Evora

The Evora are a sapient species of short, hairless humanoids who became warp capable in the year 2374. Only a year later, the United Federation of Planets allied themselves with them and made their homeworld a Federation protectorate, reasoning that, in the face of recent losses against the Borg and the Dominion, any new alliance would be desirable.

Members of this species have been observed to eat flowers, indicating that they might be herbivorous. Their world is classified as an M-class planet and their population is relatively small, at only 300 million. Their society is ruled by a Regent. Dancing seems to be an important aspect of their culture, as during the official ceremony of admission, Federation captain Jean-Luc Picard was expected to dance with the Evora regent.
