Urshiib

Urshiib are the only sapient species to have evolved on the planet Aseturshikunno in the Taurinkokunno system. As of the most recent Imperial Census (356B0), there were 281,796,238,909 Urshiib, of which 110,001,238,098 (or 39%) lived in the Aseturshi High Federation and 29,571,449,126 (or 10%) on Aseturshikunno. There are also an unknown number of Urshiib who live outside of the Imperium, with estimates ranging from a few billion all the way to 60 billion. The term “Urshiib,” which is used both by the Urshiib themselves and the wider galactic community, is a combination of the word "Urshi," meaning cave, and a shortening of the word "Iban," meaning children. Thus, "Urshiib" translates as "Cave Children" or "Children of the Caves." The aforementioned caves are a vast system of caverns that are spread throughout their homeworld and are where Urshiib civilization first began.
