Romulan

The Romulans are a fictional extraterrestrial humanoid species in the science fiction franchise ''Star Trek''. First appearing in the original ''Star Trek'' series in the 1966 episode "Balance of Terror", they have since made appearances in all the main later ''Star Trek'' series: ''The Animated Series'', ''The Next Generation'', ''Deep Space Nine'', ''Voyager'' and ''Enterprise''. In addition, they have appeared in various spin-off media, and prominently in the two films ''Star Trek: Nemesis'' (2002) and ''Star Trek'' (2009).
Throughout the series, they are generally depicted as antagonists, and are usually at war with or in an tenuous truce with the United Federation of Planets. On extremely rare occasions, they have allied with the Federation.
The Romulans also act as a counterpoint to the logical Vulcan race, whom they resemble and with whom they share a common ancestry. As such, the Romulans are characterized as passionate, cunning, and opportunistic — in every way the opposite of the logical and "cold" Vulcans. The Romulans are the dominant race of the Romulan Star Empire. Although ''Star Trek Star Charts'' place the Romulan Empire's territory in the Beta Quadrant of the galaxy in ''Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'', they are referred to as an Alpha Quadrant power.
The Romulans were created by Paul Schneider, who said "it was a matter of developing a good Romanesque set of admirable antagonists ... an extension of the Roman civilization to the point of space travel". There are some differences in their history and the way they are portrayed on television, in the motion pictures and in several books by Diane Duane, called the ''Rihannsu'' series, after the term they use to refer to themselves in their Romulan native language.
==Biology==

The Romulans began as a revolutionary group of Vulcans who refused to accept the Vulcan philosopher Surak's teachings of the complete suppression of emotions. At some point in their shared history, this dissident group left the planet of Vulcan, eventually settling on the planets Romulus and Remus. In the original series episode "Balance of Terror", Spock notes that while the events during the period of Surak are well documented (as per episodes that detail such like "The Savage Curtain"), he is uncertain about their connections to the Romulans. He does state that he thinks them a likely offshoot of Vulcan. The Chase (Star Trek: The Next Generation) implies that Romulans, Vulcans, Cardassians, Klingons and Humans share a common ancestry.
Like Vulcans, Romulans have pointed ears, upswept eyebrows, and copper-based blood (Hemocyanin) that is green when oxygenated in the arteries and copper or rust-colored when deoxygenated in the veins. In the original series, Romulans were essentially indistinguishable from Vulcans in appearance, but subsequent series and films introduced a V-shaped ridge above the bridge of their nose, a similar prosthetic make-up development to that of the Klingons. Like Vulcans, Romulans are almost always depicted as having dark or black hair.
Romulans share the longevity common to their Vulcan cousins. In "Unification", the Romulan Senator Pardek shared a friendship with Ambassador Spock lasting at least 80 years. Romulans also have in common with Vulcans physical strength superior to that of humans. However, the similarities end when it comes to Vulcans' mental abilities, which the Romulans do not share.
