Biology The Breen are bipedal humanoids that evolved on a non M-class world. The average temperature of the Breen homeworld is 225K, which has required the Breen to develop a unique physiology to survive. They do not have blood or a liquid circulatory system, but rather a series of hollow tubules that perform gas exchange with the environment. The Breen must wear protective suits when in contact with other races since they cannot tolerate warm temperatures. The average Breen is 1.8 meters in height and an average mass of 80 kilograms with females slightly smaller than their male counterparts. Breen mature quickly, but have a relatively short lifespan of 40-50 years. The Breen are unable to be sensed by telepaths due to the unique structure of their brain. Society Breen society is highly fragmented. The central government controls most of Breen space except for the outer regions, which are controlled by numerous factions that operate autonomously from the government. Breen are somewhat xenophobic since they have little experience dealing with other species. Breen culture is generally patriarchal and reproduction has become increasingly artificial with genetic manipulation common. Most Breen enjoyed little freedom and are employed in labor intensive industries. Supplementary labor is provided by slaves from a number of conquered species and captured prisoners. Encounters with other species have left the Breen with a reputation of brutality and distrust. Brief History The Breen Confederacy was formed after a devastating civil war left the Breen vulnerable to invasion by rival powers. The Confederacy united most of the warring factions and managed to expand Breen territory through a number of minor conflicts. The Breen remained politically isolated with acts of token aggression against neighboring species for many years until their participation in the Dominion War. Once the war ended, the Breen-Dominion alliance was broken and less than half of the Breen fleet was able to return to Breen territory. Renegade factions have complicated the situation by attacking weakened Cardassian interests and have strained relations with the other powers in the Alpha Quadrant, which the Confederacy believes will led to a second unwanted war.
