Second Battle of Berengaria

The Battle of Berengaria was a battle fought between the United Earth and the Romulan Star Empire during the Earth-Romulan War.

Background
Berengaria VII was to be the location of Earth Starfleet's Starbase 1 and construction had begun on the facility when Romulan forces invaded the system and wiped out the base as well as a Vulcan research outpost. As Earth continued to suffer losses, Starfleet gathered a fleet of 14 ships together and placed it under the command of Captain Jonathan Archer, whose orders were to retake Berengaria. 

The Battle
Earth forces entered the Berengaria system at impulse to avoid the warp detection grid, and immediately engaged Romulan warships. At the same time the Starfleet vessels launched drop ships filled with MACOs toward the planet. As the dropships landed, MACO troops began engaged the Romulan ground forces and were eventually able to push them back. This forced the last Romulanns to evacuate onto the remaining Romulan warships and retreat from the system, leaving it to the Earth forces. 

Aftermath
Romulan forces are defeated handing Earth its first decisive victory; however, seven were destroyed, hundreds of MACO troops were killed, and no Romulan technology was recovered for study.
