In Thy Image
- (a/k/a The Motion Picture) 209 CE
- Several alien races in this film were represented in Arcadia:
- Sentient crystaloids in the Heart and Soul nebulæ created holoduplicates of this era's USS Enterprise and its crew.
The Wrath of Khan
- Khan Singh and his supermen were later reborn (TSFS, below).
The Search for Spock
- The Mutara explosion "Genesis effect" regenerated David Marcus and Kruge & his two Klingons* (killed on the Genesis planet's surface), along with Khan Singh and Singh's supermen, all of whom the USS Chadwick retrieved. Some of Singh's loyalists felt death had absolved them of fealty and turned against him. A group led by Minerva and Kinnaird sought (unsuccessfully) to seize power, aided by Kruge. Singh finally lived up to the label of a "super" man by overcoming personal demons, and as atonement for past crimes, with Marcus, helped to defeat them. (From 1980s fan stories by Sasoriza.)
- *One of Kruge's Klingons was named Knorr.
- By Arcadia's time, the Federation perfected the Genesis process.
The Voyage Home
The Final Frontier
The Undiscovered Country
Generations
- In 319 CE, Arcadia time-traveled to 344 via the Nexus, on Starfleet orders to ascertain future effects of the Humanists. Arcadia discovered that the Nexus was a transtemporal being exploring the universe, interacting with lifeforms it encountered. This intelligence communicated through an "echo" of Tolian Soran, imprinted on the Nexus in 230 (similar to Guinan). Neria met this Soran, along with other El-Aurians killed in Generations. Supposedly able to leave the Nexus, they planned to physically exit aboard Arcadia and resume normal lives. (Whether this actually happened, or how, remains undetermined.)
- Neria used the Nexus, with Soran's guidance, to reclaim her son Kyle from 344 in an alternate future. This created a "temporal loop" which threatened spacetime in 324 CE, requiring Arcadia's second, permanent jump to 344, thereby neutralizing the threat.
- Soran's development of trilithium-based weapons had deadly fallout, as others used his application to destroy entire star systems, notably during the Federation civil war.
- In a possible future, inhabitants of Veridian IV discovered the USS Enterprise-D's remains on Veridian III, leading them to develop warp drive. (Odds make this unlikely, since the Federation would remove any evidence of its technology to prevent it.)
- Arcadia does not recognize Pocket Books Star Trek novels. "Shatnerverse" events (stemming from Generations) did not occur in Arcadia's timeline; thus, Kirk remained dead.
First Contact
Insurrection
- Ba'ku/Son'a origins figure prominently in Il'an Cherna's background.
Nemesis
- Shinzon's coup d’état, coupled with Spock's campaign ("Unification I"), led to the "Romulan reformation": The Romulan Star Empire was reformed into the Romulan Republic by 319.
- Donatra helped to facilitate this, by imitating Shinzon's example, seizing power with Reman help, led by a Reman viceroy who succeeded Vkruk. Donatra married this viceroy in order to achieve her plans.
- Conflict with a Romulan splinter state reclaiming the title of "Star Empire" weakened the Republic, allowing the Remans to expand their power.
- Differences in Starfleet uniforms and ship design, by 316 (as seen in Nemesis), remained in effect through at least 324 (visible in many crew images).
Star Trek (2009)
- In the Arc universe[1], Vulcan was not destroyed by Nero, nor did other events in Star Trek's alternate timeline which violate traditional canon (resulting from Nero) come about.
- Events which did transpire are those seen in, or which can be inferred from, the "primary" timeline, notably the destruction of Romulus, leading to the loss of Spock (with his ship) and Nero & the Narada (with the Narada crew).
