"Most of the races can be dangerous. Though at the moment neither the Romulans or the Klingon Empire are a part of the Federation, and interaction with either species is dangerous in more than one way. Personal safety, and potentially causing a war."

"There is peace now, but it's tenuous. Several attempts have been made to ignite a new war, as recently as only a few years ago."
