It was not unheard of for secondary characters to play as much of a role in an episode as the regular cast, if not more.

A StarTrek.com article about <i>Star Trek</i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'</span>s greatest villains described Gul Dukat as "possibly the most complex and fully-developed bad guy in <i>Star Trek</i> history". </p><p>Elim Garak, portrayed by <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Robinson_(actor)" title="Andrew Robinson (actor)">Andrew Robinson</a>, is the only Cardassian who remains on the space station when the Federation and the Bajorans take over.

The war between the Dominion and the Federation spans the last two seasons of the show, after tensions between the two gradually increase from the beginning of the third season. Throughout the series, loyalties and alliances change repeatedly: pacts with the Cardassians are made, broken, and remade; a short war with the Klingons flares up and is settled; Bajor grows into political stability; and formerly neutral powers are drawn into conflict. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Bajor">Bajor</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Star_Trek:_Deep_Space_Nine&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Bajor"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Bajor" class="mw-redirect" title="Bajor">Bajor</a></div> <p>In the first episode, Starfleet Commander Benjamin Sisko arrives at <i>Deep Space Nine</i>, a space station formerly operated by the Cardassians during their oppressive occupation of the planet Bajor. He is assigned to run the station jointly with the newly liberated Bajorans as they recover from the Cardassian occupation, to help pave the way for Bajor's entry into the Federation. Sisko and Jadzia Dax stumble upon a <a href="/wiki/Wormhole" title="Wormhole">wormhole</a> leading to the distant Gamma Quadrant, and discover that it is inhabited by beings who are not bound by normal space and time. To the strongly religious people of Bajor, the wormhole aliens are their gods (the <a href="/wiki/Bajoran_Prophets" class="mw-redirect" title="Bajoran Prophets">Prophets</a>) and the wormhole itself is the long-prophesied Celestial Temple. Sisko is hailed as the Emissary of the Prophets, through whom the Prophets act. </p><p>Bajor's politics and religion, and Sisko's status within it, provide the basis for long-lasting story arcs. Early seasons show Bajor reckoning with the aftermath of occupation and establishing itself as a democracy. Meanwhile, Sisko initially considers his role as a religious icon with discomfort and skepticism, striving to keep his role as commander of the station distinct from any religious obligations that the Bajorans try to place on him. Later, he becomes more accepting of his role and, by the end of the series, he openly embraces it. He is often called upon to choose between his role as Emissary and his duties to Starfleet, as when he persuades the Bajorans to withdraw their application for Federation membership after receiving a vision from the Prophets. The political and religious implications of Sisko's status for Bajor and its spiritual leaders (most notably, <a href="/wiki/Winn_Adami" class="mw-redirect" title="Winn Adami">Winn Adami</a>) provide a central arc that lasts until the end of the series. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_Maquis">The Maquis</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Star_Trek:_Deep_Space_Nine&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: The Maquis"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Maquis_(Star_Trek)" title="Maquis (Star Trek)">Maquis (Star Trek)</a></div> <p>The station crew early on contends with a resistance group known as the <a href="/wiki/Maquis_(Star_Trek)" title="Maquis (Star Trek)">Maquis</a>.
