How many important conflicts was the Solar Cooperative in before the Romulan War?
The war with the still-mysterious 'Romulans' (a reporting name assigned by Solar Intelligence, because they had to call them something) took place about a hundred years after the Genetics Wars, and about fourty to fifty years after the Solar Cooperative's first contact with the Vulcanians. That's plenty of time for Terran humanity to get involved in a few wars, police actions, and such, whether as a direct participant or as a bystander. Please include the number when you vote. 1. The first half of the 22nd century was fairly peaceful in this part of the galaxy, so the Solar Cooperative's Space Patrol had little in the way of military action beyond pirates and small skirmishes before the war began (e. g. trouble with the Nausicaans and/or the Orions, but nothing big). 2. There was at least one significant war in that period (e. g. a war between the Vulcans and the Andorians), which the Solar Cooperative was peripherally involved in, and may have served as a venue for diplomacy between the belligerant parties. 3. There was at least one significant war in that period, which the Solar Cooperative participated in as one of the belligerant parties (a bad First Contact with the Kaa from GURPS Aliens could do this, but is far from the only option). 4. The Solar Cooperative was involved in several wars during the period (perhaps something like the four Human-Kzin Wars occurred in this timeline, as suggested in the cartoon). 5. Something that I haven't thought of (please specify). EDIT: Option 4 wins via a tie breaker.
