Minos Korva is a Federation planet located near the Demilitarized Zone and the border with the Cardassian Union.
In 2369, the Cardassians planned to resume hostilities with the Federation and began by invading Minos Korva, hiding a large invasion force in the nearby MacAllister Nebula. However, due to the efforts of Captain Edward Jellico and the crew of the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D), the invasion failed. (TNG episode: "Chain of Command, Part II")
During the Dominion War between 2373-2375, Minos Korva was on the front-lines of the Dominion advance into the Alpha Quadrant. The Dominion was unable to capture the planet, due to the large Starfleet defense force of Nebula and Norway-class starships. (SCE eBook: War Stories)
In 2376, the Bajoran First minister Shakaar Edon visited Minos Korva as part of a tour of the Federation. He took a four day tour around the scenic western mountains, an isolated, low populated area. During this tour he was infected by a spawnmother parasite who had been living there alone for some time. (DS9 novel: Unity)
