They're a peaceful intelligent race that's very empathetic. That's why when they rip your arms off after beating them at Holo chess, they feel really bad about it.
This is brilliant. So nice and peaceful narration, easy-to-read graphics, and informational content. This has helped me a lot with my wookiee tabletop character ^^
Apart from the obvious differences, wookie society reminds me of my own people, Māori. Tribal warriors living in balance and harmony with nature. Fierce reputation, tribal/family loyalty, honor systems, even exploitation by other races etc.
If you don't mind me asking; could you teach me a thing or two about your people? I'm just curios (and want to know more about the humans that're left out of the US classes, as in to say anyone that that either isn't us or someone we've clobbered in the past), that's all.
@@tommyfox854 sure! We greet eachother formally by pressing our noses together in what's called a hongi (hoh-ngee) - it symbolizes the breath of life given to the first woman, who was shaped from the earth. We traditionally cook our food using hot river rocks in the ground in pits or in natural hot springs. We traditionally have facial tattoos called ta moko (tah-moh-kor) which were heavily supressed post colonization but are now making a big come back as is our language which was also nearly lost... actually nearly our whole culture was lost but is now beginning to thrive again. 😊😊
@@comylare6879 fascinating, thanks for sharing Comy. =) I found the hongi cute (sorry if that was rude), the cooking on hot springs rocks sounds wonderful (and make the meal tastier than what we eat here in the USA) and the tamoko seems like a fun thing to have. And I know I can't speak on behave of every white person on the planet but for those I can; I am *SO* sorry our ancestors had desiccated your people and way of life countless moons ago. Um, would it be alright if you can tell me a bit more? I know this is a sudden tone change but-, I don't know how to defend that.
@@tommyfox854 Haha you may get away with calling the hongi cute around some Māori but others might take offence and you'll probably find even more take offence as reffering to tā moko as something fun to have. Family and spirituality underpin nearly everything in Māori culture and tā moko are tapu (tah-poo) - sacred. They tell the story of who we are and where we came from. They were my ancestors to. Pretty directly actually as I'm half British actually though I've never been to Britain or really identify with the culture to much - though I have a soft spot for medieval history. Sure - going off tā moko we use whakapapa (fah-kah-pah-pah) - genealogy to explain who we are and our place in the world. For lots of us we know our ancestors going back hundreds and hundreds of years. Some of us - like me have whakapapa that started with a God or other deity like the Patupaiarehe (pah-too-pie-ah-reh-heh don't forget to roll the r) which are mythical beings, or not depending on what you believe, that can transform into mist. The tribes that whakapapa to them refer to themselves as Children of the Mist. The God I whakapapa to is called Pūhaorangi (poo-how-rah-ngi) who had a child with a human, my ancestor, and was the God of celestial knowledge. And keeping on with the myth and legends - one of most famous mythological characters, Maui (mao-ee) who I shit you not I also whakapapa to, was sort of like a good natured Loki and eventually died after trying to crawl up the Goddess of Deaths vagina after transforming into a worm after she realized and crushed him to death with her vagina which also had teeth. We have no hell, only an afterlife and the Goddess of Death takes especially good care of children. She's nice unless your trying to crawl up her vagina to steal immortality which is what Maui was after.
@@comylare6879 Oh, I didn't know it was rude, I'm sorry; and sorry for thinking the tamoko was something fun to have. I can't think of anything else to say (mostly because I woke up at 5:30 in the morning, US east Atlantic cost time and barely awake) but I'll continue talking to you when I can. And, again, thanks for telling me some of your peoples' culture.

Wookies, around Christmas time, on around the 40th anniversary of the Star Wars Holiday Special. Maybe you should also do a video on the Holiday Special as well if you have time after the Daleks.
There are a few minor inaccuracies but not by the fault of the content creator. They are only briefly mentioned. One: they are not native to Kashykk they are said to be a transplant from elsewhere. Two: In other sources, they are "possibly" a creation of the Rakata and their hideous genetic experiments. They did them due to their loss of connection to the force and were creating other creatures to test their connection. Them and the Infinite Empire died out before they could solve the mystery. The Wookies actually have a great deal of culture and sophistication and even have a senator that led from Coruscant and could speak basic nearly fluent. As for Chewbacca, he didn't care to speak basic as Han knew his language and translators easily could "get the point across".
I don’t know the origin, but Wookiees and Trandoshans have an intense hatred of one another. It doesn’t help that Trandoshans are pretty brutal toward Wookiees. One Trandoshan was so horrific toward Wookiees that even his fellows were creeped out by him.
I believe the crashed ship you spoke of was refered to in legends as a Rakkatan ship rife in the dark side of the force that's why the Wookies avoid it
We need a movie about wookie mad claws who destroy the first order before ray can complete her non training and no that Mary sue will not be making an untimely appearance...

I LOVE THESE. Never stop doing cultral index's, man. Omg good stuff. 😁
Chewbacca, he lived through three generations of Skywalkers f*cking up, usually the galaxy, for everybody else
And in both Legends and Current Canon! XD

Magnificent beings, the Wookiees.
Yay! Proper Star Wars! On that note I would love to see a Cultural Index on the Yuuzhan Vong.
Stabber OpSig you were good until you said yuuzhan vong lol
@@chrismontgomery4152 not a fan either- but they ARE interesting.
Changlings would be a good video to do next.Loved this one keep it up.
Great analysis of Chewies’ people.
Wookies... the most underrated species in Star Wars outside of Chewbacca.
One of the most tragic species. I hope after the sequels they finally found peace.
Who hasn't wanted to have a Wookiee backing you up? Nobody, that's who.
Wookiees are pertty cool.

Does the first city sound like ourfucker to anyone else, or just to me?
Please do the Zentradi from SDF Macross.
Right off the bat, very tall cuddly teddy bears.
Awesome breakdown! Been missing the cultural indexes, please make more!
Wookiees seem like very nice and friendly people.
There are some straight up horrifying dark side monsters that live on the forest floor, though.
predators what the heck kind of an animal would take on a wookiee
... have you even seen some of the critters you fight in fallen order?
Yes! Dalek cultural index! Just in time for their returning episode.
Their Homeworld is like "Catachan" from Warhammer 40k. Dense, deadly Wild and plantlife.
And should never be the main focus a certain holiday special
Yes, the Daleks are coming!
By Space By space! The Daleks are coming By Space By Space!
Damn, I bet they have some _bad_ bitches in "Thikkiiana."
Cool, I'd be game to share a bottle of brandy with Chewie and Han. Shit would be worth getting tangled up in bounty hunters, gangsters, blasters, and hokey religions
I love that you put in the porgs with the wookies food ! Lol fantastic
What about the Wookiee craft like the airspeeders and catamarans in the prequels
You broke my Wookiee!
My first roleplaying character was a Wokkiee 😁
Scars are bad ass war ornaments
Yavin is a Gas Giant. You're thinking of it's fourth moon, Yavin 4. Very accurate video though, so thank you.
Wookies, around Christmas time, on around the 40th anniversary of the Star Wars Holiday Special. Maybe you should also do a video on the Holiday Special as well if you have time after the Daleks.
Doing the Cybermen cultural index from Doctor Who would be good one to add.
Pretty strong jungle beasts
I hope he mentions their life day celebration.

One of your better video. Keep up your good work.
Could you do one on the imperium of man?
I wonder what would happen if the wookies and Klingons met
wookiees are awesome
Are they primate? Ursan? Cannid?
Damn wookies like getting trashed on the good stuff

Hope you all had a great Life Day!
Who do you think would win in a drinking competition a Klingon or a Wookie
Klingon.
Wookiee no doubt.
Three types of spider? Where from snip snip, star fauna spider, and first son of bear paw and her mother. I am a lizard spider
wookie prime
Wookies are also quite frisky, "I'd rather kiss a Wookie" wasn't a random phrase.… th-cam.com/video/mH0ZOVT2st8/w-d-xo.html
Wookie nookie
Much about wookies should earn the respect of the Mandalorians
i like chewy in berserk mode
I believe the crashed ship you spoke of was refered to in legends as a Rakkatan ship rife in the dark side of the force that's why the Wookies avoid it
Does Chewbacca have mammal male organs
bless you for trying
I would suggest after you do the next species do the trandoshans the nemesis I guess you could call them of the Wookies
We need a movie about wookie mad claws who destroy the first order before ray can complete her non training and no that Mary sue will not be making an untimely appearance...
It's also important to note that Wookies DON'T shake hands😁
But what about the droid attack on the wookiees?
>wood evolved throughout the Galaxy
No mention of Life Day? Disappointing.

ANY alien race from The Orville would he greatly appreciated.
I DID IT ALL FOR THE WOOKIES!!
This channel is detailed as🤬
Awww...
Why don't we see female Wookies?
Awesome video:D If you are interested in Star Wars, you may also like our "Solo: A Star Wars Story" TRAILER PARODY!
Tell them about double lighters touching wieners
Technically they're Ursiniods as the bear side of their nature is very pronounced despite the fact that it is clearly a human in the costume.
Do crop circles instead like your ancestors
I did it all with a Wookie!
I never though of it before now but hunting Wookies and keeping the pelts sounds pretty good to me
Why don't they wear clothes they're not pets so they should wear clothes and where are those sex organs are they internal
That was a terrible Wookie voice.
