Intent and Reasoning: Koboth was sought after for major trade agreements by two whole races, which were aggressive and highly technological. Koboth didn't have much more in the way of valuables aside from common planet ores. The Hiitian sought fortunes, and the Trianii were highly cultural and technological. Thus, discovering a valuable material, they could create advanced weapons or systems, giving a large interest in Koboth. Otherwise, there isn't much in securing trade agreements.

Affiliation: Alliance to Restore the Republic (Assisted during the Mavvan Conflict)
Major Locations:
*Kuurok Peninsula - The Kuurok Peninsula was the most fairly known region on Koboth, considering the Kobok separated themselves through regions, and even waged wars against each other. The Koboks from this region were all dark-colored, mostly dark green. It also holds their largest city.
*The Dead Islands - The islands in the southern hemisphere of the planet were small and spread out, holding rocky mountains and terrain. Since Koboth Prime hit this region the most, the islands are completely dead of all nutrients, and they are also within the hotter temperature of the world. They still hold Koboks who hold demographic territories.
Culture: Koboks were, at one time, widely known for their aggression and violence, waging war with themselves much stronger than typical natives. They separated themselves from each other based on region, or peninsula, mostly from their demographics or chitin colors. Having always waged war, they were strong and calculated mercenaries, regarded them as crafty killing machines. Despite this, they were sensible enough to create a united government for their planet and their peoples, furthering galactic progression and spread of their culture and species. They are moderately cultured in the way they still show traditional, or old-style, military uniforms, aside from their armor, which is similar to the rest of the galaxy.
Technology: While not all of their technology is galactic standard, they were able to mass-produce weapons for war, and even after the Mavvan Conflict, they were even more prepared for war with gear, supplies, tactics, etc.
History: Before Major CHAOS Events
When the Gulag Virus arrived to the planet Koboth, it tore down everything they originally had. Or, more so, they tore it down themselves. With Koboks falling ill to the virus, they were, unfortunately, looked at of each other in territorial style. With the Kobok population falling, every Region was opening itself to themselves as potential landgrabs by other regions. Every Region had to be combat ready, for war among themselves, or outside conflicts. An empty Region was a risk, and the wars started up again. This war was much deadlier than any civil war among the Koboks before, since now they had the weapons and power to wage even harsher war, it just wasn't expected for their population to dwindle and old wounds coming back for blood. After the conflicts subsided due to increasing deaths from war and the virus, they came to another truce, seeing that any further war would destroy their species. It was a calm, and almost silent death for the Koboks in the galaxy.
After the silence, and after what seemed a generation or two, the Koboks had restabilized and was even to reform their Union, their government. Although it wasn't enough to fill the void of the massive gap their species had taken in the galaxy, they were able to breathe life back into their planet. There wasn't much, if any, spacefaring during the 400 year darkness, as they rebuilt and stablized their economy and military.
During the Netherworld Event, news had traveled to Kobok about the massive wars and devastation of planets and sentient bodies. Even Koboth, after awhile, started feeling the effects of the Force and its chaos rippling through the galaxy. Mountains fell, the seas crashed and receded, earthquakes trembled the cities. The Kobothi came together in this time of destruction, whether it was heading off into the galaxy to support the rise and fall of factions and governments, or to pull through for each other and save their homes and cities. But just as everything seemed to calm down, it would not end as peacefully as the Gulag Virus. Overnight, the already severely dwindled Kobok species dwindled to a number never before seen or known in any records. The Koboks became a displaced species as Koboks disappeared without cause, forcing them to bunker down to try and save what they had left and become hostile to any and all who came near. The Koboks had lost everything but the ground under their feet, and they would lose no more.
