Nilor was a planet and the site of an Orion colony. In 1317 BCE (reference stardate -33/17), the first legal Orion-built and -crewed starships were launched from shipyards on Nilor, Bema and Sharu. These unarmed merchant vessels were intended for legitimate trade and were always open to inspection by the alien powers that dominated the Orions.
