In the year 2381, the BORG invaded the Alpha and Beta Quadrants with a Collective campaign not of assimilation but total annihilation. The Federation and its allies mounted a desperate and ultimately doomed attempt to stem the BORG tide. Thanks to the intervention of an unknown and powerful species called the Caeliar, the BORG Collective no longer exist. Those who were touched by the Collective had their connections severed forever. Former drone have been freed from BORG implants in their bodies. The BORG drones who were still a part of the Collective disappeared with the Caeliar to parts unknown. The BORG now only reside in the memories and nightmares of those they touched.
 The Alpha and Beta Quadrants were saved from the brink of destruction. As a result of the invasion, over 63 billion lives were lost and dozens of worlds were decimated or left in ruins. Starfleet, who bore the brunt of invasion, was severely weakened having lost 40 % of ships and personnel. Due to the weakened state of the major powers of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants following the BORG invasion, desperation and piracy have run rampant. Alliances have been strained and new ones have been forged.
Now 6 years later, much has been done and the reconstruction effort continues. The Raeyan Sector has become a key source for the materials and resources needed for the rebuilding efforts of the quadrants. Makkus IV, called Nefestia by its inhabitants, is home to approximately 950 million beings and has become a waypoint for freighters, cargo vessels and other crafts from nearly all corners of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. Makkus IV has become a place where entrepreneurs and profiteers come seeking to profit from resource rich Makkus System. The Federation and Starfleet are tasked with the security of this vital system. Echelon Station does its part to keep the peace and protect Federation interests in the Makkus System.
