[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] Incidently, there's no reason to necessarily think that a Romulan Warbird is anything but large. Prior to the latter half of DS9 they had never been seen in combat. The Romulans are usually engaged in conspiracies and espionage and the pursuit of superweapons. If they really had a strong "traditional" fleet, would they need to pursue all these other careful, cautious plans? Someone, probably Lee, has suggested here that the Romulan Warbird might be primarily a psychological weapon, with the entire Empire being a lot more like North Korea than, say, Russia or China (to borrow the original series' Cold War allegories). [Perhaps one reason why the Romulans have never sought more engagement with the outside world is that the Neutral Zone actually protects their fragile hold on whatever populations they've conquered, or even their own people?] [/QB][/QUOTE]
