Find The Romulan War on STR Blogspot
THE ROMULAN WAR ("TRW") is based on the Star Trek universe created by Gene Roddenberry and documents the critical historic event leading to the creation of the Federation - the war between Earth and the Romulan Empire. It vividly embraces the entire sweep of the 22nd century's most devastating war. The social and political events of the era. The vicious space battles and the grief-stricken home fronts. The heroic adventures of captain and cadet alike. From the ambush of Salem One to the Battle of Cheron, THE ROMULAN WAR tells stories of heroism and courage alongside tales of loss and brutality which affected countless millions. Earth's developments in technology, tactics, and diplomacy are examined, as is the political and social unrest which eventually led to the Romulans' humiliating defeat. Captain's logs, eyewitness video, journal entries, and period photographs combine with "found footage" of the war's key conflicts to realistically depict a world where mankind's very survival is at stake.
