The "We're only here to help" story has a lot of parallels in Earth history. You might compare Bajor vs Cardassia to Poland vs USSR. What was interesting about DS 9 was that it felt more realistic than other Trek series. The politics was grittier, there was also a rough cosmopolitan feel to the station which contained a bar, casino and hologram center run by the Ferengi, a Klingon restaurant, Sisko couldn't function without his Klingon Raktajino, while O'Brien and Bashir drank beer in the pub after work like Brits and the Klingons were effectively space Mongols with Kayless as their Genghis Khan. Reminds me a lot of when I lived in Baku

Well the Bajorians established their first United World Govt. 14,000 years before DS9; had interstellar travel nearly 900 years before DS9; and were under alien occupation for the 50 years prior to DS9. Compared to Earth IRL we've had: 75 years de jure (0 years de facto) of a United World Govt.; 0 years of having tech to be able to have interstellar travel; and 0 years of alien occupation; its not too much of a shock their culture is more mono.

If you've ever wanted to try Bajoran Hasperat the recipe they used on the show is fairly simple.

But since Hasperat was supposed to be spicy and specifically mentioned brining you can use pickled chilis or jalapenos for it. It's actually not half bad.

I've tended to like Bajor not just for the 'oooh hey funny nose alien near wormhole.' But because we get time to know their arcitecture, their weight of history. Some aliens feel like a prefab trailer house rolled up with barely any furniture there. Technically servicable but very underwhelming. Others are like Bajorans, a home that you got to know with flaws and quirks and furniture that got added, taken away, and rearranged over time. Giving a very lived in feel to it all.

Reflecting on the concept that Kira was a terrorist by the showrunners on the documentary, I can't agree. Although I am sure innocent, uninvolved Bajorans died in some of her missions, she wasn't specifically attacking Bajorans in order to create fear among them and use that fear to oust the Cardassians. Further, the Cardassian presence was entirely military, so no or too few civilian Cardassian targets were available to the Bajoran resistance, so most of their targets would be military targets. If most of their targets are military targets, then this is the line between a resistance and terrorism. A true resistance that isn't a terrorist movement does not create fear among their own population in order to resist the invading or occupying force. They primarily target military targets.
@3Rayfire3 жыл бұрын
She was a terrorist to Cardassians and a Freedom Fighter to Bajorans. The two classifications coexist. But while it was a military occupation, it also had a colonization component so there were Cardassian civilians, not that the Bajorans cared whether the Cardassians wore a uniform or not.

"From the moment we arrived on Bajor it was clear that we were the superior race, but they couldn't accept that. They wanted to be treated as equals, when they most certainly were not. Militarily, technologically, culturally - we were almost a century ahead of them in every way. We did not choose to be the superior race. Fate handed us that role and it would have been so much easier on everyone if the Bajorans had simply accepted their role. But no… day after day they clustered in their temples and prayed for deliverance and night after night they planted bombs outside of our homes. Pride… stubborn, unyielding pride. From the servant girl that cleaned my quarters, to the condemned man toiling in a labor camp, to the terrorist skulking through the hills of Dahkur Province… they all wore their pride like some… twisted badge of honor."--Gul Dukat.

Space is much bigger than we think and there are potentially many worlds in unoccupied systems. For that matter, why does any race technically need to be at odds with another? I'm sure Cardassia could have picked other worlds to strip mine but it seemed more personal with the Bajorans. They wanted to break the Bajorans, likely having to do with the first contact theory. But subjugation is a pretty common theme in ST. The Remans and Kazon were other slave races.

Bajorans are some of the biggest bad-asses in the Star Trek galaxy, I mean, just look at how Shaxs went out in Lower Decks

@@cmdrtianyilin8107 What? Kira wasn't a religious extremist, she was a guerilla fighter who just happened to be a religious adherent. When the Cardassians needed training to fight the Dominion they sent Kira to train them. I don't see how To qualifies, all she did was run off and join Starfleet, then leave Starfleet to join the Maquis. Other than that you have interesting metrics for bad ass.

What about their biology? Different and similar types of organs? Types of blood? Lifespans? Mating with other species? What about their economy? The origin of the earrings? You have a lot to cover in the next video.
