The Amleth system was an inhabited planetary system in the Alpha Quadrant. This system was located in a emission nebula, which rendered cloaking devices useless.

One of its planets, Amleth Prime, was the site of a Cardassian military base. The planet Rakal and the Loval system were located in the same sector as this system. (DS9: "Return to Grace")

Background information[]

This system was only mentioned in dialogue.

This system's quadrant of origin is inferred based on the position of the Cardassian Union as seen in the star chart appearing in the Star Trek: Picard episode "Maps and Legends".

"AM-leth" was the pronunciation for this system's name from the script pronunciation guide. [1]

According to Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 46) and Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Stellar Cartography", p. 18-19; "Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), the Amleth system was a binary system with an M-class star and a G-class star. According to a map of the Cardassian Union – prepared by an anonymous astrography clerk, from the Cardassian Central Archives, in 2364 – Amleth was identified as a Cardassian system.
