Talax, also known as Talaxia, was an M-class planet and the homeworld of the Talaxian people. The planet was located in the Talaxian planetary system in the Delta Quadrant and had at least one moon, Rinax. (VOY: "Jetrel", "Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy", "Dragon's Teeth")

Talax, along with its territories, was seized by the Haakonian Order in the year 2356, at the conclusion of the Talaxian-Haakonian War. (VOY: "Jetrel") The planet remained under Haakonian control well into the 2370s. (VOY: "Homestead")

One of the most pleasant places on the planet was the Paxau Resort, where the rich and famous went to relax. (VOY: "Remember") Notable landforms, remembered fondly by Neelix and Dexa, included the Axiana Lakes and the Godo Mountain Range. (VOY: "Homestead") Another landform, the Pyrithian Gorge, was the site of a battle between the Haakonians and Talaxians during their war. (VOY: "Jetrel")

Due to the premise of Star Trek: Voyager, the Talaxian homeworld could not be regularly featured as a setting on the series. (Star Trek: Voyager - A Vision of the Future, p. 164)
According to the reference book Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 78), by 2378, the official name of the government on Talax (Talax IV) was the Autonomous Province of Talax. The government was seated in the capital city of Paxau. The dominant species were the humanoid Talaxians. An estimated 14.2 billion Talaxians lived on the planet. The Talaxians had been warp capable since antiquity.
