Background
In the franchise's history it was once the homeworld and capital of the Ancients, and later a world the Goa'uld ruled while posing as gods. Cut off from alien contact for a long time afterward, its people grew into one of the most populous civilisations in the galaxy, and through Stargate Command they hold off attacks by the Goa'uld, the Replicators, the Wraith, the Ori and the Lucian Alliance.
