Antica

Antica

Antica was an inhabited major planet of the Beta Renner system in Sector 500. This was the homeworld of the Anticans, a warp-capable canine-like species.

Since achieving spaceflight, Antica had been at war with the neighboring planet Selay. Prior to stardate 41249, Starfleet had detected Ferengi contacts on this planet. In 2364, Antica and Selay both applied for Federation membership. (TNG: "Lonely Among Us")

Later that year, prior to stardate 41775, the USS Heart of Gold was advised by the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation to take precautions in surveying Sector 500, such as avoiding certain subsectors in this sector. This request was supported by Starfleet Tactical Command. The reason given for the precautions was that the Federation was in diplomatic negotiations with the Antican government. (TNG: "Conspiracy", okudagram)

According to the Star Trek: Star Charts ("United Federation of Planets I"; "United Federation of Planets II"), Antica was located in the Alpha Quadrant and, in 2378, was listed as a Federation member.
