My favorite Legends species are the Yinchorri, Trandoshans, Chiss, and Kel Dor. Favorite canon species are Chiss, Kel Dor, and Umbarans.
Eck2: Gets embarrassed dancing with a twi'lek
Eckhart: humans spread across the galaxy and can breed with some non-humans
Me: Can I have 1. a Twi'lek, 2. a Togruta, 3. a Chiss and 4. a Zeltron please?
Also, favorite races are mentioned plus Wookies. What's the point of having a beautiful alien harem if you don't have a best friend to crack open a cold one with after fighting the Empire all day?
The amount of interspecies stds must have been truly staggering
Prob create a super std whipe out mass of people 😂

Actually, it might not have been that many. The transfer of pathogens between species is very rare, and aliens and the pathogens they are susceptible to would have had very different evolutionary pathways compared to us and our pathogens.
@@pranavmadala2561 I disagree. If those species can breed, surely there are sufficiently similar biological reasons (like DNA / RNA analogues) for both conception and infection. We even caught public lice from sex with gorillas.
@@rajasmasala I just assumed humans were banging aliens around the galaxy and not making babys.
Because the human race is the Mario of the Star Wars species, an All-round class. Not the strongest, not smartest, not fastest, not the oldest. But no significant disadvantages either.
I disagree. I think humanity is exceptional in a number of ways. A hardy construction, and ability to keep going even when in extreme environment makes humanity on the up and up. Add in the simple fact that humans are creative, and industrious and you have a chemical mixture set to success.
@@irontemplar6222 I agree, but its all relative. This is the case within the Star Wars universe, but perhaps in our reality, we are some where on a spectrum of intelligent species that have existed within the universe, all having varying degrees of these attributes that you mentioned.
Ego tells us that we are at the top of the list, but reality tells us that we are a sample of one and have absolutely no idea of the potential intelligences out there.
@@marsbase3729no apparently its the opposite. Because 99% of the time we cant seem to create a fantasy or science fiction race without them immediately being humans, but better in most subjects, and occasionally worse than us. We fail to acknowledge our own abilities, because we think they are and would be the standard if not inferior.
also your own argument can be used aginst you for all we know the rest of the galaxy is full of dumb races, and that's why we have received no contact. because they are still kicking around in the stone age. But that's the Femie paradox for you.
@@irontemplar6222 I'd argue that Umbarans are smarter than humans, but are less willing to explore and advance. Zygerians are just as smart But, they made a lot of people hate them with their slave trade. Rakatans are smart but, they made a lot of toxic decisions that made them hated throughout the galaxy and put them back into a stone age.
Twileks are just as smart But, often end up being slaves. Kel Dor are smarter than most humans imo because they tend to be more collective, focused, and rational. Mon Calamari are smarter than humans, but their biology makes them less adaptable on land.
@@irontemplar6222 your strongest sith lords (before darth vader) aren't exactly human, theres nothing exceptional about them if you look into the past.
Battlefront 2's description of humans actually references that their planet of origin is unknown, however their homeworld is widely considered to be Coruscant.
So we just sort of showed up and started taking shit?
Well that’s certainly sounds like us
Humans are generalists, able to live almost anywhere with minimal accommodation. The perfect build for mass expansion.
And with their high int stats and a more advanced crafting ability that seems to have no defined limit other than the human's own mastery and skill, they can create complex tools and mounts capable of augmenting their stats to immense levels to match and surpass builds that would have easily levelled them.
Alpha Wygerion someone’s been watching tier zoo haven’t they
@@justsomeguy1014 Indeed.
Almost anywhere? You must mean almost anywhere between sea level and about 3km high. Minimal accommodation? You must mean minimal accommodation beyond two to fifty liters of drinkable water per person per day, plus as much water as necessary to grow food.
@@sanjaymatsuda4504 That's only for the current build that humans can reach. Given time, they'll be able to learn the incredibly useful "Terraform" ability, which would allow them to shape their environment so that it would be a better place to set up high-tier nests in...or spec in enough points in both the "Engineering" and "Architecture" branch of their Crafting ability to unlock "Underwater Infrastructure". As for the water problem, they already have methods of converting undrinkable water to drinkable water, it's just that it isn't employed on a scale that would make the water crisis nonexistent.

Star Wars happened "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away". Maybe we're descended from the humans of Coruscant.
Hmm, yes, the fruit of a long forgotten voyage to the unknown.
Or they descended from us. Humans on Earth in our future traveled back in time, and traveled through a wormhole to a galaxy far far away, to Coruscant ... for unknown reasons.

It would make sense. Humans in real life went from muzzle loading muskets, to landing on the moon in less than 100 years. Imagine that in the Star Wars galaxy over thousands of years, access to countless worlds of resources, and elements. I read an interesting article that there could be elements out there that are inherently anti-gravity. Harnessing this element would give us lightspeed travel virtually overnight
Now that you mention it it does make sense for something like that to happen
@ChairForce it was proven recently that gravity is a wave. Mass does not “have” gravity
@ChairForce sorry, you need to update your science. It has been proven somewhat recently when we detected gravitational effects from two different black holes in space.
@ChairForce whatever dude, no need to get all upset, you don’t have to believe me. I could hardly believe it the first time I read it myself.
@ChairForce Where did you guys learn all of this science? It sounds really interesting. I just wish the conversation was much more civil.
Easy: we are the horniest.

LMAO I'm not surprised that one of the contributing factors is that we can, do, & WANT to bone as many aliens as possible. Hilarious
Subverse, ever heard of that before?
Clap damn alien cheeks
We have gigantic books about doing the reproductor act without actually reproducing
I think Plagueis commented as well on this in that humans are arrogant, demanding, cunning and just biologically more adaptable then other species. Favourite species? Gotta say Whiphid.
Humans are actually wildly frail, barely adaptable to our own planet without gear, preparation, etc. Held up by our intelligence and opposable thumbs. Essentially fine dexterity (ability to manipulate tools, etc) and highly developed intelligence, is why we dominate Earth. In Star Wars we’re pretty much biologically one of the weakest races.
@@krawr2187 biologically frail yes, but he mentions other species that are far less resilient and suspectible because of their own sensitive and flawed immune systems. Weak yes, but a bit more resilient then a lot of other species that exist in the SW universe.
Sergio Ruiz the Chiss are literally an example of forced evolution by the environment and our ability to just "Get Good" at living in such environments 👌
That's true especially if you look at humans on other video games.
@@krawr2187 yes, individually. IMHO it's the group, the community that makes us strong. E pluribus unim: one from many. A dozen firefighters can perform miracles.
You often see aliens alone and humans in clumps. Han, Chewie, Leia, and Luke hold a rather impressive set of talents that mesh well.

In movies, It's very important for the heroes to have expressive and relatable faces, hence why the main characters of the entire serie are all humans.
Yeah, like jar jar and chewbacca
@@chungosbruhthe1st jar jar is a comic relief and Chewbacca is solo's sidekick. Not main characters
I always figured humans were seen as useful servants by the Rakatans given how wide a variety of environments we can inhabit.
Thus humans ended up sprinkled all over the galaxy.
I am reminded of how I explain heavy human populations in my tabletop games. "They are so numerous because they are the fastest-breeding sentient species known. They might as well be bipedal rabbits."
Also, favorite race in Star Wars has to be the Trandoshans. Mad love for those BAMF space lizards.
But what about the attacks on the Wookies?!
@@DraconimLt Disregarding any morality, any species that can fight and/or hunt Wookiees is worthy of respect.
@@CatoNovus I get what you mean, but I don't think 'respect' is the right word lol. As for Trando's, I don't hate the entire species or anything, just the slavers and individuals like Bossk. Besides, while trandoshans look cool, I think the Noghri are cooler. 😁
@@DraconimLt Keep in mind, I don't conflate the concepts of respect and admiration. I respect Darth Vader, but I don't like him.
Also, a lot of people like to say those of us who were 10 and under when we first saw RotJ liked it because of the Ewoks and how they remind us of our teddy bears. I didn't care for my teddy, but I did have a plush gator in a polo shirt(which itself, had a stitched-on gator emblem) that I loved, so I'll admit my probable bias on that.
I hated the Ewoks. Years after first seeing RotJ, I'd heard that originally the battle of the Second Death Star was going to be over Kashyyk, and felt like we got robbed.
@@CatoNovus I know what you meant by 'respect', but the definitions of respect are:
1) a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements & 2) due regard for the feelings, wishes, or rights of others.
I think the word 'recognition' works better here, ie. 'worthy of recognition', no sense of a positive (or negative) bias to the term then. You can recognize any quality without approving of it, respect implies a possitive without a qualifier word.
As for a battle over Kashyyyk (you missed a 'y' lol), that'd've been cool! Wookies joining the fight? Heck yeah!
We breed like rabbits.

Defend ourselves with the ferocity of a Honey Badger.

HFY!
Thats a good one
Im imagining the power puff girls intro while reading that
what if humanity in real life exists all over the universe, and millions of years ago for whatever reason a colony was placed on earth with no surviving evidence of there being any other human life outside of earth
I like this theory
If a colony was placed on Earth we abould be able to notice it in the groups of amino acids we use. And we share tons of DNA with other species and have common ancestor species that are millions of years old
Because we have conclusive proof that we evolved from earlier life forms
@Christine Taggart Well if an ancient text says it it must be true. Who would lie in an ancient text?
@Christine Taggart I think you misread something. A common hypothesis for abiogenesis (the origin of life from non-living chemical compounds) is that some amino acids that life uses/needs came to earth in meteorites. But if DNA came from outer space that would undoubtedly confirm the existence of alien life, albeit bacterial life. So trust me, no DNA of ours came from outer space
I agree, Humans are really easy to costume, proof is: I cosplay as one everyday ;)
Hey that was my cosplay
Humans are Space Orc
hey u copy me- i mean nice drip dude for dressing as a human
I saw a video awhile ago about how humans could’ve arrived through sleeper ships from our galaxy to the starwars galaxy by falling through a wormhole? Idk it also had something to do with humans fighting against rogue AI that had imprisoned them.. it linked with one of Lucas’ earlier films apparently idk
Yeah I guess that book was never finished so it's not cannon. Oh well
I always liked the old theory that the Celestials transplanted some early humans on Earth and placed them in the Star Wars Galaxy and they eventually multiplied and spread out across the Galaxy, becoming the humans we know of in the films today.
Is that old theory now? It still exists in swg but as myth now
There was another theory that was about a wormhole drive malfunction in a live test of a colony ship in the 26th century causing a ship and all it's inhabitants to be warped to the star wars galaxy. Which is another old theory now

They'll just take a human, paint it blue and there you have it Alien. Where is *Halo* has done a fantastic job. Look at the various Alien Species--with the exception of Forerunners. The Aliens are so different and inspiring. If you think deeply you can imagine that there are probably close approximations out there.
@@pastordonkoh7692 to be fair making an alien that's not using makeup and doesn't require an obscene amount of money or just plain cgi can be difficult.
@@pastordonkoh7692 to be fair about specifically the asari in mass effect I don't think they physically look like what they do as stated in some bits of lore because every race sees asari as looking like themselves even when races are radically different from human they all hauntingly perceive themselves in the asari. Spookiest of all this even continues to be the case where the power that hides the asari's true forms also applies to statues on the asari homeworld.
But to be fair mass effect actually did have a good deal of diversity of appearences of species of aliens even so far as having walking jellyfish the only real painted human outliers that come to mind though is the quarians (but we don't really know their true body structure outside the suit i don't think) and the asari which may not actually look the way we perceive them.

@@justnoah2073 there was the oversized banana slug who was fixing a panel by staring at it.
Probably a mix of:
- birth-rate (many longer lived species have fewer children)
- adaptability (humans can live almost everywhere - cold? So what, warm clothes work and they aren't reptiles who might shut down in the cold...warm? Again, wear almost no clothes and sweat to cool)
- favourable planets colonized
- low mortality (some other species fight each other and are likely to die young)
- mindset (humans bond together to hunt and survive, while still being individualistic - unlike say the Togruta who (if raised on their homeworld) often aren't very individualistic and see the clan as more important than themselves!)
Favourite species hm? - Either the Falleen or the Twi'leks :)
Possibly or my opinion is most likely because of pure coincidence combined with humans head start in technology and their history and pressure to adapt and expand and other alien species had no need to do so because courisaunts history was violent human nations or at the time the zhell must have fought each other and fought the tuang evidently the zhell won because had they lost the would be drivin offworld like the original mandalorians aka the tuang so the zhell won and possibly felt the need to survive by expanding leading to there dominance and itd probably be no different with an alien species, just like naturally humans are more adaptable, horny and so on in everything else than some species NOT ALL but some species and some other species like tugruta or sith can be more so at all those and possibly have more potential than humans its a massive universe out there and even then beyond that the multiverse think about it.
Of course just all my opinion.
Humans are slow breeders and woman are susceptible to dying in child birth. Our hips narrowed and heads enlarged making it difficult to give birth compared to our mammalian relatives.
Our bodies are not particularly adaptable. Sure we can wear clothes, but so can any other species. We are born and live naked with our fragile skin exposed to the elements. We overcome this with our intelligence.
Your point on teamwork is valid though, we are very social creatures.
Realistically, if we were looking at purely biological reasons for humans success in Star Wars, Plagues's description wouldn't be too far off.
Brains, team work, and murder, that's humanity's motto.
@@Heligoland360You're downplaying alot and overreaching the rest. Humans are not slow breeders, for out size we breed incredibly fast. Also humans have pretty much evolved past mating seasons so being able to reproduce year round is a huge benefit. Yes women can still die during childbirth, except with modern medicine the rates are almost zero in developed countries because there has to be some major issues with the woman for the pregnancy to threaten her life. Yes, childbirth is harder on humans because of the large head and smaller hips, but again, with modern medicine babies just shoot out a good amount of the time, my wife never had any issues with labor all three times and neither did my sisters. Our bodies are very adaptable, that's why people in high altitudes have more hemoglobin, why blacks are better in extreme sunlight, why whites are better in colder areas, and why people who dive constantly for food and fish have developed larger lungs and better oxygen distribution so they can hold their breath a crazy amount of time. No, other animals cannot wear clothes, they'd need humans around to make the clothes. We didn't have anything but rocks and sticks when we took over the world, which happened basically overnight, and it's because of how easily we can adapt. It took elephants millions of years to evolve to the artic and it took humans like 2,000 years
@@joelbibeault1169 No we don't breed incredibly fast for our size, that's ludicrous. Gorillas are larger and reach sexual maturity twice as quickly and have shorter gestation times to boot.
Blue Whales reach sexual maturity age 5. Aged 5! That's 3 generations by the time humans can get out 1. Gestation times are longer for them tho tbf.
The fact that humans are comparable to whales in breeding speed makes us slow breeders. This is not to mention litter sizes, which for most animals is more than one. A dog can have more young in one year than most humans will have in their lifetime.
Edit, sorry didn't read the rest because that complaint was silly.
As for adaptability, you mention regional evolved differences between humans like skin tone. Those take 10s of thousands of years to evolve, not merely hundreds like in Stellaris, otherwise black Americans would be pale af by now.
Yes humans adapted to vastly different environments through the use of technology such as clothing, but we are talking about physiological adaptivity as any species could use technology to adapt.
I wouldn't call humans non-adaptive, as you mentioned with adaptation to elevation, tanning, and warm-bloodedness, but our lack of fur makes us completely reliant on clothing to survive any changes in temperature. Compare that to rats which cover a similar range to humans, but with no tech, or wolves which change the thickness of their coat dependent on season and climate.
We're not that adaptive even compared to animals on Earth. We're especially lackluster in the Star Wars universe where you have the Mon Calamari breathing on land and underwater. We're on the lower end of mid for adaptability realistically.
@@joelbibeault1169 We are not fast breeders for our size. Gorillas are significantly larger, but have shorter gestation times and reach seuxal maturity twice as quickly.
Whales reach sexual maturity aged 5. Aged 5! They have longer gestation periods than humans (10-18 months), but not that much longer. They have longer gaps between children, but shorter gaps between generations. Our breeding speed is comparable to the largest animals on Earth, that is not "very fast for our size".

Fun fact: The Chiss were basically confirmed to be a forgotten human colony that evolved in a different direction due to minerals on the planet. As best as I can remember, Chiss and Zeltrons could both have children with regular humans.
The Chiss have always been a fascinating faction for me, both in terms of their culture and the potential of their position in the galaxy, thankful for the Thrawn's Revenge mod for letting us be able to play with Chiss tech and influenced units.
The Tradoshans as well, because Bossk is always fun to play, but I also enjoy the trope of the alien species of hunters. Would like to see a game where you play as a custom bounty hunter in Star Wars and have the option to play as a Trandoshan, but with each optional species having pros and cons.

Convergent evolution?
@@steppin-razor convergent evolution would only give rise to a species that "looks" human or actually only similar to a human. Twi'liks,Zarbaks & say the Turguta would be examples of convergent evolution. So would other bi pedal species. Genetically they shouldn't even be able to breed with a human unless humans & other humanoids in Star wars have a common origin(but hey this is sci fi right...Captian Kirk probably has lil green kids accross the galaxy himself so its possible guys like Han & Lando have half human love children accross the Star Wars galaxy also) Also humans should have specieted over the 100's of thousands of years spent in vastly differnt climates with no contact to each other to the point that offspring would be nearly impossible. Humans have covered the globe but also come from a small base population that has intermingled genetically for the last 100k years our more. But back to convergent evolution. Bats & Birds are examples of convergent evolution. The Wolf & the extinct Tasmanian Wolf is another example. Whales & Sharks are another. They only look similar because they evolved in similar habitats(yeah i know im over sciencing the Star Wars universe

Yesss! I agree! It would be SO great to see an alien be a protagonist in a film! It'd be a leap in creativity and bravery for the creators which we just haven't seen yet!
Yeah it's be sick to have a movie about a Bith Sith. I think that one problem, though, is that people only associate Bith with the cantina band, rather than actual characters. I think that the first alien protagonist in a movie should be a species that would be more widely recognized outside of one scene, like maybe a Mon Calamari, or maybe take species that are seen more in the shows, like a Togruta, Twi'lek, or Lasat.

" I did make it with a hot alien babe. And in the end is that not what man has dreamt of since first he looked up at the stars?"
Twi'leks are my favorite
I would disagree.
more like absolute domination and destruction of everything that is not humans.
suffer not the xenos to live.
Yes, inquisitor. This Slaaneshi cultist right here.
Yeah glory to the emperor and all that, but the Twi’leks are kinda cute though...
because we do not have enough aliens on earth to star in star wars.
Yup, Area 51's capacities are not that high
Aliens are not interested to colonize earth
Well it is because we have this thing called Generation Tech who bravely fought there way through the alien scum
#HumanityFirst
Correct
they founded Cerberus

I mean the almost the entirety of the galaxy can speak english so i guess the british have colonized it
Just cause hollywood is englishspeaking.
Or you see a lot of mix in any part of the commonwealth, or maybe any natives or mix in united states? Ha!
@@Trolasso_Gazpachero Well but it is questionable, should we some time in the far far future, form a planetary and later on galactic government, that the 300+ languages we got on Earth would all survive.
There would be a common tongue, depending on how politics evolve this will be either English or Chinese, but probably English, since it's already established (or a mix of the two?) and then maybe some other few dialects and languages ascending from languages with a large number of speakers like the Romanistic languages and Germanic and Slavic Languages, with maybe some nowadays disctinct languages like Spanish and Italian mixing and forming a unified new language.
I doubt that small distinct languages with only a few hundred or a only few thousand speakers are going to survive, they'll probably go extinct and become dead languages like Latin, with historians learning them so they can understand, from their point of view, ancient texts.

Humanity Forever. We are the beginning, and the end...
Especially "the end"...
There is this unfinished book that was supposed to come out before episode 1 that was supposed to tie all of Lucas’s films together and explain how humans got from Earth to Coracant via accidental time travel through a black hole because they were fleeing the world of X-23 or what ever the name of that movie was called
Because they have the high ground.
Darth Plagueis TLDR: *Humans see something neat* Ooo, what's that?
It of course would be us to steal something from a more advanced species.
Because they could travel without moving and they produced the Muad'Dib, the Kwisatz Haderach!
Wait... What universe is this again?
The humans control the spice, and he who controls the spice controls the universe.
I mean it’s not just humans, it seems like a ton of species are extremely humanoid.
The Humanoid form is biologically superior. Not the human race in particular though. We're squishy little things with an uncanny ability to have an ego that eclipses stars...
@Bernie M no its literally. Biologically superior form for intelligence. The being must be bipedal so that its eyes can observe its surroundings and contemplate rather than stare at the ground. Leaving its arms free to manipulate tools and objects. Forward facing eyes to distinguish depth and for hunting as to give the required nutrients for brain growth.
@@BB-ce5ev Dolphins and Ants disagree
@@apenasmaisumdiogo.7115 ants never have been on the Moon
I don't know about ants, but Dolphins certainly did before us, How do you think they escaped the Vogon invasion?
I think the idea of humans chosen by the force as something like a universal wildfire
They propagate everywhere, and always cause trouble. Some times they do horrible shit (the empire, the clone wars, etc etc) but other times they do very good things too (Luke Skywalker was a human after all)
They bring life to the galaxy the same way a wildfire revitalizes a forest and gets rid of dead dried up trees.
Every human gansta
Until they made first contact with the Covenant
Or forerunners
The covenant wouldn't last five minutes in the starwars universe. Their weapons are crude plasma weapons. There's a gas in the starwars universe that dissipates plasma bolts. Their main weapon would be useless, their capitol ships would be at a major disadvantage in the starwars universe, AND the master chief is less capable than an average Jedi knight. Force users would wreck any covenant force with relative ease.
@@aaronself2411 flood
@@azarishere6442 That's a tough one. There's some species who would be immune to the flood, but more than likely the flood would take over the majority of the universe.
@@azarishere6442 But also, maybe not. I'm not super well versed on the flood, so I may be wrong about this but they can only advance as far as the best technology that surrounded them, which if true would put them at a pretty big disadvantage. Not the least bit the amount of personal armour that exists within starwars, not to mention personal shields. It's a fight that could go a lot of ways.
im glad someone addressed this issue, from reading the expanded universe it seemed weird that humans were dominate. the reason given is what i suspected tho.
We are Human, it's our destiny to rule the stars to rule them all.
Nah, it's our destiny to create an Orion Belt Federation from the former Convenent races, and start exploring galaxies.

Favorite species, besides humans because I am one (last time I checked anyway) would probably be Wookies. They have the capability to expand much further than they have but choose not to and their lifestyle hides how technologically advanced they actually are.

Humans are Space Orcs
@Aesthetic Decision Those are even worse. Advocating for the wholesale genocide of farm animals.
@Aesthetic Decision Vegans. What do you think will happen to lets say cattle when meat and milk get banned? (Mind you Im being slightly sarcastic.)
As opposite to real life humans who aren't an invasive specie?
Not to mention, the Pius Dea period of the Republic probably helped a lot since it was incredibly human-centric and led multiple crusades against other species.
Legends: Original Mandalorian
Canon: Twi'leks
My favorite Star Wars species in Legends are the Amarans, perhaps unsurprising given my username. The Amarans are a diminutive vulpinoid species, resembling bipedal red foxes and standing a little taller than an Ewok on average. They're known for being gregarious and habitual hagglers; they also have a propensity for taming non-sentient species.
Sadly, the Amarans haven't appeared in Canon yet, but one can always hope!
WOW has created a fox race called Vulpera, you might like them

Finally a video using the Darth Plagueis book for reference. My favorite of the novels
Seeing all of the comments here detesting the foul xenos here really makes my day. The reason humanity rules the stars is because it is our destiny, just as it is the destiny of the xeno to pave our way.
we are going to the stars - oh looks like there is others here - lets kill them all.

That type of prejudice would surely doom humanity if/when we approached other advanced civilizations. They would see us as a virus and wipe us out, especially if they have any allies.

#askeck Halo theory idea
What if the UNSC had never researched the spartan 2 or mjolnir programs. However one month after first contact with the covenant the UNSC INFINITY and her escort fleet of Autumn class cruisers appear at earth through a wormhole. The ships are fully operational and have manuals detailing how all ship systems, such as shielding and more advanced slipsace, operate and also how to build them for other ships. However it goes not have the spartan 4s. How does this affect the human covenant war? Does humanity win or lose?
win
The Infinity would be used to flee Earth later on as a last ditch resort (like it was originally suppose to). Simply because the Infinity would get heavily outnumbered even if she is powerful. The infinity’s tech would certainly be very helpful in prolonging the war but it wouldn’t be fast enough to completely change the wars outcome. Even when the Covenant attacked Earth it’s not like they lost. The Covenant simply found a more important goal than wiping humans out.

I'd love, love, LOVE to see a non-human main character in a SW movie. At this point, I've seen too many humans fill in main good and bad guy roles. The potential of good and evil are not restricted to humans, we see this in Yoda and Plageus. I would love to see a Twi-lek or Togrutan hero fight against a Kel-dor, or Nautilan villain. They don't need to be human to be relatable, they just have to be put in a relatible position. Replace Luke (radical, I know) with any species and you still get a wonder-lusted (water) farmer who becomes a galactic hero. Replace Poe with a Zabrak, and you still get a tactical genious, hot-shot of a pilot.

It's truly a terrifying thought about how powerful the Infinite Empire would have been after another 25,000 years of dominant while cooperating with other races instead of eating or beating 💀

No they won't, because they're not humans, they're xenos, and they're unclean.
Khải Hoàng they’re physically larger and were more intelligent then humans at the time due to having a lot of education from the Kwa so I’m not sure about that they were disgusting creatures but they definitely were superior to humans in their prime if they weren’t they wouldn’t have overpowered us and enslaved us

5:22 _"...basic, but slow FTL: at least when compared to hyperdrives"_
Is this what the Falcon used to limp to Bespin? Or Amidala's yacht to get to Tatooine? #AskEck
The Falcon used it's backup class 12 hyperdrive to get to Bespin.
The ancient humans who colonized the galaxy used generation ships/sleeper ships. The lore is loose here, some ships took hundreds of years between systems yet humanity still colonized world's very far from their supposed homeworld of Coruscant too (it's lost to history if it really is their homeworld).
Humanity were on hundreds of world before hyperdrive was discovered. Even though they used this terribly slow method of interstellar travel. When it was discovered, only a few species then got ftl and some that did, well, didn't use it (like the Wookiees). So humanity had colonized much of the Star Wars galaxy long before most other species even left their homeworlds.
Basically humans had already colonized much of the Galaxy before the Republic was founded. Most other species started colonizing after humanity gave them hyperdrive and once they joined the Republic.
So, no, backup hyperdrive engines are how the movie ships got to other systems. Not how the ancient humans traveled. Oh, and in some lore, force objects teleporting force sensitives to the Jedi's homeworld also happened, this system had many habitable world's and got hyperdrive when the infinite Empire bumped into them, humanity lead the counterattack against them until they lost the force and retreated to their homeworld only to die their by Knights of the Old Republic series
@@jonathanryan9946 that is because the original sleeper ships were travelling in barely FTL speeds, and during the time that passed from those original and technologically inferior ships were maybe partway to their destination; breakthroughs in hyperspace tech happen. Suddenly the newer ships are so fast that they are able to venture further out than the original sleeper ships, and arrive sometimes before them depending on how far the sleepers journeys were.
