    Is that the backstory? Then why did humans end up being the real power in the Federation?

    I love what I've seen of Trek so far, but I do wish humans weren't The Biggest Deal

      From what I remember, though its been a few years since I watched Enterprise, is that humans turned out to be a unifying element to the quadrant once we got our shit together and did FALGSC. Before humans arrived on the interstellar scene, the Vulcans and Andorians were constantly at each other's throats, sometimes going to war and sometimes in a cold war. I don't quite remember what the Tellerites were doing but humans led the effort on creating the Federation with those other 3 species in the 2150s or 2160s or whatever it was.

          Oh yeah! I forgot about that. Sucks that they never made it that far, it's such an important piece of the lore. Plus, Shran was supposedly going to join the crew in the later seasons. We were robbed :(
