So please, read and look at the text and pics I have personally made for you and everyone else out there. I would like to thank Anubis 10545 and Reignfire for giving me some ideas. Thank you. Please enjoy!!! north america

The Stargate
Founded by: Alterans/Ancients

Description: The Stargates, also called the Astria Porta in Ancient and the Chappa'ai in Goa'uld, are a series of devices, built by the Ancients, that can create artificial Wormholes between distant worlds. The Stargates are often considered to be the Ancients' greatest creation, and so the Ancients are often called the Gate Builders. The original Stargate design was invented by an Alteran named Amelius, from an idea he formulated the night before the Alterans left their home galaxy for the Milky-Way. It is unknown if he actually built the first of the Stargate Network. (Stargate: The Ark of Truth) They are among the oldest examples of Ancient technology found in the Milky-Way galaxy, the Stargate found in Antarctica on Earth has been estimated to be over 50 million years old.

Earth
Founded by: Alterans/Ancients

Description:

Earth (Terra in Ancient, Midgard to the Humans settled by the Asgard, Tau'ri in Goa'uld), and designated P2X-3YZ by the Tau'ri, is the home planet for the SG teams and around eight billion Humans. Stargate Command is located in Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado, United States of America. Earth was among the first planets that the Ancients colonized when they left their home galaxy. Some five million years ago, the Ancients were forced to leave in Atlantis for Pegasus due to a plague. They eventually returned after the war with the Wraith. (SG1: "Lost City, Part 2", "Avalon") (ATL: "Rising") Shortly afterwards, the Goa'uld System Lord Ra discovered Earth, and took it for his own, ruling for 5,000 years. An alternate SG-1 travelled back in time and helped the ancient humans rebel against Ra, who abandoned Earth. (Stargate) (SG1: "Children of the Gods", "Moebius, Part 1", "Moebius, Part 2") Thanks to the rediscovery of the Stargate, the Tau'ri come to find out that Humans live on other planets in addition to Earth, each with their own unique cultures. As the Stargate program progresses, the term Tau'ri eventually came to be used to specifically identify humans from Earth.

The Four Great Races
Description:

The Alliance of Four Great Races was an intergalactic alliance composed of the most advanced races known at that time: the Ancients, the Asgard, the Furlings, and the Nox. They would periodically meet to discuss matters of mutual concern and importance. To ensure universal communication, they created a "universal language" composed of representations of the elements. The Alliance appears to have dissolved after the last remaining Ancients ascended, though it is unknown if the other three races still interacted with each other on some level after their passing. With the extinction of the Asgard, only the Nox and possibly the Furlings remain of the Alliance. However, with their dying breath the Asgard proclaimed the Tau'ri as the Fifth Race of the Great Alliance. (SG1: "The Torment of Tantalus", "The Fifth Race", "Unending")

Atlantis/Tauri
Atlantis/Taur'i

''Known as the 5th race'

6-8 ships, Daedluas, Promethesus, Apollo, Odyessy, Phoenix, Korvel, Aurora

Atlantis Defences

Home World: Earth, Atlantis

Allies: Asgard, Ferlings, Genii, Athosians, Nox, Unas, Ancients, Jafa, Tokra

Enemies: Wraith, Replicators(destroyed), Goul'uld(destroyed), Ori(destroyed).

Description: Tau'ri is the term used by the inhabitants of the Milky Way to refer to Earth and human beings from Earth. The word means "first ones" or "those from the first world" in Goa'uld in the sense that human life began on Earth. While it originally applied to all human beings in the Milky Way, the term has come to apply specifically to the humans who currently live on Earth as the Stargate Program progressed. The Tau'ri have become known as the "Atlanteans" by the races of the Pegasus Galaxy due to their habitation of the city of Atlantis, and Earth has also been referred to as "Midgard" by the peoples of planets under the protection of the Asgard. Most of the time, the majority of protagonists in the fight against galactic oppressors are of the Tau'ri, fighting a multi-front war against several other major races. When the Asgard race was close to extinction, they declared the Tau'ri as the "Fifth Race", an allusion to the once-powerful but now-defunt Alliance of Four Great Races. (SG1: "Children of the Gods", "Thor's Hammer", "Red Sky", "Unending")

Atlantis, also called the Lost City of the Ancients and the City of the Ancestors, Atlantus in Ancient, is a city-ship built by the Ancients several million years ago, and has approximately the same internal space as found in Manhattan. The Ancients left our galaxy several million years ago for the Pegasus galaxy, taking Atlantis with them, and settled on a planet they named Lantea. Millions of years later, after the Lanteans — the name the Ancients came to be known by — submerged the city to protect it from their enemies, the Wraith, and returned to Earth through the Stargate. Their story, over time, inspired the Tau'ri myth of Atlantis.

Asgard
Asgard:

40-60 ships

Home World: Audarera

Allies: Taur'i/Atlantis, Ancients, Ferlings, Nox, etc.

Enimeis: Replicator's, Goul'uld

Describtion: Dependent on neutronium, the Asgard possess a level of technology vastly superior to that of Goa'uld and many other races throughout the universe. Indeed, the only races with technology on the same level of the Asgard are the Lanteans, the Ori, and possibly the Nox and Furlings, and only the most recent Ancient technology surpasses them. Their ships are capable of traversing thousands of light years in minutes, and their shields can take multiple hits from Ori motherships while remaining undamaged, which had never been done before. Shortly before their extinction, the Asgard developed energy weapons capable of, with repeated strikes, defeating the shields of Ori motherships, which had previously proved impervious to everything except the unstable vortex of the Ori's own Supergate. They have also mastered advanced transportation and holographic technology.



Genii
Genii:

Home World: Gerdran

Allies: Atlantis

Enimies: Wraith

Description:As most planets and human civilizations in the Pegasus Galaxy were subject to regular cullings by the Wraith, the Genii have used extreme measures to defend their society. As their technology was relatively advanced, at least compared to most other civilizations in the Pegasus Galaxy, they realized the Wraith would eventually come to wipe them out, as they do to most species that have reached a level of technology that could potentially threaten Wraith dominance. (ATL: "Underground". Genii farmersInstead of reverting to a primitive level of technology, like the Athosians had done, they decided to hide their advanced technology. In their contact with other peoples, they posed as simple, Amish-equivalent farmers. However, most of their society was hidden in huge underground city-sized bunkers. Entrance to these bunkers was provided through several hatches located in Genii structures. Typical trespassers who discovered these bunkers were usually swiftly dealt with. Still, they have revealed their true identity to some. (ATL: "Rising", "Underground", "The Storm")



Alterans/Ancients
Alternas(Ancients):

30-40 ships (lost 36 ships to Wraith)

Home World: Lantea

Allies: Nox, Asgard, Ferlings

Enemies: Wraith, Replicators

Description:

The Ancients, also known as the Gate Builders or Anqueetas in their language, were those Alterans who left their home galaxy for the Milky Way galaxy and seeded it with life. They are one of the most advanced races known to have existed, having evolved for millions of years prior to the present day and reaching their level of technology long before humanity evolved on Earth. They are best known as the builders of the Stargates and Atlantis. They now reside on a higher plane of existence.



Ori
Ori:

10-18 ships

Home World: Unknown

Allies: none

Enemies: Taur'i/Atlantis, Asgard, Jafa, Tokra, Ancients

Description:

The Ori first lived together with the Ancients as one human society in a distant galaxy as the Alterans. At some point, a split occurred among the Alterans. The Ancients began to believe more in science, while the Ori became more religious. The division became so great that the Ori tried to wipe the Ancients out. To avoid a war, the Ancients departed their home galaxy for the Milky Way. Even after they left, the Ancients and the Ori remained enemies. Daniel Jackson believes that the Ori were responsible for the plague that the Ancients suffered from in the Milky Way, which led them to leave for the Pegasus galaxy in Atlantis. They both eventually ascended and the Ori passed on a religion called "Origin" to the next evolution of humans they created, using their ascension and knowledge of the universe as justification for praise and worship. (SG1: "Avalon", "Origin", "The Powers that Be")



Replicators/Asurans
Replicators/Asurans:

30-32 ships

Home World: Asura

Allies: none

Enemmies: Earth/Atlantis, Asgard, Ancients, Genii, Wraith

Description:

During the war with the Wraith, the Ancients sought to create a weapon which would attack Wraith DNA. Turning to nanite technology, the Ancients built nanites which would allow for organic assimilation and replication, encoded with an aggression code that surpassed even that of the Wraith. Without warning, the nanites suddenly began replicating and interlocking, taking the most advanced form they knew—Ancients. Even in this form, the aggression codes remained. Fueled by a rage they could not understand, the machines begged the Ancients to remove the aggression programming, but the Ancients refused, for they had created base codes that prevented the Asurans from harming them, and they were desperate to find a weapon to destroy the Wraith. When they concluded that the Asurans would not be the weapon they sought, the Ancient Council sent a fleet of Aurora-class warships to Asuras, wiping out the laboratory and the nanites, and deleted all references to the project from their database, save for Asuras' Stargate address. However, some of the nanites survived, and began to replicate again which resulted in the Second Birth. (ATL: "Progeny"). After the Ancients lost the war and returned to the Milky Way galaxy the Asurans began to attack the Wraith. The Wraith created a shut down code that deactivated their directive to attack them. This resulted in them returning to their homeworld where they entered the Second Birth and restricted themselves to that planet. (ATL: "Reunion")



Wraith
About 60 ships

Home World: None

Allies: none

Enemies: Atlantis/Taur'i, Replicators, Alterans/Ancients, maybe Asgard

Description:

The Wraith are a vampirous, hive-based species that harvest on the 'life-force' of other beings for nourishment through suckers on their palms. Countless worlds in the Pegasus Galaxy live in constant fear of the Wraith, who return periodically to cull their human herds. Wraith ships are constructed of a pathogen that are a biological polymer similar to a Polysaccharides but contains organo-metallic compounds. It resembles an insects or crustaceans shell in the sense that it starts out soft and pliable, then it becomes tough and leathery and eventual hardens to become extremely dense and resistant to heat, pressure and even radiation (but this fact is contradicted because a Wraith ship cannot stay in hyperspace long because of the effect of the radiation in hyperspace). The polymer uses the resources around it to grow into what ever ship, or outpost it is designed to become. (ATL: "The Siege, Part 1", "The Seed")



Goul'uld
30-45 ships

Home World: Chulak

Allies: Jafa

Enemies: Taur'i, Asgard, Jafa, Tokra, Ori, Replicators

Description:

The Goa'uld are a race of parasitic beings that take over hosts. Several species can serve as hosts, including humans and Unas. They originated on the planet designated P3X-888. They are also extremely egomaniacal due to their genetic memory and the sarcophagus technology. Goa'uld means "God" in the Goa'uld language. Races which will not serve them are completely destroyed without compromise. (SG1: "Children of the Gods", "Thor's Hammer", "The First Ones")



Travellers
7 ships

Home World: None

Allies: Atlantis/Taur'i

Enemies: Wraith, Replicators

Description:

The Travelers are a technologically advanced race of humans in the Pegasus galaxy who have escaped being culled by the Wraith by hiding aboard generational ships which travel throughout the Pegasus galaxy. Although once able to build new ships as needed, long term space travel has deprived them of the resources necessary to construct new vessels. Overpopulation and heavy amounts of "jerry rigging" are prevalent. Despite the level of desperation faced by the Travelers, they ally with the Atlantis Expedition in order to destroy the Replicators. With the help of the Atlantis Expedition the Travelers newest ship, a Lantean Aurora-class warship, is made ready to fight. One of their ships was lost in the battle for the Asuran homeworld.
