Characteristics
The characters in the Mirror Universe are aggressive, mistrustful and opportunistic in personality. Whereas the Star Trek universe depicts an optimistic future in which the Earth-based democratic United Federation of Planets values peace, co-operation and exploration, episodes set in the Mirror Universe feature the human-dominated totalitarian Terran Empire which values war, despotism and conquest instead. Humans in the Mirror Universe are typically referred to as "Terrans".
