The situation

Due to some rift in the universe--all personell from Star Wars and Star Trek have suddenly switched places. There universes have remained seperated and tommarrow they will rerturn to their correct universe.

The Rebels have swapped with the Federation, the Wookies with the Klingons, The Imperials with the Romulons, Sith with the Dominon. The only beings not swapped were the Borg.

How will the universes be different once they swap back?

All the Wars races heads will explode at the horrible form-over-function "technology" of the Trek.

One day is not enough time to cause any lasting changes, just a lot of confusion.

Much of the Star Wars universe won't even notice, since the combined populations of the Federation, Klingon Empire, and Romulan Empire would represent only a tiny fraction of the population of the Star Wars galaxy.

The Sith (both of them) would be bored has hell for a day, since they would be virtually alone in the Gamma Quadrant.

The Romulans have a week to figure out what's going on with the Empire. They have a lot of ships, but they're spread so thin they can't do a thing with them. They don't know how to operate the damn things, and the droids won't take orders from a bunch of alien strangers. The Empire is in crisis.

The Federation has a week to figure out what's going on with the Rebellion. Same problems as the Romulans have. The Rebellion is unable to exploit the sudden Imperial weakness.

The Klingons are mostely concentrated on Kashyyk (sp?), but they don't know how to operate any of the Wookie starships, so they accomplish nothing.

Imperial troops and politicians end up in control of the Romulan Empire, where they're overconcentrated. Naturally, they don't understand the local technology, but fortunately it's a hell of a lot easier to operate without instructions than their own equipment. Nonetheless, they probably won't be in firm control within a week.

Wookies are totally pissed off at being dumped on the barren rock the Klingons call a homeworld. Unfortunately, there's little they can do about it.

The Rebels find themselves in control of the Federation. Within a week, locals using Universal Translators manage to give them an idea what's going on in the Federation. Unfortunately, it will take more than a week to settle the turmoil caused by the sudden disappearance of the Federation government and the appearance of a bunch of strangers in their place.

Dominion Founders immediately assume innocuous forms and busy themselves figuring out where the hell they are. Their assorted subject races cause light to moderate havoc in the disorganized Empire (since it's currently run by Romulans who haven't a clue what's going on).

A week still isn't sufficient. Give them a year and maybe they'll get their assorted acts together.

Two Sith can't run the Dominion by themselves no matter how long you give them.

a week is long enough for the Imperials to start a war the the Feds would have to deal with.

on a side not The Hutts would swap with the Ferengi

Then they promptly succumb to internal strife, just as they did historically.

How can they start a war in a week? They won't be able to operate the Romulan fleet competently in that time. Heck, they probably won't even have consistent control of communications that soon.

You're forcing a completely unfamiliar technology base on these people; they won't be starting wars with anybody very soon.

The most disastrous potential result is that local, disaffected races may take advantage of the turmoil, so that the original owners return to their homes to find major civil wars going on.

Q'onos is a swampy world, I thought.

I flexible to suggestion.

Weel go with a year since it allows something to happen

All SW characters will be horribly frustratred after they found out how slow ST FTL drive is, and eventually commit mass-suicide.

That or they reorder things to a more militaristic phase, and less focus on weirdo fringe science.

The Empire will start restructuring the Romulan economy and technology base. They will bombard any local world that gives them trouble, and they might start picking on a weak neighbor using the Romulan fleet.

The Romulans will attempt to consolidate the various manufacturing companies of the Empire into a state monopoly. Assorted factions will realize they have no clue what they're doing, leading to another civil war. They may never get that far, though, as the Dominion might quickly do them in and take over.

The Rebels will start restructuring the Federation economy and technology base. Lacking the option of WMDs for dealing with dissenters, their progress will be much slower. Upon discovering that the Imperials have taken over the neighboring Romulan Empire, they'll fortify the border.

The Federation will be at a loss, since they won't be in the powerful political position they're used to holding. However, the trouble the Romulans are likely to start in the Imperial government will give them time to regroup and possibly aid one of the warring factions that has compatible values.

The Klingons will eventually figure out how to get off Kashyyk and probably try to carve out a small Empire of their own, possibly hiring themselves out as mercenaries to start. Of course, if they don't learn that SW soldiers typically shoot their enemies instead of engaging them in close combat, they won't get far.

The Wookies will do what they can to restructure the Klingon economy and technology base. Upon discovering the Rebels in control of the Federation, they'll probably ally with them against the Empire's forces in Romulan territory.

Two Sith would have their hands full trying to handle the assorted Dominion races without the massive military/security apparatus of the Founders and Jem'Hadar.

The Dominion (presumably including the Founders, Jem'Hadar, and Vorta) would find themselves somewhere in Imperial territory, with Romulans incompetently running the government. Given their superior intelligence-gathering options (a major advantage of the shapeshifters), they could probably supplant the Romulan governors and rule the Empire themselves. They'd run into the same problems as the Romulans when they started trying to convert the Empire to their preferred socio-economic model, though.

Good but what would the various groups think of their new worlds once they swap back?

Raoul Duke, Jr. · Post by **Raoul Duke, Jr.** » 2003-04-10 07:06pm

Who the hell would swap with the Q? Or the Borg? I know they're probably verboten in this thread, but just out of curiosity, I'd like to hear speculations.

He said no borg..

as for Q:

Q, who sudenly has become responsable, and the Q continum (who since their civil war have decided to give a little more help to us lower life forms) will snap their collective fingers and reverse everything within 10 secounds. Q will proboly think it ammusing to swich their uniforms though....
