Thanks for the support. I did try and find the most logical way to have a Empire rise in place of Federation in the Trek universe, and hopefully you all think I succeeded. The worlds of my Terran Empire aren't to far removed from the realms of possiblity if one changes how history panned out at a few key points.Considering how often dangerous aliens are encountered in the general neighbourhood of Sol system in Enterprise and TOS, convincing Humankind that becoming aggressive, "get them before they get us", is perferable to being conquered by any number of threats to Humanity.
Course they really wouldn't be the Federation then. IMHO, the Trek Federation's mindset isn't supportive of the changes to act as you suggest Dark Primus. Not in any way shape or form. Pretty much the entire structure would have to be reworked. Having a capable military means that at least the military portion of your population THINK they are military rather than try to argue the contrary beacuse they have been indoctrinated by top down propaganda from birth.
