History

 * For more details, see Garmillas (species) and Great Garmillas Empire.

At some point in the past, the Garmillas people populated and developed the vast open areas beneath the planet's surface, leaving the outer crust to grow into green wilderness. Despite the species' eventual expansion into and conquest of other star systems and the declaration of the Great Garmillas Empire, the homeworld remained the undisputed center of power and influence for the Garmillan people and for their conquered subjects ("Wish Upon a Star", "What Lies Beyond", "The Planet That We Head For").

In the year 2199 CE, Garmillas briefly became a battlefield in the empire's war with the distant planet Earth. An Earth battleship penetrated the planet's defenses and attacked the palace of Leader Abelt Dessler in the capital city of Baleras. In response, Dessler escaped into space and twice attempted to destroy the invading ship by means that would have wiped out the city and potentially much of Garmillas. However, his attempts were thwarted, and Dessler was believed to have been killed, ending his regime ("One Man's War"). Garmillas served as the capital of a new reform-oriented transitional government ("The Distant Promised Land", "The Forever War").
