Orias system

The Orias system was a planetary system in Cardassian space with one uninhabited M-class planet.

In 2371, Starfleet Intelligence believed that the Cardassians were secretly building a fleet in the Orias system, without the knowledge of the Central Command. The Maquis feared that this build-up was a prelude to a new offensive in the Demilitarized Zone, and so Thomas Riker stole the USS Defiant (2370) to investigate. He was prevented from entering the system by several warships fielded by the Obsidian Order, though he did provide the Central Command with scans of the system in exchange for clemency. 

It eventually emerged that the Obsidian Order was building the fleet in preparation for a joint operation with the Tal Shiar to destroy the Founders in the Gamma Quadrant.
