The Remans were one of the only good parts of Nemesis. It really highlighted the hubris and ignorance of the Romulan Star Empire that they were totally unaware of the Reman uprising aided by a select few ambitious Romulans.

Me before Picard: There guys are cool, I hope we see more of them. *the writers of Picard precede to create a story were the loss of Remus and death of countless Remans during the supernova that destroyed Romulus is never once brought up* Me after Picard: Oh...

Shinzon love him or hate him, was the only person in The Dominion War to have a clean sweep, by achieving victory in each battle he was involved him. Not even Benjamin Sisko could claim such a feat.

I just want a Star Trek movie or TV show to do a long involved storyline with the Romulans. They keep popping up here and there in various series, but it always seems to be the Klingons who take center stage as the other alien race.

"They evolved this way... or maybe they mutated." I mean. Yes?

As far as Trek cannon is concerned, I think they are under developed, but definitely full of potential for future stories. I think an off shoot theory is interesting, but like I said, Trek (and CBS) would have to be interested in exploring the Trek franchise from Nemesis forward and I am hoping this Picard show does so...but I have little hope.

I love this race and the new future of reconciliation on New Romulus in Star Trek Online.

I'll admit this is strickly my own head canon but I think remans (along with other servitor races) formed the bulk romulan ground forces and ship board security during the Romulan War (of 2150s) explaining why UFP has no (reliable) depiction of romulans before the mid or late 2260s.

You should read the book vulcan hart . it explains in detail how the remis where created and how the sundereded vulcans where exsiled to the mines in the begening .

I always thought that the Remens were natives that the Romulans enslaved and interbred with

*Ah, what image do I use to show "Genetic Divergence Caused by Mutation"?* 5:40 *Right. Tardigrades it is.*

Remans for sure in Picard show. The collapse of the Star Empire surely see the Remans make another attempt at freedom.

The Remans are my favorite race. Thanks for doing them Certifiably Ingame!!! Great job as all ways. I actually have looked in some personal research as to whether they would be another offshoot or another distinct race that shares traits just because of them being one of the seeded races. It is pretty neat stuff! Great job once again, you channel is my favorite on KZfaq.

i found the idea that the Remans had a complex alphabet and writing to be VERY strange. Considering their most common and familiar surroundings would be a dimly lit mine, living underground does not lend it self to the necessity of writing complex, intricate markings that could not be read even if your eyes were able to see into the ultraviolet wavelength. What form of writing tools would they have easy access to, aside from chisels? What would they write on, aside from either carving in rock, pulverizing a softer rock against a harder one to make marks, such as a talc or calcium carbonate 'chalk', or pressing symbols into clay? What would make more sense would be larger, simple carved symbols that could be discerned by touch, like arrows and polygons. They might well have developed their own form of Braille, with raised dots in specific, simple patterns, and perhaps a Cuneiform of some sort. And a final thought, as an enslaved race, certain members would be taught to read Romulan, so that written directions would be understood. They would NOT be encouraged to develop their own distinctive script which the Romulans in turn would need to decipher.

I love the Riemann hopefully they'll find a planet of your own I'm sure they have and be good allies to the federation

I really enjoyed the novels that were written and explored the origins of the Remans, I'd love to see more about them and the other Vulcan splinter species.

The first time I see a Reman Woman at 3:04!

I love their noodles! They're good, they're versatile and they're affordable! They fit my budget when times get tough, financially. Sometimes, that's almost all I would eat... for months! LOL!!! 😄 Three cheers for "Reman Noodles"! - 🤗🍜❤😋🍵😍🍻✌

Those kinky vulcans really got around practicing hankypancky with other species

2:38 - frankly, I prefer to see Romii as a SEPARATE world from Remus, as some novels do. It allows some easier retcons as well, for some references.

Ever since I was a child I have been fascinated by the mysterious Remans that were mentioned only once in the classic episode “BALANCE OF POWER” & were finally introduced in NEMESIS & ENTERPRISE. I hope that they are given a bigger bite of the action in future

Wow , Reminds me of Fremen from the Dune universe

They are like Orks from Tolkiens world: mutated from Elves

i noticed you use a lot of Star Trek Online in your videos. In particular, this video, since I'm assuming the lack of info on the Remans. Yes, I know that pain. Remans are awesome, btw, I love them. I relatively recently discovered the awesomeness of the Romulan Faction in STO, and I run a Reman. Anyway, superb video. Looking forward to watching more...

I was really looking forward to the 5th season of enterprise because I'm sure there would have been alot of Reman soldiers shown & the Romulans hiding there true appearance. 😢

I think I would most likely win their friendship pretty quickly. I think it would be easy to do as long as one accepted them and treated them fairly. I want to see more of them. I'm glad you included them in your indexes. This was a great video.

In my head-canon, the Remans came about as a mutation of the Romulans, due to a virus lurking in the ecosystem of Romulus. Any child born to a Romulan that showed Reman traits was deemed so hideous and diabolical that it was abandoned to the wilderness and left to die. Some survived, however, and slunk away to the shadowy fringes of Romulus where they formed a Reman society. They were "rediscovered" and enslaved by the Romulans after many centuries...

This channel reminds me of Spacedock! Both are awesome.

Picard: "Onscreen." Worf: "They appear to be Remans, sir." Riker: "Reman? Like what I gave Counselor Troi last night?" Picard: (facepalm) Worf: (stares in angry klingon)

So looking forward to the Discovery review

The time has come for a Na'khul cultural index!

I’m all for the Reman and I’m glad they are a genetic off shoot of Distant Vulcans..

Ive always find this fascinating. And a lot of places get the Remans wrong. They are Vulcans evolved in a different environment.

What do Remans eat? Reman noodles.

I think the Remans are also the result of the Founder Effect. When a small sub-set of a population breaks off to form a new one rare traits can become fixed by random chance. In this case, telepathy.

I loved the depicted history of Remans in the sundering that was provided in the books that went into detail of the Vulcan Romulan sundering. I forgot the name of the books but I loved that the Vulcan that followed Suracks teachings and that they got infected with a symbiotic bacteria that interacted with the Vulcan DNA and that caused the "birth" of the Remans. Those books would have made really great movie/episodes. Cleared up a lot of back story information and was mesmerizing thrilling dramatic and over all entertaining.

Well done they are an interesting race and as for being off shots it gives them a more unpredictable nature.

Personally I totally agree with the "mutated romulans/vulcans" idea. I think the only difference I have is that I would bet that they're not products of evolution but specifically genetic manipulation.

*The Remans* remind me of *the Krill* on *"the Orville"* show.

I'd like to hear about the Kree, which would be a nice tie in with the Captain Marvel movie.

Excellent Index! Like your point of view! Okay. one article not discuss yet is the Star Charts expansion as per each era in Star Trek . The location of every reference star system is difficult to be found.( Due to core and fan interpretation). Some regions of space are not clear. Like, First Federation and the outer borders of Romulan & Klingon empires. Ferengi worlds and commerce expansion . Need to be reviewed.

The Remans are pretty cool still. Ah heck..... now I have to finish watching Picard to find out if they are in it....

I always thought that the Remans were a primitive race the Romulans found, when they discovered the Romulus system and genetically altered with their own DNA to become better slaves. The Remans being mutant Romulans is a good explanation though.

Nice Video-editing! 😶🤗

I prefer the theory that they are uplifted natives using Romulan DNA Since they would have been uplifted when the Romulans first rived in their new system the DNA used would have been Vulcan passing on the telepathic genes.

Kahleesh empire lets go. Plus if u done reference to general grievous U could make a reference to a star wars meme.

Their place in Romulan society and the Star Trek universe is "squishy" to say the least.

Romulans are also my Fav. Besides my Enterprise-E porn, the Remens were my favorite part of Nemesis.

"my favorite race the romulans" Me:"oh geeze we better keep a close eye this guy,he could crack at any minute ffs"

They were basically goblins in Nemesis. The extended material you mention here sounds way more interesting.

as great as the breakdown of the connections between Vulcans Romulans and Remans.... You would think this would also make a great explaination between the Klingons between the Discovery Kermit the Klingon Variety and the Klingons that came after in the TNG era (They canonized the change between the TOS to TNG Klingons with the DS9 and Enterprise episode)

Definitely like that Remans are an off shoot of Vulcans via Romulans. How long ago did the Romulans leave Vulcan and could that evolution happen so quickly?

So good.

Kahleesh! yes!!! Also great video

Thank YOU!

I think, almost every Reman was killed in the nova. Some may have survived the desaster but not enough for the species to prevail in the longer futur. So the one who survived may have risen up against the Romulans, but were quickly overwhelmed. After the nova the romulans would have strong need that things their societ is based on, were not changed so that the Star-Empire could prevail and handle the new situation

"or maybe they mutated" but.... thats what evolving is

They haven’t appeared in the later Star Trek at the moment.

You are a great narrator and the information is well researched. The only problem I have is I cannot get over what the new star trek has done to the time line. I have a hard time believing the Romulans would fall so hard if their home planet were destroyed. Also, seems kind of like weak plot device.

Shout out to F.W. Murnau and Max Schreck!

Section 31 should have exploited the animosity between the two.

They are just a mix between the Billy Corgan and the Hellraiser.

At the end of your video when you mentioned the Kree. That Captain Marvel isn't Kree, she's a human mutant gifted with Kree power bracelets. Kree are taller than humans with blue skin

I love the remans.

Kind of want to know where they are on Ni'Var, or if they have a homeworld of their own, maybe Discovery will cover them at some point.

Its kinda funny, the only thing stopping StarTrek from turning into another version of StarWars is the United Federation, if you get rid of the UnitedFederation you'd have something similar to StarWars

How about the Watraii from the Vulcan's Soul trilogy

I want a couple of Reman bodyguards.

Could the genetic similarities be part of the seeding of humanoid life throughout the galaxy? I would imagine that if they were the natives then the romulans would have began to evolve from their time on the two planets to share the traits the remans have like forehead ridges. Additionally it is possible early romulans bred with, most likely through force, like the Cardassians with the Bajorians.

I think that the Reman are what is left of the native species to the planet that became Romulus and that the Romulan settlers intermixed with them at first to some degree but then chose to isolate them from Roman society as a subjugated race. To me this explains the various biological differences between Vulcans and Romulans than simple genetic drift.

do the engineers from Prometheus next

Option B, please!!!

I wish Obisek was canon. He's my bro.

Does anybody know anything about the Vulcans and romulans incestrial race the Arretians there's not a lot knowing about

You would think the remains would live in the goldilocks band of the planet, or it’s equator

The Remans could also be a result of genetic modification, or are even further distantly related to Vulcanoids (perhaps being descendants of a basal form, much like with humans and apes). Or they are the result of hundreds of generations of interbreeding with the original inhabitants of Romulus (I suspect that's where the Remans were relocated from), and every Romulan has a distant Reman ancestor and visa versa (much like how many Americans have very faintly mixed European/African ancestry from the slave period). The last one is also the most icky one in my view, and so closely mirrors the real history of Earth for my liking.

i have a theory that once the romulans left vulcan and arrived at the remens home world, they interbred with the remens, giving the romulans the distinctive look over the vulcans

I do not think Remans are related to Romulans, Rigelian Vulcanoids or Vulcans. 2000 years is not enough time to evolve that drastically first of all, second, they were native to the system when Romulans arrived on the scene.

I have never understood why the Romulans and Remulans are named after the mythical founder of Rome and his brother. Now the Remans apparently worship Erebus, the Greek primordial god of Darkness? Do they also worship his sister Nyx the primordial goddess of Night? Are the Vulcans perhaps of Greco-Roman extraction? It makes my head hurt.

In the Romulan language, the planet is known as Ch'Havran as Romulus is actually Ch'Rihan. The Romulans among their own are called Rihannsu. I've always wondered though, if Remus isn't somewhat similar in purpose to the dreaded Klingon mines of Rura Penthe? That they send prisoners including Romulans and anyone else they find unfit to that black rock the Praetor called it? That's why Remans "adopt" a prisoner or whomever is dropped there. They refer to them as brother despite their differences as they share the same fate. It would be difficult for the Remans to settle as they must restrict themselves to planets where underground facilities can be built. Unless they have technology to either shield the planet from the bright sun, or darken a planet entirely. Star Wars had a similar technology called the Orbital Nightcloak. It could remove the sun from a planet forcing its denizens to accept Imperial Rule. But for the Remans it would have been a godsend. It would have made any suitable sun drenched planet into an eternal night, similar to Remus.

Is this guy impersonating me? What the hell! Why do I have a whole alien species based on me!?

Hssssss! The day star! It burns us!!!!

I always found it interesting whether or not the Remans are related to Romulans. Apparently not in alpha canon, but I digress.

I always wondered if remains were related to romulans and vulcans

I thought they were underground romulans 😆 what ya learn yo

I find i very difficult to believe that a earthlike planet or class m. Can be completely devoid of life. And another space travelling race can JUST be the very first bi-peds.

I wonder what happened to them since the star around both Romulus and Remus blew up.

fuck yeah, i was hoping for this

I always thought Remens were already there when the Romulans arrived but now it looks like they are cousins. Most likely Romulans adapted to mining like the trogladites in "The Cloud Miners"".

I’d like to see the kahleesh

Could it be that they are not related to vulcans, with the romulans being a mix breed of the Vulcan separatists and reman natives

Perhaps the Remans are not related to the Vulcans at all, but they interbred with the early Romulans?

It only just occurred to me that if modern Romulan warp drives use quantum singularities, then their ships don't have a critical need for dilithium

Remans are Vulcans!!

Something I have never understood is why the Romulans would need dilithium, since they used artificial forced singularities rather than matter/antimatter reactions. Ostensibly dilithium wouldn't be needed.

Aren't the Remans know for making the best weapons?

I find it very unfair to the Remans that they were kind of cast as an antagonist in Nemesis, and made to look "mean and ugly", in the tired old trope that ugly aliens are the baddies. If Shinzon hadn't been such a looney who wanted to destroy everything (again, a tired trope), he might have freed them from the Romulans and led them to independence and peaceful cooperation with the other races.
