Society and culture[]
Jminians could work for any affiliation and occupation, and could speak their own native language. They could also speak Basic.
History[]
The Jminians were the sentient descendants of a non-sentient insectoid species. They evolved on Jmin, a jungle planet located in the Jmin system within the Masla sector of the Mid Rim. Their homeworld was explored sometime between 1000 BBY and 25 BBY, during the widespread settlement and opening of Deep Core. They shared their home sector with the Nilgarians. It became a part of Republic Space during the Clone Wars. In 25 ABY, their homeworld's population was up to 500,000, the same year the Yuuzhan Vong invaded their home galaxy. Their homeworld became a part of Darth Krayt's Sith Empire in 137 ABY.
