Known for their militaristic and disciplined culture, the turians (known as the Tikk'ler Ci'lekker by the Second Human Empire) are on of the Citadel Council member species. They gained their council seat after defeating the hostile krogans for the council during the Krogan Rebellions. The turians then filled the peacekeeping niche left by the once-cooperative Krogans, and eventually gained a Council seat in recognition of their efforts. Originally from the planet Palaven, turians are best known for their military role, particularly their contributions of soldiers and starships to the Citadel Fleet. They are respected for their public service ethic—it was the turians who first proposed creating C-Sec—but are sometimes seen as imperialist or rigid by other races. They joined the Citadel Alliance after their homeworld was conquered by first the Reapers, then the Combines and other Axis forces, they currently serve the Alliance of Nations though their membership for the Citadel Alliance
