Jevalan is a Class M planet located in the Doltiri star system. The planet is within the territory of the Cardassian Union. During the Cardassian Occupation the Cardassians maintained several forced labor camps on the surface of the planet, including the Olanda labor camp, which they imprisoned Bajorans and their families. The Cardassian military soon evacuated the planet, leaving equipment, former prisoners, and even some of their own people behind. Several Federation starships soon arrived to assist the Bajorans and Cardassians left behind on the planet, including USS Enterprise.
