I know its not on the map but where would it be in relation to the STO galaxy map.
Same goes with Tholia.
PS: will we get a Ferenginar to visit some point if only to use it for planetary bombardment practice for KDF/ Rom players.

Why only KDF and Rom? :rolleyes:
If I remember the old FASA maps correctly, Ferenginar would be somewhere "North West" of Memory Alpha on the current map and the Tholians would be somewhere "under" the Klingon Empire.
But I don't think any planet was set in stone in the shows aside from Vulcan and Earth.
It could also be introduced as a fleet holding, an embassy/business venture and I think that would be interesting as well. Perhaps if they ever did either one they could give the D'Kora a proper spaced out bridge that has more square footage than a shuttle interior, hell maybe a whole interior as well. Would love to see that. More ship interior customization would be a great thing to add, even if it is for vanity's sake.
This widely regarded as close to canon as you can get when it comes to Star Trek's planets and locations. Although the map in STO is not entirely "correct" to this book, which is ok.
It should be on the far side of Xinid space from Earth. I remember that after Picard's first ship was attacked by Ferengi he had to retreat back to a Xindi station.
The Ferengi Alliance would be along the western edge of that, which would put them to the north of Cardassian space. They're probably sharing a border with the Tzenkethi to the north.
It's a bit silly to use cardinal directions to describe 3D space but there you go.
It wasn't the Xindi that we know of from Enterprise. The station in particular is Xendi Station, in the Xendi Sabu system. Pronounced differently too.

Betazed used to be on the STO map between the Sirius and Beta Ursae sectors. They removed it for some reason. Pretty sure I have a screen shot somewhere.
Did the Breen attack Betazed when they aligned with the Dominion?
Just double checked Memory Alpha and you sir are totally correct.
However it would make a nice retcon to have them be one in the same. It would provide a location for the Xindi & the Delphic Expanse (or rather where it used to be... I imagine it's not the same with those spheres gone).
Plus it could explain why the Ferengi were encountered in ENT but not seen again until TNG. After that kerfuffle in the last season of Enterprise I wouldn't be shocked if the Xindi basically shut their region off to through traffic. By the time of TNG relations have thawed, they open the doors to explorers and viola the two groups have a second first meeting.
I love to brainstorm possible explanations for things. :cool:
Then again, STO doesn't always adhere to these maps, largely because they're just guesses as there's no real 'canon' map. For example, the Klingon Empire as depicted in-game should have twice the map space it currently seems to have. Basically, another sector block. . .probably to the south of Omega Leonis.
