	Five thousand years before the formation of the Galactic Republic, Rakatan civilization was at its peak after the decline of the Celestials. Through the use of dark side fueled technologies created a powerful Force powered hyperdrive, the Builders had formed the Infinite Empire which dominated known space for thousands of years. However, their hyperdrives could only visit worlds possessing strong force signatures, making their empire have few worlds and much space between each. This allowed for numerous other civilizations to flourish.Many of the most prominent worlds of the Empire were included in this empire, such as, [[Corellia]], [[Honoghr]], [[Generis]], [[Hijarna]], [[Xo]], and [[Dantooine]] falling under their dominion. This haphazard nature of their empire meant that loose confederacies of other civilizations managed to develop in the spaces between Rakatan worlds through use of dangerous as well as unpredictable hyperdrive technology.

	During their period of expansion, the Rakata encountered the Sith species of Korriban. At first, the Rakata were wary and they pretended to ally themselves with the warlord Adas, going so far as to show him how to construct the pyramidal Sith holocron. In time, however, Adas learned that the invaders were bent on conquest. When the two species went to war, he managed to lead the Sith to victory and drive the Rakata from Korriban, but at the expense of his life.

	After generations of galactic supremacy, the Infinite Empire began to fracture. Constant tensions between internal factions suddenly erupted into a devastating civil war caused by the Star Forge's corrupting influence. Already weakened by warfare, the Builders were suddenly struck by a deadly plague that spread rapidly through their ranks. Later, it would be theorized that the disease was created by a slave species because it only infected the Builders themselves. The virulent plague nearly exterminated the Rakata and brought the Infinite Empire to its knees, yet the worst was yet to come.

-The Rakatan are a humanoid race with a large almost cone shaped head, their eyes are placed on
+The Rakata (also known as the Builders) were a humanoid species with distinctive amphibian features. They were a scientifically advanced race that developed early in galactic history, even developing some early hyperspace driver technology. Long term use of the dark side of the Force corrupted their society and turned them into a race of merciless warriors. The Rakata used their potent Force-powered technologies to conquer and enslave every other species they came across throughout their known galaxy. During the reign of their Infinite Empire, they were characterized by their cruelty, savagery, and arrogance. They were known to strip entire planets of their resources, terraform worlds to fit their own shifting needs, kill entire slave workforces, and to eat and defile the bodies of slain enemies. <br />

+The Rakata's rise to power was fueled by a range of advanced devices that married the Force to high technology. The Builders were rumored to have been one of the first species to develop energy shields and were credited with the invention of the earliest form of the interstellar hyperdrive. The Rakatan drive, however, was a severely limited device due to the fact that it relied on the Force itself to function. It was only capable of perceiving and traveling to worlds with a significant Force signature (i.e. a high degree of native life). As such, the number of worlds under the Rakata's thumb was limited, though diverse and far flung.

			The Rakatan are a humanoid race with a large almost cone shaped head, their eyes are placed on
			short stalks on the sides of their head granting them an exceptionally wide field of vision. They retain vestigial claws that they do not use in combat. They are tall and thin, but contain strong wiry muscles. As a race they are very intelligent and nimble, but due to their odd look and abrasive nature, other races find them difficult to get along with. The cruel Rakatan fell to the Dark side and enslaved all the races they encountered.
