Talna III was the third planet of the Talna system. Talna III was settled by Orions, who founded a Colony there in July 1037 CE (reference stardate −10/3707). This marked the greatest ever extent of Orion space. However, the Colony was later abandoned. This presumably occurred during the Reverse of Orion history. Much later, in the late 22nd century, Talna III was settled by Federation citizens, including Andorians, Humans, and Vulcans. The Orions were incensed, and "Talna" became a symbol of Federation desires to annihilate them (FASA RPG module: The Orions: Book of Common Knowledge).
