A long time ago The Cardassian Union was formed under a treaty that established a power-sharing agreement between the Cardassian Central Command and the Obsidian Order. Friction always existed between the two organizations as the Central Command worked to expand the reaches of the Union and the Obsidian Order worked to suppress it.
The civilian Detapa Council was established to serve as the chief governing body between the two branches, however, in practice, the Council was virtually powerless.
Following the fall of the Obsidian Order, shortly before stardate 49011, the Council, along with the Cardassian dissident movement, overthrew the Central Command, and established control over the government.
Gul Dukat served as chief military advisor to the Council following the revolution. The Klingon Empire believed the coup to have been engineered by the Dominion, and used it as a reason to invade the Union in the Klingon-Cardassian War.
The Klingon-Cardassian War was a two-year conflict between the Klingon Empire and the Cardassian Union , that devastated the Cardassian state and paved the way for its absorption into the Dominion. The manipulation of the Klingons into launching their unprovoked attack on the Cardassians and its lasting consequences would prove to be one of the greatest coups of Changeling infiltration in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants.
The coup was in fact successful due to the collapse of the Obsidian Order after the Battle of the Omarion Nebula. This war devastated Cardassian infrastructure, with a great loss of life and territory.
In 2373, the Dominion suddenly invaded the Alpha Quadrant with dozens of ships coming through the Bajoran wormhole, there was when Gul Dukat secretly negotiated an alliance with The Dominion and made Cardassia an official member of The Dominion, there was only a few weeks prior the Dominion's entry of the Alpha Quadrant.
The Detapa Council became completely powerless with Cardassia formally annexed and Dukat as the designated leader of the Cardassians
With the Cardassian Union borders returned to their pre-war state, Dukat had successfully raised the Union to be a first-rate power in the Alpha Quadrant. However, Dukat's personal ambitions, combined with the Founders' desire to bring order to the galaxy, meant that an interstellar war was inevitable.
The escalation of hostilities was growing over the months, these events led to start a full-scale war against all major forces in the Alpha Quadrant, that war was known as the Dominion War..
The faith of Gul Dukat, the Dominion and Cardassia is well known across the galaxy, while initially the alliance with the Dominion seemed to be beneficial to Cardassia, in the long run it resulted in an exponential loss of life. Near the end of the Dominion War, Cardassia Prime was struck by Jem'Hadar raids and orbital bombardment from the Dominion and Breen forces in orbit of the planet, which attempted to wipe out the Cardassian species entirely for their betrayal.
By the end of the Dominion War, Cardassia Prime was devastated by orbital bombardment and Jem'Hadar raids by the Dominion, who wished to wipe out the Cardassian species for their betrayal. Over eight hundred million men, women and children were slaughtered in the planet-wide genocide.
The Reborn Of An Empire:
Following the Dominion War, the Cardassian Union was occupied by the Federation, as well as the Klingon and Romulan Empires.
Time has passed and wounds have healed, after the destruction of our world by Dominion and the humiliation of the occupation of our homeworld by Federation who positioned Legat Takud to control of the Government.
Legat Takud and some within the reconstructed Detapa Council in collaboration with part of the occupation forces leaders, had conspired to create a reign of terror in the galaxy.
They hoped to unleash their destructive power against civilizations by assassination and the destruction. But the aims of would-be tyrants were valiantly opposed by those without elitist.
