## History

### Galactic Exploits

The Kree are a humanoid race who follow a strict, militaristic lifestyle. They are the rulers of the Kree Empire, a large, interstellar imperial group that encompasses various planets, and features the Sakaaran species as a client race. They are one of the many races encountered by the Asgardians in the Nine Realms and the worlds beyond Yggdrasil. Their relationship with the Asgardians is frosty at best, as the Asgardians see the Kree as deceitful and savage.

The United Planets, another galactic group that live in the same borders as the Kree Empire, also have a strained relationship with the Kree, as evidenced by the great war that had been waged between the two factions for hundreds of decades.

Interbreeding with various other races led to the creation of a second race of Kree with pink skin. The Pink Kree would eventually come to outnumber the Blue Kree.

Wars between the Kree and other races is renownedly frequent and has brought a negative viewpoint upon their culture by other civilizations. During one such war, the Kree suffered high casualties and became divided on how to even the odds. One particular pair of Kree, known as the Reapers, dispatched science teams across different worlds, experimenting on various alien races in order to produce bio-weapons.

Through their work, they discovered that sentient life on Earth had genetic potential invested in it by the Celestials. Intrigued, the Kree began to experiment on Earth's homo sapiens.

Their goal was twofold – to investigate possible ways of circumventing their own evolutionary stagnation, and to create powerful soldiers to use against the Skrulls. However, the Kree Empire soon discovered these illegal practices and eradicated the operation.

### Ronan's Vendetta

By 2014, the war between the Kree and the United Planets had ended, thanks in no small part to the Nova Prime Irani Rael being able to force the Kree Emperor to sign a peace treaty. Seeking revenge against the United Planets and refusing to abide by the treaty, Ronan the Accuser allied with Thanos, promising to give him the Orb in exchange for the forces necessary to annihilate Xandar, the capital of the United Planets.

The treaty was not popular among the Kree citizenry, as massive riots broke out across their homeworld when the news of it broke. Ronan's quest against Xandar eventually led to his downfall. In a destructive battle waged in both Xandar's airways and city streets, Ronan came close to destroying the entire planet using an Infinity Stone, but the Guardians of the Galaxy were able to use the stone to kill him. In the aftermath of Ronan's crusade, there remained a faction of "Kree purists", who counted the Guardians of the Galaxy as enemies.
