To follow up on my question, I can't seem to enter a parsec that has another civ's ship in it.

You have answered your own question. You can't move in to the same parsec as an opposing civ ship because that would start a war.

unless you try moving a non combat ship onto an occupied parsec. I have never tried it but I assume that it is not allowed.

To sum up, you wanna declare a war. ATTACK them.

Attack the enemy ship by right-clicking it (using a ship with weapons of course). If you have a more advanced government, your population will get to vote on whether you go to war or not. Wouldn't it be nice if it went that way in real life... hmm....

Also you could find a race that's at war with your target, and then trade an attack on the target for something. It's lots of fun to trade a declaration of war (on a civ much weaker than your own) for stuff from one race, and then trade a peace treaty for more stuff from the target
