Rom

Rom is the current of the Ferengi Alliance. He is the father of Captain Nog, husband of Leeta, and brother of Quark of Quark Enterprises.

Background
Rom ascended to his position in 2375, when appointed him as the new Grand Nagus as he thought he would be the perfect Nagus for a "new Ferenginar". In 2386, Rom used tax proceeds to start free schools which caused protests that rocked the capital of Ferenginar. Many Ferengi saw the free education as an assault on traditional values, and the demonstrations continued until Rom charged each protester ten slips of latinum for mass assembly without a proper permit. To get a permit to protest, Rom charged a bar of latinum and proceeds were used to fund the educational system.

The following year, social and economic reforms pushed by Grand Nagus Rom were a topic almost as important as the stock market. After several lawmakers were paid to vote against it, a bill which could have allowed the Ferengi Alliance to formally ally itself with the Federation was officialy rejected.

In 2405, Rom used a portion of the profits from his trade agreements with the Cardassians to finance the passage of expanded technology and information sharing agreements with the Federation. When opposition from the Economic Congress of Ferengi Advisers proved too costly to overcome, Rom took his victories and ended his fight for a formal alliance with the Federation.
