Karrie
Princess of Baalia and Senator to the Galactic Sen
Many a person, as well as those of the Royal Family, can trace their lineage directly back to either the Jemhau or to the Kymni or to both. The Jemhau and the Kymni lived on Baalia for many millennia and are the Ancestors of those who now call Baalia home. It is not known which of the two are responsible for the bringing of the religion of Woecism to the Baalian people.
For many a millennia, Baalia was a peaceful world. That was until the Dark Times. A time of Civil War and strife, when chaos ruled the planet. Origins of the Dark Times have been somewhat shrouded by the passage of time, yet one theory remains prevalent.
Human life was said to have come to Baalia, some 60,000 years BBY and the Jemhau and Kymni are said to have appeared around 15,000 years after.
The then Rulers of Baalia, members of prominent families from all seven continents, could or would not agree upon how their world would or should be ruled and by who. Each prominent family thought they were the ones destined to rule. This most believe was the onset of the Dark Times. Then at the height of the Dark Times came a woman, Biala, and a man, Rohnhar, where they were from has also been lost to the sands of time. Together they brought peace to the warring factions of Baalia, uniting the planet.
This peace has lasted to the present day.
The people of Baalia have for the most of their history, kept themselves removed from Major Galactic Affairs. It was the wish of the Ruling Counsel, the Royal Families to strengthen Baalia before taking a more active role in Galactic Affairs.
There have been events which have affected the galaxy as a whole, the time of the Gulag Virus is one such time. There was no known cure and like many other planets, Baalia closed its spaceports to interstellar travel, in the hope that they could prevent the deadly virus from coming to their world. Another was the Rapture, as with other worlds across the Galaxy, people disappeared from Baalia, never to be seen again.
Over the millinnia, the people of Baalia have tended to shy away from Galactic Affairs. They are not isolationists by any meaning of the word, they only want to get the affairs of their world under control as best they can before venturing out into the affairs of the Galactic Republic and others. Only recently have Baalians felt strong enough as a people to venture forth from Baalia and meet peoples from throughout the Galactic Republic and beyond.
