[quoteost_uid0="Nan"][color=#000000ost_uid0]I have no idea why the PTBs named the planet "Reman" in [iost_uid0]Nemesis[/iost_uid0]. It was referred to as Remus in TOS. *grinds teeth* Although, it's called "Romii" on StarTrek.com. Ugh.[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]I thought "Reman" was the adjective only, alongside "Romulan." Have to go back and see Nemesis to check--didn't they say "Remus" to refer to the planet?

I do remember that in "Balance of Terror" Spock talks about the twin planets Romulus and Remus while pointing to a graphic that says Romulus and Romii. That's why StarTrek.com is confused. As far as I know, that graphic is the only canonical reference to Romii.

Think of it as the Vulcanis of the Romulan Empire. [/colorost_uid0]
