Bolians are a humanoid Federation species native to | Bolians are a humanoid Federation species native to Bolarus IX. When Bolians first visited Earth - following first contact with Humans - they were most interested in the plumbing systems located there (which they found disappointing). Despite this first impression they have since developed a reputation as highly social individuals and have become integral members of the United Federation of Planets. | ||

Bolarus IX is an M-Class planet which is ninth in their solar system. Bolarus IX features a large number of small landmasses, islands, archipelagos, and atolls surrounded by major oceans, isolating most of the major cities from one another. Only three islands are really large enough to be called continents, and each of these is still smaller than any single continent on earth. The world is largely a water world, and the disparate nature of the most early population centers caused much of the independent cultural development that remains apparent among the various Bolian races to this day. There are no large anchoring continental masses, and as a result the legendary surface storms of Bolarus IX are able to move across the planet's surface unchecked by geographic barriers. | Bolarus IX is an M-Class planet which is ninth in their solar system.

Bolians are completely bald. However there appears to be at least one recessive gene, possibly a evolutionary throwback still circulating in the population, which allows the rare occurrence of hair growth, usually green-tinted blonde hair. | Bolians are completely bald.

One of the most important trade routes in the United Federation of Planets. Bolian freighters can be found throughout the sector. The two main routes are Earth to Bolarus IX and Bolarus IX to Tellar. As a result the probability of communicable disease passing through the Bolarus system is high. | One of the most important trade routes in the United Federation of Planets.
