Aftermath of The Earth-Minbari War
When the fifth and final Babylon station—Babylon 5—was built, the Minbari provided support for construction on the condition that they got to choose the commander. The Grey Council used this to have Sinclair selected as the Commander of the station. Council member Delenn became the Minbari Ambassador to the station in order to remain close to Sinclair.
In 2258 Delenn was recalled to lead the Grey Council. Delenn felt that she should remain on Babylon 5. She asked the council to reconsider their decision, which they did. She returned to the station.
In 2259 Sinclair was reassigned to be the first Ambassador to Minbar. Later in 2259 Delenn was removed from the Grey Council. She was replaced by Neroon—a member of the warrior caste. This led to four warriors on the council, a break from the balance of the past.

Men ... all men for fighting ... but no war, no wars to fight ... what is it, what does it mean?””
