The Nomarians were a race of squat amphibioids native to the Outer Rim planet of Nomaria. They bore a strong resemblance to the Fluggrians of Ploo IV.
Biology and appearance[]
The Nomarians were squat amphibioids distinguished by the four knobby protuberances that jutted from their foreheads. They had green skin and yellow eyes.
Society and culture[]
Nomarians could work for any affiliation and occupation, and could speak in a language which consists of frog-like croaks. They could speak Basic. They also shared their name with the Nomarian thunder shark, a type of non-sentient predatory fish from their homeworld. They were one of the 5 million sentient species (alien races) known to the Empire in the galaxy.
History[]
The Nomarians were the sentient descendants of a non-sentient amphibian species. They evolved on Nomaria, a swamp planet located in the Nomaria system within the Suolriep sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Their homeworld was explored sometime between 15,000 BBY and 8000 BBY, during the Kymoodon Era to the Rianitus Period. It fell into the area of space known as The Slice.
They shared their home sector with the Houks, the Iotrans, the Laboi, the Lythians, the Mantilorrians, the Nerrians, the Samuacs, the Sorderians, and the Tefauans. It became a part of Hutt Space during the Clone Wars. In 25 ABY, their homeworld's population was up to 1 billion. Their homeworld became a part of Darth Krayt's Sith Empire in 137 ABY.
