The Ferengi are an alien race in the world of Star Trek.  They first appear in Star Trek: The Next Generation.


Here’s a brief snippet about them:

“Their home planet, Ferenginar, is the center of the Ferengi Alliance and is governed by the Grand Nagus and a Commerce Authority made primarily of the Council of Economic Advisors (formerly Board of Liquidators). Like most of their culture, their religion is also based on the principles of capitalism: they offer prayers and monetary offerings to a Blessed Exchequer in hopes of entering the "Divine Treasury" upon death, and fear an afterlife spent in the Vault of Eternal Destitution.”   


Bear with me please … I do have a life, honestly.
