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 would not consider it sacred like the Cardassians did. (DS9 reference: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
- This refers to a scene deleted from the broadcast version of "Tears of the Prophets".
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. (DS9 novel: A Stitch in Time)
