The 22nd century, defined in the calendar of Earth as the period from 2101 to 2200, was a period of change for Earth. In the early part of the century, Earth reshaped its society under the paternalistic guidance of the Vulcans. The mid-century was a particularly eventful time, with the launch of Earth's first starship capable of speeds up to warp 5, the Xindi attack on Earth, and the Earth-Romulan War. Contacts and alliances made in the 2150s paved the way for the founding of the United Federation of Planets in 2161. (Star Trek: Enterprise)
