Ishori

The Ishori were long-time rivals of the Diamala. Their disputes over commerce and resource-sharing were a common source of tension in their part of the Core Worlds. In 19 ABY, the Ishori refused to allow armed Diamalan vessels into their ports. An attempt by the Iphigini to resolve the dispute (with Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Luke Skywalker as mediators) was unsuccessful. Their dispute soon became a flashpoint in a larger dispute in the New Republic over the Caamasi Document. While the Diamala took a "forgive and forget" approach, Ishori Senator Ghic Dx'ono was one of the leading voices in favor of making the Bothans pay for their complicity in the destruction of Caamas.

Psychologically, Ishori had what some called a "fight or think" response. They found it difficult to discuss any complicated issue without becoming emotional and agitated.
