Mandalore the First

Mandalore the First was a warrior who conquered the planet Mandalore. He became the first leader of the Mandalorian clans after he exterminated the Mythosaurs.

He and his followers were originally Taungs from Coruscant who had settled on Roon, and both the species and the planet that they conquered would be renamed after Mandalore himself. According to legend, he formed the Mandalorian Crusaders on Mandalore around some time after 24,000 BBY and before 7,000 BBY
