They were the most successful empire due to their stupendously advanced gateway technology that completely eliminated the need for starships of any kind(TNG "Contagion").Ģnd was the T'kon empire, ~600,000 years before present, which spanned most of the alpha and beta quadrant.
There were few corners of the galaxy they didn't control. The empire spanned from Iconia in the far stretches of the alpha quadrant near Orion space in the RNZ, to Vandros IV on the other edge of the Gamma quadrant (DS9 "To The Death"), to Vaduaar Prime in the Delta quadrant. Light years, with a membership of over 150 worlds and over 1,000īiggest was Iconian empire ~200 000 years ago it spanned the entire galaxy not including a few systems on the very outer rim (stealing lingo from Star Wars).
- Galaxy Map (800圆00,jpg) - This looks like it might be the one shown on VoyagerĮDIT Found a reference on Memory Alpha as to the Federation's size:īy the early 2370s, the Federation's territory was spread across 8,000. All the other maps look fan-made or from a game to me and are fairly inconsistent: I thought the Vaadwaur from VOY also mentioned them, but after looking through Memory Alpha, I seem to be mis-remembering that.Īs for the sizes of the current powers, I think a map was once shown on Voyager, but I can't remember for sure. The Iconian civilization, however, slightly more is known: Their portals have been found in the Alpha quadrant ( TNG 2x11 "Contagion") and the Gamma quadrant ( DS9 4x23 "To the Death"). The Tkon Empire was described as massive, but little is known about them. Referenced in The Next Generation, the Iconians and the Tkon are the next candidates. If so, the Slavers had conquered the entire Milky Way galaxy roughly 1 billion years ago: Memory Alpha: Slaver As for the largest ever, that depends on whether you're including the Animated Series.
