Minos Korva
Minos Korva was a Federation planetary system in Sector 21527 of the Alpha Quadrant. The system was eleven light years from the McAllister C-5 Nebula. The history of this system in the 24th century was found in the file "Summary System Report 58383-98: Minos Korva".

History

23rd century 
By the late 2250s, the civilization in this system had developed warp travel and had or was in the process of being inducted into the .

In 2259, the location of this system was labeled on a stellar cartography chart that was seen on the 's ready room viewscreen. The system's symbol had a blue color, indicating that it was affiliated with the Federation. ()

24th century 
In the 2340s, on stardate 20483, this system was surveyed by the . The starship reported that the primary  was a main sequence G-class star with twelve planets. One of these planets was an uninhabited M-class planet in the primary habitable zone.

In the same decade, on stardate 20843, the  completed a long range cometary survey of this system. The survey revealed an anomalous population of rocky methane ice bodies. It was nearly 12% greater than results predicted by the Tezber Planetary Evolution Models. 

Six months after the survey, Secretary of Exploration M. Piller orchestrated the annexation of this system into Federation territory. The secretary put in a recommendation for an extended range security perimeter to be established for this system; however, this was deferred.

In the Federation-Cardassian War, the Cardassians attempted to annex Minos Korva. The Cardassian Central Command claimed that a Federation stellar cartography map was in error. According to the Cardassians, the border's position through several sectors was the result of a miscalibration by a reference beacon and that the border should be adjusted 4.7 light years towards the galactic center. Soon after, the Cardassians announced their intent to occupy the system and to establish orbital outposts around three planets. The intention was not carried out in response to objections by Federation authorities, who accompanied their words with the assignment of three  starships to Sector 21528.

In 2369, the system was approximately four light years from the Federation-Cardassian border. In that year, Starfleet believed that the Cardassians would launch an invasion of Minos Korva from the McAllister C-5 Nebula. The invasion was avoided because the , under the command of Captain Edward Jellico, preemptively prevented the invasion by detecting the Cardassian fleet hiding in the nebula. ()

 mentioned this incident at Minos Korva when he described William T. Riker's tendency for insubordination to Arctus Baran in 2370. (; )

In 2399, the location of Minos Korva was labeled in a star chart that was in Fleet Admiral Kirsten Clancys office at Starfleet Headquarters. The system was in or near to Federation space. ()

32nd century 
In 3189, the location of Minos Korva was denoted on a holographic star chart of the galaxy at Federation Headquarters. ()
