Eminiar VII was the seventh planet in the Eminiar planetary system. This system was located in star cluster NGC 321. This planet had a Class M atmosphere. The planet was the home for the Eminian Union, the principal civilization of the star cluster NGC 321.
Eminiar fought a war with the third planet in the system, Vendikar, that lasted for five hundred years before James Kirk put a stop to it in 2267. The civilization was advanced, having had space flight for several hundred years, but it had elected not to venture outside of its solar system. Legitimate targets in the war included vessels orbiting the planet, a fact that caused Kirk considerable difficulty during his visit. (TOS: "A Taste of Armageddon")
In 2268, when held captive by the Kelvans, Captain Kirk asked Lieutenant Commander Spock if he could repeat what he did with the guard on Eminair VII by tricking him into believing the landing party had escaped. The attempt worked, but only briefly before the Kelvans recapture the landing party. (TOS: "By Any Other Name")
A view of the surface of Eminiar VII was depicted on several viewscreens on Deep Space 9's Promenade and Replimat (DS9: "The Muse") advertising a trip to the "scenic Eminiar VII". (DS9: "What You Leave Behind")
