The Vidiian Sodality describes the Vidiian political and government arrangements in their territory in the Delta Quadrant. (VOY: "Phage") The planet Vidiia is the capital of the Sodality. (Star Trek: The Expedition: "Sodality")
The phage ravaged the Vidiians for over two thousand years, causing a shift in the Sodality towards a more militaristic approach in fighting extinction. (VOY: "Phage") By 2375, the Think Tank cured the phage, and the Sodality shifted back towards a more peaceful existence. (VOY: "Think Tank"; Star Trek: The Expedition)
Unfortunately, the Sodality's victims sought vengeance for the years of attack. The Sodality fell under attack, with many Vidiians attempting to flee to the Alpha Quadrant through a newly-established gateway. In an attempt to stem the flow, the Federation agreed to assist the Sodality in defending itself, even building the Outpost Delta space station in orbit of Vidiia. (Star Trek: The Expedition: "Departure", et al)
