Ferengi

  History:   The word that best describes the Ferengi are "pests."
             They have been known to put their nose where it doesn't
             belong and have no objective but to turn a profit in any
             of their dealings.

  Weapons:   Ferengi weaponry is inadequate against Federation shields
             and deflectors.  Their only advantage is speed and
             meneuverability, yet even that isn't much of an advantage.

  Advice:    Due to their lack of threat, ignoring them is the proper
             thing to do.  Although they can be pests, if they realize
             no profit is to be gained, they will go away.

  Starfleet: Starfleet refuses to engage in trade or relations with
             the Ferengi empire.  Little is known about their culture.
