Location of Federation HQ post The Burn

I'm guessing Coppelius.

*I believe there have been rumors that this season will tie into Picard in some way
 
Qo'noS. The Klingons were part of the Federation during the battle of Procyon V


The pronunciation was kept in Bajorans, they're not Bay-joar-ans XD

Found an interesting theory about this on Reddit:

"It seems that the big reveal will be that the Federation headquarters has moved to Qo’noS. Secondarily, I think this is likely because of the Klingons’ conspicuous absence after almost two seasons of dominating the story line. Primarily, however, this is because of the Pidgin word for Federation: “V’draysh” (DSC S03E01, “That Hope is You: Part I”).

Assuming the Empire joined the Federation at some point between the 25th and 30th centuries, it’s reasonable to expect tlhIngan Hol (the Klingon Language) to have become a second interstellar lingua franca. This could have led to the Pidgin that Book referenced in DSC S03E01.

In which case, it’s entirely reasonable that “Federation” may have been treated as a proper noun and rendered in the orthography of tlhIngan Hol rather than translated to its Klingon equivalent, “DIvI’.” In which case, “Federation” would be rendered as /veDIreySon/. However, tlhIngan Hol tends towards shorter words, so we can reasonably expect the unaccented sounds /e/, /I/, and /on/ to disappear. That leaves us with /vDreyS/, which sounds almost exactly like “V’draysh.” "

I would really like seeing this happen :techman:

I would guess it's a planet called "Terra Firma", as that's an upcoming double episode. Literal translation from Latin is "firm earth", but we'd say "new land" or "new earth" now.
 
Bajor would be extremely strategic what with the stable wormhole and access to the Gamma Quadrant.

I wonder if The Burn affected the Gamma Quadrant at all?
:shrug:

This. That wormhole is probably the most important place in the Alpha Quadrant right now. And how did the Dominion fare? Did their ships use dilithium too?
 
what can I say? Trust Wikipedia or trust someone who has actually studied 7 years of Latin and whose main language still use uses the saying.

Or look it up on a dictionary. ;)

Terra Firma means ashore - a safe haven reached after a long voyage. In Italian it's terra ferma, almost literal translation from Latin. I am Italian and I have studied Latin 5 years in high school.

That would actually be pretty interesting both for the crew themselves to see their former enemy becoming the bulk of the Federation and for the audience given how we've seen the Klingon Empire change over the various shows and movies.

exactly what I wrote above.

Italian as well and with similar studies. ;)

yes, it could. Especially as Klingons are seen as enemies by the 23th century discovery crew (but I suspect that if they go that way they won’t have as much as a problem with it as some might imagine).

Save for the fact that the Klingons came to their aid just moments ago for the Discovery crew.
