The Ushaan an ancient Andorian tradition involving a duel to the death via an ice miner's tool known as the ushaan-tor.
Th'Pev, an Andorian Ensign in Starfleet during the Klingon War of 2256, was two-time ushaan champion and considered the ushaan highly competitive against the bat'leth.
By 2409, the Andorian tradition was illegal under Federation law leading the tradition to be performed in non-lethal ways. The Mountain Park on Andoria serves as an Ushaan arena where anybody may compete in duels, albeit not specifically using the ushaan-tor or following any of the specifics of the ritual.
