Culture:
That isn't to say they don't see the value in fighting dangerous foes, their ideals are more pro soldiers and army but anti war and using that army. They'd rather see life flourish and find a way to balance itself out. They share a deep connection to their planet and nature communing with it and as the Atrisian's built temples working with them to make the work better as beasts of burden with some of them and offering lessons on the world itself.
Technology level: The galactic standard with an emphasis on culture and creating ornate jewelry, decorative armor and weapons. Ship building is not their strong suit or a major need compared to working to better work on planetary relations.
General behavior: In large groups they share a communal and family feeling. Always willing to help each other and trading services over valuables or credits. Their hard works being traded to the Atrisian's of Shri-Tal for other exotic items that can benefit the group and community. Their domestication of the native Jun-La from long ago has carried over and they teach others to control the creatures. With strangers to the world they display a serene and friendly demeanor being genuine in their wanting to be friendly and help out ones who are lost or hurt but are willing to fight back if hostile intent is brought to their planet. When they are working in trades they can be shrewd but won't try and rip someone off never asking for greater amounts then a person can pay or give up, even giving charity to them and willing to part with things for free when they have a great deal of excess.
History:
The History of the Rakesh before the Taung sisterhood brought people through the great gate is one steeped in mystery mostly because the ruins of their ancestors have been destroyed or heavily damaged, the one moon being overrun by infected monsters who are dangerous. They know their history somewhat that they built the temples to honor their old gods who came from the sky and wiped out sections of life that became to advanced. It was why they remained largely primitive until the hypergate opened.
Then the warriors of shadow came with the atrisian slaves, bringing a great deal of new problems and incidents. They couldn't fight the natives easily, the Rakesh knowing their world better then anyone but they could bargain with them. They could enslaves some of them and tempt others to serve with them and that worked in ways. The strongest worked with the slaves in the fields to help them work the land and teach them the dangers or the benefits.
Others worked with them to develop their religion and secretly to overthrow the oppressors. Their work in handling the situation coming as they slowly lasted while the sisterhood failed and died off. Eventully the Atrisians forming a strong friendship with them and working the government to honor their request of being friends and sharing the world but they wouldn't be taking over. The Rakesh going back to their homes and working the lands of Shri-Tal.
That was what led to the colonization of the moon and making it into a major metropolis center, making one large city and smaller towns across the planet. To leave the land for the Rakesh to live and work on for their time, sharing the world, sharing their home. The old ruins and their purpose forgotten as the ones from the sky didn't return until the Empire came. The Rakesh not resisting when they were imprisoned being made to work the fields for another's benefit. They did it to not endanger their friends and the rest of the work tending to the biodomes.
As time went on and the empire was gone they returned to a normal life enjoying themselves and working the land and new domes providing the stuff they could make there that off worlders said was very valuable. If it could boost the economy of the world they would gladly help and work with that. This was a great place to work on things and get it all setup as needed. Then the plague came and their population was hit hard, same as the rest of the galaxy. Their need to recover and work to prevent the plague from spreading helped them in the long rum.
The population hasn't recovered, not really to what it once was but with work they have gotten some of the old farms and orchards running. Slowly recovering and helping the rest of their planet make it a great place that the Silver jedi coming was welcome. They hold no ill will to the silver jedi for policing the world and have even shred their knowledge with them while some of the older temples and locations have been rediscovered leading to a renewal of the Rakesh spirits and drive to cultivate the world.
