Appearance & Pysiology:
They have two segmented dermal ridges which run
vertically, one on each side of the forehead.
Dr.Phlox calls them "the anterior ridges".
(This distinction implies the possibility of other ridges,
hidden beneath the hair.)
Homeplanet:
Location: Archer notes that "we came 78 light
years". We don't know if he's measuring from Earth,
from the Enterprise's
previous planetfall, its total odometer reading, etc., but "from Earth"
would
seem to be correct from
the context.
Population: The planet's population is scanned
at 500 million. There are dozens of cities on each
continent.
Technology Level: Pre-industrial; there are
no electromagnetic transmissions are detected from their
world.
Culture:
All Akaali carry identity papers.
History:
2151: One Akaali city suffered from
sickness due to secret Malurian mining operations. Contaminants
from their drilling machinery
were leaking into the water supply. Captain Archer helped to foil
the
operation and removed the
mining equipment. The Vulcans agreed to later check on the Akaali
periodically to see if the
Malurians had returned.
