Like the Klingons of Star Trek, the Mandalorians of Star Wars abide by a sacred code of honor. As we learn in The Mandalorian, they don’t all agree on how that code works, but they all have it.
But perhaps my favorite thing about these aliens is what sets them apart from similar fictional warrior races: what does and does not make you one of them has nothing to do with your species. Even Din Djarin, the lead hero of The Mandalorian, is not native to Mandalore but instead was made one when he was what they call a “foundling.”
Mandalorians, in other words, don’t care about what you look like, whether you’re from the same planet, or whether you’re the size of a volleyball and have massive green ears. All they care about is what you do.
