The Regent of the Evora, a newly warp-capable people welcomed as a Federation protectorate at a reception aboard the Enterprise-E at the start of Star Trek: Insurrection.
Regent Cuzar leads the delegation of the Evora, a small-statured species of some three hundred thousand people who achieved warp drive only a year before the events of Star Trek: Insurrection.
With the Federation stretched thin after the Dominion War and eager for friends, the Evora are being admitted as a protectorate, and the Enterprise-E is sent to host a formal reception. Picard, grumbling that his ship has become a diplomatic courier, greets Cuzar in dress uniform and submits to having a ceremonial beaded headdress placed on his head.
The party is cut short when news arrives that Data has apparently run amok in the Briar Patch, and Picard leaves to deal with it.
