Kira Nerys was an officer in the Bajoran Militia following the Occupation of Bajor. During the occupation she fought in the Bajoran Resistance. She served as Bajoran liaison officer to Starfleet on the Federation-administered station, Deep Space 9. In 2375, she was given command of the station following the disappearance of her predecessor. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)
Kira was placed in temporary command of Deep Space 9 after Captain Benjamin Sisko took leave following the First Battle of Chin'toka. (DS9: "Tears of the Prophets", "Image in the Sand", "Shadows and Symbols")
Pocket Books continuity[]
Following Bajor's entry into the Federation the Bajoran Militia was absorbed into Starfleet and Kira was given the rank of captain. (DS9 novel: Unity)
Star Trek Online[]
At some point after 2375, Kira joined the Bajoran religion's priesthood, and by 2409 she had been named Kai of Bajor. ("Boldly They Rode")
Bait and Switch[]
A couple years prior to 2410, the True Way attempted to assassinate Kai Kira.
In 2410 Starfleet requested that Kai Kira grant Kanril Eleya access to the Orb of Possibilities in hopes of stopping a spate of Terran Empire incursions into the prime universe. Kira initially rejected the request because they didn't have a plan for what to do with it once they got it. Instead she brought the Orb of Wisdom to Kanril, and the Prophets informed Kanril in an Orb experience that the Orb of Possibilities had been swapped with its mirror universe counterpart. Kira then gave them the Orb. (The Wrong Reflection)
The War of the Masters[]
Following the Battle of Goralis, Kai Kira reportedly gave a speech implying that the Federation's official story of a training exercise gone disastrously wrong was false (as indeed it was). ("The Only Way to Go")
