Ah, the good old Romulans. Did you know Star Trek has two Neutral Zones, one buffering the Federation from Romulan space and one from Klingon space? (What am I saying; if you're reading this, you're probably geeky enough to be answering, "Uh, yes," out loud right now.) I guess they figured if one Neutral Zone was good, two would be even better.
The other thing from Star Trek that you can violate at the drop of a hat is of course the Prime Directive.
If there's one thing to be learnt from all this it's the following: If you write absolutely inviolable laws into your fictional setting, it's a guarantee that one day your heroes will have to break them and then come up with an excuse for doing so.
Not that this is a bad thing - I'm just sayin'.
