The Mandalorians (called Mando'ade in Mando'a, meaning "children of Mandalore") were not truly one species, but a warlike, nomadic group of clan-based people consisting of members from multiple species. Often, they served as mercenaries. (For simplicity sake and to avoid confusion, they are treated like a species in this Wiki)
Their culture revolved around that of battle and war being a source of honor and pride in their community. The leader of the Mandalorians typically took on the title of "Mandalore." Mandalorians were frequently allied with the Sith, most notably Exar Kun and much later as a prototype for the Clone trooper under the power of Darth Sidious and the Galactic Republic, though they would not hesitate to cooperate with the Jedi if it suited them.
In later years Mandalorian Warriors wore very distinctive battle helmets with T-shaped visors that covered the entirety of their faces, which would provide inspiration for the helmets of the clone troopers. These helmets would eventually become strongly associated with the Mandalorian people.
