The Bardottans are a species in the Star Wars universe known for their strong connection to The Force. They hail from the planet Bardotta, located in the Mid Rim region of the galaxy. The Bardottans are distinguishable by their tall, lanky frames and distinct facial features, including large eyes and a prominent crest running down their faces. Historically, they have a unique relationship with The Force, often channeling it through spiritual and religious practices rather than the more combat-oriented way of the Jedi or Sith orders.
One of the most notable Bardottans is Queen Julia, who plays a significant role in the "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" television series. Her interactions with characters like Jar Jar Binks and Jedi Master Mace Windu highlight the Bardottans' emphasis on their spiritual traditions and the tension between their beliefs and those of the Jedi. The Bardottans were wary of the Jedi, considering them to be Force-wielders who destabilize the natural balance, which added a layer of complexity to their interactions during the tumultuous Clone Wars era.
