Federation and Starfleet personnel have worked with the Archadian government to make advancements within their science, security and diplomatic areas. Technology is not simply given to them but, as with all other races, they are helped along with their own discoveries and have the use of some Starfleet equipment. | Federation and Starfleet personnel have worked with the Archadian government to make advancements within their science, security and diplomatic areas.

| + | One of the strongest issues keeping the Archadians from becoming a Federation aligned planet is their treatment of males of their race. While they are not quite seen as lower beings their treatment at the hands of the females is less than fair. The Federation has exacting requirements for prospective member worlds that wish to join. Caste-based discrimination is forbidden and the treatment of male Archadians can be seen as just that. To become a member of the Federation the Archadian government would have to pass laws giving males the same rights as females of the species. Diplomatic officers have met with the Archadian government on several occasions attempting to rectify this but the history of males and females has been this way for so long that the talks are slow going and there are are many who oppose such a change. | ||
