Physical Description: Gorn are large green and scaley. They have the bite radius of an ancient Earth animal called a velociraptor, and evolved from creatures quite similar to them. They have small tails that are in the process of devolving, and stand upright on two legs, though are slightly hunched over when they walk.
Temperment:
The Gorn are a reptilian race from planets with greater gravity than Terra and with a harsher climate, which perhaps accounts for their greater endurance. Though battle is not the overwhelming preoccupation that it is for Klingons and Romulans, the Gorn prize physical strength and endurance over intellect. Gorn individuals and Gorn society as a whole are not given to subtlety, and thus they do not attempt to be charismatic, preferring to persuade by physical domination. They consider psionics a fidgety and unworthy dicipline, and do not persue such studies. Even Gorn engineering is of the 'push hard till it moves' variety.

Government
Gorn Hegemony The government of the worlds controlled by the reptiloid race known as the Gorn is called the Alliance. The Gorn Alliance is governed by two Autarchs, one who represents the Gorn homeworld and the other who represents the Gorn colony worlds.
No state of war exists between the Federation and the Hegemony, thanks to negotiations begun after initial contact. Peace negotiations progressed on Clanhaven, a UFP world close to the FEderation/Gorn Border. The Frontier Accord limits the build up of military shipping in the disputed space.
Negotiations usually progress slowly because the Gorn are split between those who would negotiate peacefully with the UFP and the 'actionist' faction who believe in direct confrontation. Both factions agree on the premise that the Federation must not hinder Gorn expansion and fufillment of their Manifest Destiny, but they differ on the methods to be used.
