The Langarans are humans native to Langara and descended from the Tau'ri of Earth.

Overview
They are divided into three superpowers: Kelowna, Tirania, and the Andari Federation. Langaran civilization have technology roughly equivalent to that of Earth near the end of World War II, industrial but still missing technologies like jet propulsion and antibiotics.

The three superpowers had undergone a long period of mistrust, but a military alliance between Tirania and the Andari Federation caused Kelowna to design a naquadria bomb. The detonation of the naquadria bomb actually de-escalated tensions in the long term by getting the three powers to come to the negotiating table, eventually agreeing to the creation of a world ruling body, the Joint Ruling Council. {{cite|SG1|Meridian|Homecoming|Fallout}}


Physiology
Though it was never explored, comments and behavior have suggested that Langarans may have slightly more advanced genetics than baseline humans. From the start, Jonas Quinn demonstrated exceptional learning capabilities, able to digest large quantities of information in a short amount of time. Even Daniel Jackson was surprised that Jonas was able to read through an ostensibly complex book that Daniel had loaned to him in only one night. After probing Jonas' mind, Anubis noted that Jonas' physiology was unique and drew his curiosity. While this may seem to be exclusive to Jonas, the Kianna Cyr's Goa'uld|Goa'uld implanted in Kianna Cyr also seemed impressed by Kianna's apparent heightened intellect. It's unknown whether this is characteristic of just a select few like Jonas and Kianna, or perhaps only Kelownan|Kelownans, or if it's how all Langarans have evolved. {{cite|SG1|Meridian|Homecoming|Fallout}}
