There were at least a dozen distinct "skirmishes" in this conflict, which finally petered out in 2411, when the [[Gorn Hegemony]] turned its attention to the mineral-rich Federation border. | ||
Since the end of the [[Tholian/Gorn Conflict]], there had been no meaningful contact between the Federation and the Tholians until 2418, when ambassadors on both sides met to discuss forging an economic treaty and a trade agreement. These negotiations, however, would not be without incident. | |||
