History:

Very little is known about the past history of the Dominion. Even its exact age is uncertain. Once of the Founders has said that her people began "many years ago" to impose order on their chaotic surroundings with the Gamma Quadrant. More recent information suggests the Changelings, after centuries of persecution with the Gamma Quadrant, retreated to a planet within the Omarion Nebula. About 2,000 years ago, the Changelings, who seem to view chaos as a personal threat, begin to reach out into the Quadrant and build the Dominion as a way to create order out of disorder. In the process, they become known as the Founders

The Founders genetically engineer a breed of totally loyal soldier, the Jem'Hadar, in order to create an army to serve them without question. The Jem'Hadar are dependent on a drug called Ketrecel white (or just 'white') and look upon the Founders as gods.

However, while the Jem'Hadar think themselves inferior to the Founders, they believe themselves superior to every other race

Political Structure:

The Dominion is a mighty planetary alliance and trading consortium in the Gamma Quadrant governed by a species called the Founders

The Dominion is ruled by shape shifting 'Changelings' known as the Founders, managed and administered by the Vorta, a telekinetic humanoid race, and defended by genetically-engineered soldiers, the Jem'Hadar

They seem somewhat arrogant, they have an instinctive respect for Changelings they see them as "gods", tolerate the leadership of the Vorta, and think that all other races are inferior to themselves. . To avoid unwanted incidents with other Dominion Citizens, the Jem'Hadar are ordered to never attack a member of the Dominion, unless specifically ordered to
