The Navot was a faction on Bajor whose territory bordered that of the rival Paqu. Both factions inhabited land that was some of the harshest on the planet. Since the treaty of 2279, the natural border was the Glyrhond River.
However, during the Cardassian Occupation, the river was used for mining operations and diverted twenty kilometers west into what had been Navot land, leading to a territorial dispute with the Paqu.
In 2369, Woban was the leader of the Navot, and according to Benjamin Sisko, the dispute could lead to civil war. A meeting between Woban and Paqu Tetrarch Varis Sul was held aboard Deep Space 9, mediated by Commander Sisko. During the mediation, a compromise was reached between the Paqu and Navot, whereby the land gained by the Paqu was returned to the Navot and the right to free trade access to both sides of the river was established. (DS9: "The Storyteller")
It was not stated whether the Paqu and Navot were countrys, as they were simply referred to as "factions."
