Using force rather than [[diplomacy]], the Terran Empire is the counterpart of the [[United Federation of Planets]] and a military dictatorship ruled by an Emperor. In ''[[Star Trek Online]]'', it is a [[Faction#Minor non-playable factions|non-player faction]], using most of the same military assets as the Federation with cosmetic differences. == Culture == [[File:Terran Empire symbol.png|thumb|right|Emblem of the Terran Empire.|140px]] The Terran Empire was forged in several brutal wars. Treason and oppression are considered warranted means of advancement through the Empire's ranks. The Humans of the mirror universe (typically referred to as "[[Terran]]s") are openly nationalistic and fascistic, deeming themselves the born master race. == History == [[File:Terran Coup.png|thumb|300px|Terran forces from the 2250s]] === The First Terran Empire === Human literary works as far back as the 16th century show a divergence, except for Shakespeare. However no point of divergence from the Prime Universe has been established. The founding date of the Terran Empire is also unknown, but in 2155 it was said to have existed for "centuries" (suggesting at least the 20th century) and Roman-like allusions have been made by Terrans. In 2063 Zefram Cochrane killed the first [[Vulcan]] to set foot on [[Earth]] with a [[Zefram Cochrane Shotgun|shotgun]]. The Terrans looted the Vulcan ship and reverse-engineered its technology. The Terran flag is subsequently planted on [[Luna]] (by an astronaut in a 22nd century spacesuit) and Terran forces rapidly conquered [[Vulcan (planet)|Vulcan]], [[Andoria]], [[Tellar Prime]], Denobula, and Gorlan by the 2150s. In 2155 Rebels from oppressed worlds were on the verge of breaking the Empire's rule. The Empire was near total collapse until the {{mAlpha|ISS Enterprise (NX-01)|I.S.S. ''Enterprise''}} managed to capture the [[U.S.S. Defiant (Constitution Class)|U.S.S. Defiant]] (a Federation [[Constitution Class Cruiser|''Constitution''-class]] starship from the 23rd century), again infusing the oppressors with new advanced technology, giving them the advantage necessary to foster their dominance. By 2256, the thriving Empire had rendered [[Qo'noS]] uninhabitable, but still faced opposition from rebel forces; an alliance of Klingons, [[Vulcan]]s, [[Andorian]]s and [[Tellarite]]s who were opposed to the Empire. Many of these rebels were, however, wiped out by the Emperor's flagship. The Emperor however subsequently disappeared in a coup attempt, and the coup leader and his forces were killed when the Emperor's flagship were destroyed. A transporter accident in [[23rd century|2267]] resulted in an exchange of personnel between the Prime and Mirror universes - the Captains of the [[U.S.S. Enterprise (NCC-1701)|U.S.S. ''Enterprise'']] and the {{mAlpha|ISS Enterprise (NCC-1701)|I.S.S. ''Enterprise''}} travel to their counterpart's ships. Prime [[James T. Kirk]] was able to convince {{mAlpha|Spock (mirror)|mirror Spock}} that the barbaric ways of the Empire need to change. Spock subsequently rose to become Commander-in-Chief of the Empire and began to implement a policy of change (peace and disarmament). Unfortunately these reforms also weakened the Empire and made it vulnerable to conquest by the [[Klingon-Cardassian Alliance]]. The Empire fell, and Terrans and Vulcans became a slave caste of the Alliance. === Terran Rebellion === In [[2372]], inspired by their prime universe counterparts, a group of Terran rebels working on [[Terok Nor (mirror)|Terok Nor (DS9's mirror counterpart)]] manage to take the station from the Alliance. Using stolen plans for the {{FedEscort|Defiant}}, the rebels build the {{ISS|Defiant}} and succeed in pushing back Alliance forces. === Second Terran Empire === The Terran Resistance in the [[Bajor Sector]] eventually spread through the rest of the [[Alpha Quadrant|Alpha]] and [[Beta Quadrant]], eventually forming a Second Terran Empire. By the [[25th century]] this Empire reverted to its original aggressive nature, ruling oppressively over its territory and initiating a series of hostile incursions into the prime universe. The new emperor rose to power after a strange encounter gave him god-like powers. In [[2409]], Terran forces begin providing aid to [[True Way]] forces and the Empire begins a major incursion in the [[Badlands Battlezone|Badlands]]. Around the same time, the [[Orb of Possibilities]] is returned to mirror Bajor, aiding the rise of Captain [[Leeta (mirror)|Leeta]]. The following year, Admiral Leeta defeats the Iconians 200,000 years in the past and takes challenges the Emperor's power using a combination of future technology from the [[Temporal Liberation Front]] and aid from the [[Pah-wraith]]s. ({{Mission|Message from Another Universe V}}) In [[2410]], the {{ISS|Discovery}} was displaced from the [[23rd century]] and led to [[Sylvia Tilly (mirror)|Captain Killy]] seizing [[Pahvo]]. While her plans were thwarted, and the ''Discovery'' returned to the past, Killy remained at large. In [[2411]], the Terran Empire in the Mirror Universe has further expanded their diversity with [[Kuumaarke (mirror)|Kuumaarke]], a [[Lukari]] captain, and [[Player character (mirror)|their Inquisitor]], serving their ranks. Following the defeat of [[Wesley Crusher (mirror)|Emperor Wesley Crusher]], Leeta becomes Empress of the Terran Empire. ==Missions involved== ===Cardassian Struggle=== [[File:Terok Nor and Leeta (Mirror).png|thumb|right|[[Terok Nor (mirror)|Terok Nor]] and [[Leeta (mirror)|Leeta]] of the Terran Empire]] * {{mission|Spoils of War||ALL}}: The player discovers that the [[True Way]] have used the stolen [[Orb of Possibilities]] to open a portal to the Mirror Universe, and have been negotiating an alliance with Captain [[Leeta (mirror)|Leeta]] of the Terran Empire. * {{mission|Jabberwocky||ALL}}: The player travels to the Mirror Universe, confronts Captain Leeta, and returns the [[Orb of Possibilities]] to [[Hathon]] on [[Bajor]]. ===Ongoing Terran Incursion (Level 50+ PvE Missions and Battlezones)=== * {{mission|Mirror Invasion||ALL}}: The Empire attacks [[Vauthil Station]], sending dozens of warships led by a dreadnought. * {{Crossfaction}} [[Tholian Incursion|"Tholian Incursion"]]: An [[Terran Odyssey Dreadnought Cruiser|''Odyssey''-class Dreadnought Cruiser]] has been captured by the [[Tholian Assembly]] and is being held in a facility on [[Nukara Prime]]. * {{Mission|Crystalline Catastrophe||ALL}}: The [[Crystalline Entity]] will occasionally generate numerous [[interphasic rift]]s, allowing Terran Empire vessels to enter the battle and hamper the players' attempt to destroy the Entity. * {{mission|Counterpoint||ALL}}: Using the Orb of Possibilities, Leeta, now an Admiral, transports [[Terok Nor (mirror)|mirror-Terok Nor]] over to the prime universe. * {{mission|Assault on Terok Nor||ALL}}: After boarding mirror-Terok Nor and defeating Leeta, she beams out and the player retrieves the Orb of Possibilities, thereby returning Terok Nor to its universe. * {{Crossfaction}} [[Badlands Battlezone]]: Admiral Leeta leads a full-scale invasion of the Prime Universe in the {{ISS|Enterprise}}. ===Future Proof=== * {{mission|Temporal Reckoning||ALL}}: [[Leeta]] and her [[Terran]] forces join the [[Temporal Liberation Front]], claiming that the disappearance of [[U.S.S. Defiant (Constitution Class)|U.S.S. Defiant]] wasn't an accident, but [[Envoy]]'s gift to her Empire. Inside the Defiant's computer was a message just for her, promising her control over her own universe in exchange for assistance in the [[Temporal Cold War|Temporal War]]. As a thank-you, [[Leeta]] shoots [[Daniels]], killing him and restoring [[Envoy]]'s physical appearance. Leeta briefly engages the [[player]] and other temporal agents in the orbit of [[New Khitomer]], before regrouping with the rest of TLF forces and leaving for [[Procyon V]]. * {{mission|Ragnarok||ALL}}: When her forces fail to keep the [[player]] from reaching the [[U.S.S. Enterprise (NCC-1701-J)|U.S.S. Enterprise]] and delivering the [[Tox Uthat]], [[Leeta]] tries to defeat the [[player]] herself, but ultimately fails. Unsatisfied with the direction of the battle, Leeta orders her forces to retreat, leaving [[Noye]] and his forces behind to deal with their "foolish errand". ===Mirror of Discovery=== [[File:Terran Best.png|thumb|350px|Captain Killy on Pahvo]] * {{mission|Para Pacem||ALL}}: [[Sylvia Tilly (mirror)|Captain Sylvia Tilly]] and the {{ISS|Discovery}} is displaced to the prime universe in [[2410]] along with a hostile Klingon fleet.

Ships in Imperial Starfleet are similar to their Prime Universe counterparts and may have been created from stolen plans. Unlike these however, some Imperial ships are capable of [[Ability: Cloak|cloaking]]. Instead of the 22nd century vessels which were adorned with yellow markings, 25th century starships utilize red markings instead. Additionally, Imperial ships use an "ISS" prefix ('''I'''mperial '''S'''tar '''S'''hip) instead of the prime Starfleet's "USS" ('''U'''nited '''S'''tar '''S'''hip). <div class="sitemap1"> ===Starship classes=== * {{pips|0}} [[Terran Danube Runabout]] * {{pips|0}} [[Terran Peregrine Fighter]] * {{pips|1}} [[Terran Frigate]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Cruiser]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Escort]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Galaxy Class Cruiser]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Intrepid Class Science Vessel]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Nebula Class Science Vessel]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Rhode Island Science Vessel]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Science Vessel]] * {{pips|2}} [[Troop Transport (Terran)|Troop Transport]] * {{pips|3}} [[Terran Armitage Class Escort Carrier]] * {{pips|3}} [[Terran Command Cruiser]] * {{pips|3}} [[Terran Multi-Mission Explorer]] * {{pips|3}} [[Terran Prometheus Class Escort]] * {{pips|4}} [[Temporal Dreadnought]] * {{pips|4}} [[Terran Galaxy Dreadnought Cruiser|Terran ''Galaxy-X'' Dreadnought]] * {{pips|4}} [[Terran Odyssey Dreadnought Cruiser|Terran ''Odyssey'' Dreadnought]] * {{pips|4}} [[Terran Typhoon Class Battleship]] </div> <div class="sitemap2"> ===Ground Forces=== * {{pips|1}} [[Terran Ensign Engineering Officer]] * {{pips|1}} [[Terran Ensign Medic]] * {{pips|1}} [[Terran Ensign Science Officer]] * {{pips|1}} [[Terran Ensign Tactical Officer]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Lieutenant Engineering Officer|Terran Lieutenant Engineering]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Lieutenant Medic]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Lieutenant Science Officer]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Lieutenant Tactical Officer]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Combat Engineer]] * {{pips|2}} [[Terran Combat Medic]] * {{pips|3}} [[Terran Commander Security]] * {{pips|3}} [[Terran Commander Engineering Officer]] * {{pips|3}} [[Terran Commander Science Officer]] * {{pips|4}} [[Mirror Chief]] </div> <div class="sitemap3"> ===Bosses=== * {{pips|4}} Admiral [[Leeta (mirror)|Leeta]] * {{pips|4}} [[Sylvia Tilly (mirror)|Captain Killy]] *{{pips|4}} [[Kuumaarke (mirror)|Captain Kuumaarke]] * {{pips|4}} [[Evelyn Savea]] (mirror) * {{pips|4}} [[Coraline Fletcher]] (mirror) * {{pips|4}} [[Andrei]] (mirror) * {{pips|4}} [[Gerry Lifeson]] (mirror) * {{pips|4}} [[Desmond]] (mirror) * {{pips|4}} [[Orinoco]] (mirror) * {{pips|4}} [[Ian Kwon]] (mirror) * {{pips|4}} [[Lee]] (mirror) * {{pips|4}} [[Peart]] (mirror) *{{pips|4}} [[Player character (mirror)]] </div> {{clear}} ==Member species== The Empire is known to constitute members of the following races: * [[Terran]]s ''(primary)'' * [[Andorian]]s * [[Aenar]] * [[Bajoran]]s * [[Benzite]]s * [[Denobulan]]s *[[Lukari]] * [[Orion]]s * [[Tellarite]]s * [[Vulcan]]s ==Notes== * In Star Trek Online this [[faction]] is sometimes referred to as the "Terran Federation". * Some [[Tholian Assembly|Tholian]] vessels create [[interphasic rift]]s upon destruction, though which Terran Empire ships spawn and fight for the Tholians. No explanation for this has surfaced yet. These rifts can also be opened en-masse by the [[Crystalline Entity]] in {{mission|Crystalline Catastrophe}}. * Terran vessels had a purple coloration until June 2012, when they were changed to reflect the canon look of the {{mAlpha|ISS Enterprise (NX-01)|I.S.S. ''Enterprise''}} from {{mAlpha|In a Mirror, Darkly (episode)|"In a Mirror, Darkly"}}. In October 2015, Terran ships were changed yet again to feature red paint schemes (older playable Mirror Universe starships retained their yellowish detailing). * Before the revamp of the [[Cardassian Struggle]] episode arc, [[Terran]]s appeared in three of its missions: {{mission|Tear of the Prophets}}, {{mission|Crack in the Mirror}} and {{mission|The Other Side}}. Led by [[James O'Brien]], they began their incursion into Prime Universe and tried to redirect the [[Bajoran wormhole]] so that thousands of Imperial ships could conquer the [[Federation]]. * Some Terran mob vessels have the registry prefix NC instead of NCC. Whether this is a bug or intentional is unknown. ==See also== * [[:Category:Playable Mirror Universe starships|Playable Mirror Universe starships]] * [[:Category:Mirror Universe Items|Usable Mirror Universe Items]] ==External links== {{MA Link}} {{MB Link}} {{Factionnav/Terran}} {{FactionNav}} [[Category:Terran Empire|*]] [[Category:Mirror Universe]]
