Planet Name: New Planet Namek
Race(s): Namekians
Planet Description: A vastly barren planet with few cities and open water with random land masses some times joined together. The planet also has a blue sky and oddly shaped flaura and fauna. Only race that really lives on this planet are Nameks. Only sea life and Amphibious life live on namek, no mammals are ever transported to this planet for any reason.
Planet History: In the era of the Dragon Ball series, there were just over 100 Nameks alive on their home planet; they had been killed off a generation before by a great tempest. The only known survivors are Saichoro, who gradually began to repopulate the planet, and a namek who was sent to safety on Earth, the namek that Kami and Piccolo Daimao used to be.
During the Namek Saga their home world, Planet Namek, was terrorized by Freeza and his henchmen, Zarbon and Dodoria. The planet was ultimately destroyed by Freeza as a last-ditch effort to kill Son Goku in their battle during the Freeza Saga; Freeza could survive in space whereas Goku could not. All of the nameks were temporarily transported to Earth, where they lived for nearly a year before being resettled on New Namek.
What we know of pre-series namek history is very limited. It is clear that they were a well-known space faring race at some point in the not-too-distant past as the saiyans who came to Earth immediately recognized Piccolo as a Namek. It is extremely unlikely that they would be so well-known, of the many alien races introduced over the course of the series, if they were only a primitive farming culture on a single planet. It is also known that nameks had higher technology because one namek was spirited away to Earth in a small space capsule (with namek-language voice recognition) prior to the genocide.
