Klingon Neutral Zone
The Klingon Neutral Zone, sometimes known as the Organian Neutral Zone, appeared to be set up during the time of the Star Trek: The Original Series. Unlike the Romulan Neutral Zone, the Klingon Neutral Zone appeared to have some commercial traffic crossing it.
The Organians were non-corporeal beings from the planet Organia IV, which was strategically situated between the Klingon Empire and the Federation. When both parties, thinking them a pre-industrial people, attempted to occupy their world, they revealed their posthuman nature and imposed the Neutral Zone and a peace treaty between the two powers. In Klingon it was known as orghenya' rojmab (Organian Peace Treaty).
The zone was the site of the Kobayashi Maru scenario in the film Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
The Klingon Neutral Zone was abolished by the Khitomer Accords in 2293.

That hurry through the eternal halls,
A makeweight flying to the void,
Supplemental asteroid,
Or compensatory spark,
Shoots across the neutral Dark.”
