time, his contributions led him to be revered for his actions in the pursuit of peace.

The Terran civilian decoration for peace called The Dannon Prize was named in his honor. 


 * FASA maintains the view that the war was between the UFP and the Romulans and though its not stated, its presumed that he was a Human. Is it likely that since the Federation did not exist at the time of the Earth-Romulan War, that Dannon either represented Earth in the Coalition of Planets or possibly the Earth Alliance or perhaps the United Earth government.
