History:

The government of the worlds controlled by the reptoid race known as the Gorn is called the Alliance The Gorn, a strong, hardy race of fierce warriors, developed a culture that stresses strength, courage, and the natural dominance of the fittest

No state of war exists between the United Federation of Planets and the Alliance, thanks to negotiations begun after the initial contact. Peace negotiations have progressed on Clanhaven, a Federation world close to the frontier. The Frontier Accord limits the buildup of military shipping in the disputed space, and a joint commission has been working slowly at building up an agreeable boundary, though no final agreements have been reached. Negotiations progress slowly because the Gorn are split between those who would negotiate peacefully with the Federation and the activist faction who believe in direct confrontation. Both factions agree on the premise that the Federation must not hinder Gorn expansion and fulfillment of their "Manifest Destiny," but they differ on the methods to be used
