The Worlds of the Federation is a reference book guide to the planets and cultures of the Federation and its neighbors, by author Shane Johnson.

Description[]

Shane Johnson, bestselling author of Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise, takes the reader on an imaginative, fictional journey into the Star Trek universe. Based on the Star Trek adventures (including Star Trek: The Next Generation), this book uses hundreds of star charts and line drawings as well as a rich text to outline the history of the worlds visited by the starship Enterprise.

The Worlds of the Federation also investigates the unaligned and hostile alien races of Star Trek, from the fierce warriors of the Klingon Empire to the enigmatic, all-powerful Organians. And as a special bonus, we've included a spectacular, full-color insert of Star Trek's most exotic alien lifeforms featuring paintings by noted science fiction illustrator Don Ivan Punchatz.

Contents[]

• preface by Lieutenant Commander Data of the USS Enterprise-D
• brief overview of Federation history

Background[]

• The given stardate of 82965.4 follows the format begun with Star Trek: The Next Generation, but 40 years later. This is at odds with the mid-2360s depiction of the Star Trek universe. The book was published in 1989, which corresponds to TNG Season 2 and the year 2365, which had stardates beginning at 42000.0.
• Data writes the Preface to the book in first person. All other characters are referenced only.
