ALPHA QUADRANT The Alpha Quadrant would be located between 6 and 9 o'clock positions if the plane of the galaxy were seen as a clock face with the 6 o'clock position bisecting the , the Cardassian Union , the Ferengi Alliance and the Breen Confederacy . BETA QUADRANT The Beta Quadrant would be located between the 3 and 6 o'clock if the Plane Of The Galaxy were seen as a clock face with the 6 o'clock position bisecting Earth 's Solar System . The reason why the United Federation Of Planets and Earth is right on the edge of the Beta Quadrant is to make previous references to '' Quadrant '' made in the original series, its movies, and early episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation consistent (prior to this the term "quadrant" was used interchangeably with "sector"). The Beta Quadrant is home to the Klingon Empire , Romulan Star Empire , Gorn Republic , Son'a and Metron Consortium as well as a portion of the Federation, including Vulcan . Parts of the Romulan and Klingon empires spill into the Alpha Quadrant, and thus the Romulans and Klingons are still referred to as Alpha Quadrant Powers (possibly analogous to the former Soviet Union having been considered a Western power, though it was physically located mostly in the east). GAMMA QUADRANT The Gamma Quadrant is located between the 9 and 12 o'clock positions if the plane of the galaxy were seen as a clock face with the 6 o'clock position bisecting the Sol system. In Star Trek the Bajoran Wormhole , near the Deep Space Nine space station in the Bajor -B'hava'el system in the Alpha Quadrant, leads there. The Gamma Quadrant is primarily ruled by The Dominion , although large portions remain unexplored. DELTA QUADRANT The Delta Quadrant is the Quadrant of the ''. Star Trek Races that come from the Delta Quadrant include the Borg (the dominant species in this quadrant), the Kazon , the Vidiian , Talaxian s, Ocampan s, and the Hirogen . Species 8472 was first encountered in this quadrant, although they are not native to this region or physical dimension. Curiously, this arrangement results in:
The order of the quadrants is therefore neither clockwise nor counterclockwise. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS
