The Hari were a spacefaring race of sentients that, despite their advancement, never discovered the existance of jump points. Because of this, the Hari traveled between planets at sublight speed, taking only as many of their own kind as were necessary. Once they found a suitable world, they would reproduce quickly and consume all the available natural resources. New ships would then be constructed to travel to fresh worlds, taking only a select few. The Hari left a barren wasteland of lifeless planets behind them.

The Hari made up the Hari Empire and occupied what is now known as the Hari Sector. The Hari Sector was rendered virtually lifeless as a result of the Hari's relentless consumption of natural resources.

The inability of the Hari to travel or communicate at faster than light speed, combined with the political instability inherent in a system of leadership and governance based on assassination, made the Hari easy prey. The Hari were completely annihilated in a war with the Kilrathi over 200 years before the Kilrathi-Human first contact. Previous to this conflict, the Kilrathi had no understanding of the concept of assassination.

The Hari never made contact with the human race prior to its extinction.
