Menthar

The Methar are a species native to the planet Menthar.

Their species had an expansionist period at one point, colonizing Qural, Paloden and Selop III. However, because of colonization, the population on their homeworld drastically decreased. Because of this, they imposed strict immigration limts on their colonies, preventing many from leaving their system. This led to massive overpopulation and a massive illegal exodus out of their system to their colonies and Terran Federation space.
