The Dorala system was a star system in the Beta Quadrant.
In 2259, the location of this system was labeled on a stellar cartography chart seen on the USS Enterprise's ready room viewscreen. The system's symbol was a red Klingon Empire logo, indicating its affiliation with the empire. (SNW: "Children of the Comet")
During the Dominion War of the 2370s, the Federation Alliance-held this system. In 2374, General Martok reported to Captain Benjamin Sisko that three Klingon attack cruisers were bolstering up the defense perimeter of the Dorala system. Sisko was pleased by the news, stating that he just hoped they could hold out until Starfleet could send reinforcements. He was assured that the Klingons would hold out until their arrival. (DS9: "The Reckoning")
This system was only mentioned in dialogue.
According to Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 64) and Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), the Dorala system's primary was a F-class star.
The Star Trek Encyclopedia, 4th ed., vol. 1, p. 216 located this system, which the authors called a region, in the Alpha Quadrant.
