The UCIP Timeline has been built over a decade of role playing (specifically about 14 years). UCIP's stardate format is 24YYMM.DD (Y = year, M = month, and D = day).

Early UCIP History[]
- 239202.xx - The first totally secret subspace communique between a Romulan CO and Federation CO occurs, discussing a possible problem they both see in their governments.
- 239203.xx - On the planet Orisus Three, a gathering of several dozen Starfleet, Romulan, Cardassian, and Klingon commanding officers occurs in utter secrecy. There, they all agree that the highest levels of their government seem to be showing signs of extraordinary and odd behavior, and they take up a stance against their governments by forming a fleet of their own. With no hope of victory, they engage to find the source of this problem.
- 239208.21 - Sending spies into the higher levels of the government, the Klingon and Starfleet commanding officers find out that a symbiotic race that controls the human mind and breathes through a small gill protruding from the back of the neck, seen once before by the Federation more than twenty-five years previously, had taken over the highest levels of their government.
- 239211.20 - As the time of all-out war between the "patriots" in the government and the "traitors" in the new fleet of ships, the spies manage to find the mother creatures within the key officials in their governments, killing the other symbiotes and vanquishing them from all the governments. After this is completed, Rear Admiral Mark Miller, the last remaining Senior Staff member, is appointed to Commander in Chief and promoted to Fleet Admiral.
- 239212.03 - As the new year approaches, the new leaders of the Federation, Romulan, Klingon and Cardassian governments meet to discuss the unification of their peoples into one cohesive unit, a massive alliance the likes of which no one had ever seen. The proposal's initial name was the United Galactic Alliance of Planets, and the plans were set into motion to start the UGAP within one year.
- 239305.21 - As expected, the UGAP project met with serious opposition, and in the first open revolt against UGAP, a bombing occurred in the center of the Starfleet Academy Building in San Fransisco, killing nearly eight hundred cadets and teachers in a never-before-seen protest of the new alliance.
- 239405.23 - In the single, most devastating terrorist blow known to Federation history, the USS Agamemnon and USS Hiroshima are destroyed as they enter a mined asteroid field with an automatic distress signal rigged in it by the terrorists. The terrorist group that released its claim of responsibility over subspace wanted to be known as the League for Freedom.
- 239408.05 - Purely by accident, an official from the Federation stumbles upon the knowledge that the Cardassians have, in fact consolidated again with Dominion shapeshifters, and that they have replaced key officials in the UGAP project. When that knowledge leaks across subspace, the Cardassians panic and their Dominion spies in the networks of the 4 governments suddenly shift, attempting to kill as many of the people around them as they can before dying. Several key leaders in all governments are killed. After careful investigation of the areas where the Cardassians were staying, a direct link was found from them to the League for Freedom, proving they were responsible for its creation and actions.
- 239408.12 - Stepping up the security in the chambers where the UGAP project was to be discussed, the Cardassians were forcibly expelled from all Romulan, Federation, and Klingon worlds, and they returned to Cardassia to cope with the Dominion's disappointment. The remaining and replacement leaders sent from the three remaining governments step up plans on the UGAP project, hoping to finish it before the New Year, and the slogan of the UGAP project is adopted at that moment: "Never again will we be destroyed from within."
- 239412.06 - Fleet Admiral Mark Miller, CinC of StarFleet, broadcasts the historic subspace message regarding the birth of the newly-renamed United Confederation of Interstellar Planets: "Greetings. As you all know, the UGAP project has been underway for quite a while now. The final stages are complete, and now the four governments: StarFleet, Romulan, Cardassian, and Klingon, have all allied ourselves into one cohesive union, which is, from this point on, to be known as the United Confederation of Interstellar Planets. The UCIP is a dream, a dream that many, many people have died to complete, but now, and forever, may this symbol of peace between our peoples stand solid, help us destroy foes from without, and from within, and enrich and enlighten each other's races with knowledge." Admiral Miller subsequently brings together the UCIP InterPlanetary Council, the civilian body of individuals overseeing the non-military affairs of those planets within UCIP, and the Council votes Vice Admiral Daniel Brown into Commander in Chief of the UCIP Fleet Command, now containing the Klingon Defense Fleet, the Romulan Fleet, the StarFleet, and the Cardassian Fleet.

We are people just like yourself, Starfleet officers, loyal to the Federation. We are tired of the Federation leaving their far-flung worlds alone and defenseless. And the destruction of the New Atlantan colonies is the final straw." The shadowy figure stepped forward, still shrouded in darkness. "Unlike Starfleet Command, we are not going to allow this Romulan aggression to go unpunished. We will strike at them until they recognise the sovereignty of our territories, and curb their aggressive tendencies. We will not surrender.
