A question, which was not seen on screen, from Spock's memory test in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home established that Rigel IV at one point signed a peace treaty with Argus. The treaty was important because it set a legal precedent that, All beings may not be created equal yet shall be given equal opportunity and treatment under the law. [2]
