History
The Krogan were a reptilian species native to the planet Tuchanka where their society was noted for being rich in its cultural, architectural and artistic accomplishments. When their civilization reached an industrial age, their civilization suffered from a large population explosion a their birth rate grew despite the harsh nature of their home plant. Their development of technology made the challenges on Turchanka easier leading to them engaging in warfare with one another over dwindling resources. Around four thousand years ago, the krogan went through their nuclear age with battles being waged over small regions of land capable of sustaining life with this escalating into full global warfare. The height of this war saw weapons of mass destruction being deployed that turned Tuchanka into a radioactive wasteland and turning their society back into primitive warring clans that struggled to survive the nuclear winter that they had created on their homeworld.
Overview
