Izar is a colony at the outer rim of Federation space in the Deneb Sector. It is one of the oldest human colonies, settled in the late-22nd century, and is thus hugely developed and populated for one so far from Earth on such a distant frontier. It is one of the main hubs of life and operations in the entire sector, and a key location for regional commerce and security. In 2401, it was one of the territories of the sector occupied by the Dominion Lost Fleet.
The Lost Fleet
When the Dominion Lost Fleet invaded, Izar was one of their first targets. Unprepared for an assault remotely on this scale, Izar quickly surrendered. The Dominion occupied the system and rapidly turned its industrial infrastructure to support their war efforts, and kept the population under martial law. Several resistance efforts sprung up over the weeks of occupation, but all were violently suppressed by Jem'Hadar soldiers.
Starfleet considered the liberation of Izar one of its highest priorities in the Deneb Sector, both for the system's military and economic value and for its cultural significance. Endeavour Squadron was dispatched to retake the system, which they accomplished after a hard-won campaign and significant losses, and with the assistance of a strike force of the Third Order sent by the Cardassian Union.
Rebuilding
Since April 2401, Izar has sought to rebuild from the ravages of the Dominion. Its responsibility is not only to its own population, but the system's significance has made it a hub for recovery efforts across the system, and the most significant base of operations beyond Farpoint Station or Starbase 514. It is a particularly popular source of aid for those who have lost trust in Starfleet after the organisation's tepid response to the Lost Fleet's invasion.
The people of Izar have a long history with the Federation and will not abandon it, but at the dawn of the 25th century, they are eager to stand on their own feet again, and ensure no further calamity will befall their people.
