Ikaaran

The Ikaarans are a humanoid species from the planet Ikarra VII.

They were once a range of nomadic tribes, fighting for the planets resources. A group of tribes settled in the northern area of the single continent and founded the Republic of Ikarra VII. Some violent tribes had begun to attack military installations of the Republic, leading to the militarization of the city-states of the Republic on the border. The Ikaaran Civil War soon sprung up on the planet.

In 2534, they made contact with the Terran Federation and tried to convince them to assist them. However, they refused, saying they could not interfere in the internal affairs of the planet. Some families however, requested to their government that their children be transported, which both parties agreed to.
