Jump to: navigation, search

"Featured articles" are some of the Memory Alpha articles that we believe are particularly comprehensive and well-written. However, we can't keep track of all of the thousands of articles that Memory Alpha contains – not even the really good ones. If you find an article that you believe belongs on the list, please nominate it.

Each week, one of our featured articles is selected to be the Article of the Week, which is displayed on the main page. To suggest an article for this honor, see Article of the Week. Articles in bold have already been on the main page and are ineligible to be featured there again. For a complete alphabetical list of articles, see the category page.

Note: If you believe an article listed here does not deserve to be featured, please nominate it for removal. Administrators should also remember to always add new articles here when they become featured.

Damar, a Cardassian male
Damar, a Cardassian male

Cardassians are a humanoid species from the Alpha Quadrant. They are native to the planet Cardassia Prime, capital world of the Cardassian Union. Known throughout the Alpha Quadrant for their ruthlessness, the Cardassians became one of the greatest enemies of the Federation and Klingon Empire when they joined the Dominion in 2373. Their xenophobic attitude towards other species was well established throughout the quadrant after the Setlik III massacre during the Cardassian Wars, as well as when their atrocities from the Occupation of Bajor were revealed after their withdrawal in 2369.

In its ancient history, before Cardassia became a military dictatorship, the Cardassian society was known as the Hebitians. It was home to fine art and beautiful architecture. Once the Hebitian civilization fell into decay from lack of natural resources, millions of Cardassians were starving and the planet was subjected to utter anarchy. Though the Hebitian society and way of life eventually became extinct, the remaining Cardassians turned to the military to solve their problems. This began the Cardassian policy of expansion into the galaxy, to provide the much-needed natural resources to sustain its population. (TNG: "Chain of Command, Part II"; DS9: "Duet")
