Alderaanian

Canon Legends version → Linked from 1,055 articles

Alderaanians were a cultural group of humans native to the planet Alderaan. Known for their pacifistic values and devotion to the arts, prominent individuals included Viceroy Bail Prestor Organa and his wife, Queen Breha Organa, who were the adoptive parents of Princess Leia Organa. They were driven to the brink of extinction by the destruction of their homeworld by the Galactic Empire via the original Death Star in 1 BBY, with only a few scattered remnants across the galaxy being all that remained of the pacifistic people.
