(Sorry I didn't make this earlier, I was kind of bored.)
The Ghangahuli live on a world that is closer to their home-star than is considered healthy, and is therefore mostly a desert world. The large amount of iron in the sands tint the planet red, and the surprisingly large amount of carbon found in the rocks of the planet made most, if not all of them, a shade of black. Steel, which is iron with 2% more carbon, is very easy to produce for those reasons. Fortunately for every other race in the galaxy, the natural Ghangahuli response to almost every offense is "KILL!", and with an abundance of steel... things got VERY nasty very quickly. This set their technological development back as they commited senseless acts of violence to eachother, and the planet entered a "dark age".
Later on, after they realized that there was a possibility that life existed on other worlds, they set aside their differences and prospered from a brief golden age before the agony of waiting for the invention of space flight caused them to reenter a dark age. After a while of this madness, one nation emerged victorious among the smoking, radioactive remains of every other nation and has now begun exploring space.
