Built by Bajoran slaves during the Cardassian occupation
Known as Terok Nor by the Cardassians, and Deep Space Nine by the Federation
Most important meetings are held in the wardroom
Station was under the command of the Cardassian Empire for over twenty years, until their withdrawl in 2369, whereby the station became Bajoran, under the operation of Starfleet as Deep Space Nine
The Dominion briefly overtook the station in 2374
During the Cardassian Occupation, the station orbited Bajor, and was used not only for military protection, but also for refining uridium ore
Previously called by its original creators "Terok Nor," this old Cardassian mining station orbiting the planet of Bajor was built in 2351 and abandoned 18 years later as the Cardassian occupation of Bajor came to a close and the Cardassian retreated from the system.
Soon after, at the request of the Bajoran provisional government, Starfleet assumed command of Deep Space Nine and gave it a Starfleet designation. When the Bajoran wormhole was discovered nearby, linking the Bajoran system to the Gamma Quadrant, what had once been a backwater station became a bustling hub of commercial, scientific, and strategic significance, reflecting Bajor's new-found independence and strength within the Alpha Quadrant.
