Shakaar Edon

Shakaar Edon was the First Minister of the Republic of Bajor from 2371 to 2376. A former leader in the Bajoran Resistance, Shakaar achieved prominence as the leader of a major anti-Cardassian cell. He defeated Winn Adami in 2371 and presided over Bajor during the Dominion War, keping it nominally neutral but a de facto Federation ally. Shakaar's government also prevented the Romulan Star Empire from fortifying a Bajoran moon, even order the Bajoran Milita to blockade the moon in the face of the Imperial Romulan Fleet.

In 2376, during a goodwill tour of the Federation, Shakaar Edon was infested by a Parasite; the Parasite infesting him forced him to issue orders to Second Minister Asarem Wadeen to stonewall peace negotiations with the Cardassian Union; at the ceremony signing the documents bringing the Republic of Bajor into the Federation, Shakaar was assassinated by Heziki Gard, a joined Trill who had discovered his infestation status.
