Cardassians were one of the main parts of the storyline in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. ...
Bareil became a trusted advisor to Kai Winn. The Kai changed her mind and adopted a more friendly stance towards the Federation and Commander Sisko. Bareil eventually began peace talks with the Cardassians. He later died in an accident. At the time of his death he assisted the Kai to conclude the peace agreement.
Kai Winn later tried to consolidate her hold on power after the death of the Bajoran First Minister. Her actions nearly caused a civil war. Major Kira of DS9 convinced her old friend and resistance cell leader Shakaar to run for election to the post to head off a civil war. Shakaar was able to handily win election to the post of First Minister, after Kai Winn withdrew from the election.

Kai Winn turned away from the prophets, and became a tool of the Pah-Wraiths. She helped Dukat to the Fire Caves - the home of the Pah Wraiths. She betrayed Dukat by giving him poison. However Dukat was able to recover from the poison with the assistance of the Pah Wraiths. Captain Sisko arrived and defeated Dukat and the Pah Wraiths. In the final moments of her life, Kai Winn turned back to the Prophets and tried to throw the Book of the Kosst-Amojan in to the pit of fire. She was then consumed and killed by the Pah Wraiths.
At the end of the Deep Space Nine television series, the post of Kai was again vacant. However an election for the next Kai was underway at the time. It has not been revealed who won that election. Some believed Vedek Ungtae was a strong contender.
