Kelowna

From The Stargate Omnipedia

Kelowna2.jpg

One of three major nation-states on the planet Langara. Kelowna is the home of Jonas Quinn, and maintains tenuous relations with its neighbors, Terrania and the Andari Federation, with whom they have formed a Joint Ruling Council. The planet's Stargate is located on Kelowna, whose leaders only recently disclosed its existence to its neighbors.

Kelowna has a deep vein of naquadria beneath its surface, making the planet a prize to the Goa'uld. Some 3,000 years ago, it was home to the Thanos, a Goa'uld who is believed to have artificially created naquadria.

The nation's technological advancement is equivalent to that of the United States in the mid-twentieth century. The head of the government is the First Minister, equivalent to a U.S. president. Velis was First Minister when SG-1 first visited the planet; he was succeeded by Dreylock after being executed by the Goa'uld Anubis.

KEY EPISODES
