Alpha Maluria VI was a planet, the sixth planet of the Alpha Maluria system, located not far from the edge of Federation space near its border with the Klingon Empire in the galaxy's Alpha or Beta Quadrants. It was the homeworld of a Federation member civilization.
History and specifics[]
It appeared blue and green with some cloud cover from space. Its one moon appeared purple. The Malurian Hall of Government was situated in the mother city. Terrain included rivers and valleys. Life included some predatory animals.
In the late 2260s, civil war broke out between two religious factions, Manteil and Obirrhat, a dispute related to movement of a herd of cubaya animals considered sacred by one faction which were trampling areas sacred to the other faction. The Federation starship USS Enterprise brought Ambassador Marlin Farquhar there to help resolve the dilemma. Kirk's solution was planting Klingon fireblossoms around the holy sites, which repelled the cubaya without violating any taboos. (TOS novel: Faces of Fire)
