The Alanciari were the Keshiri inhabitants of the continent of Alanciar on the planet Kesh. After being visited by the Keshiri woman Adari Vaal and warned of the Human Sith who had established their rule over another continent, Keshtah Minor, the Alanciari developed into a highly-disciplined and industrialized society. They also developed a strong defense force which was augmented by a centralized network of semaphore signal stations and Force-sensitive thoughtcriers. In addition, the Alanciari were raised from childhood to loathe the Sith through various forms of media including the Keshtah Chronicles , a popular history textbook, and Observance Day plays, which were held every ten years to commemorate Adari Vaal's legacy.
