Cardassia Prime
Episode: DS9 401 - Emissary, Part I

The formal name of the Cardassian homeworld -- a world other than the third, fourth or fifth planet of the system -- although natives often informally drop the "Prime."

Its capital city is awash with giant and continuous state-controlled messages extolling self-sacrifice, order, and subservience to the government -- with a characteristic emphasis on the family and children.  The central prison is located there.

Another city is Lakaria City. It is only one of dozens of worlds devastated economically with the old order's collapse and the Klingon invasion. An ancient Bajoran solar sailor's crash site on the planet was kept secret out of pride until Commander Sisko and Jake's historic trip recreating the accomplishment in in 2371.
