Tne Furlings:An advanced race of beings that look like us (despite Jacks 
jokes to the contrary) but speak a very different language.They are 
technologically maxed out, with weapons similar to the most powerful
Asgard 
beams and Lantean drones, as well as advanced power sources and
****elds.They 
have tremendous life spans and there is no disease on their homeworlds,
and 
there is no such thing as poverty or wealth.The big and unusual difference

is they are a race totally run and ruled by complete bureaucracy.The
inital 
treaty with the Asgard, the Nox, and the Ancients took 700 years, as after

the very first meeting of these beings with others, the team meeting them 
had to go back to be second-guessed and questioned, and those doing the 
guessing and questioning also questioned and second-guessed. to the point 
that decades later it was still being argued in their courts wether or not

the clothing worn by the initial contactees was appropriate.As odd as this

sounds, it keeps them at a perfect equilibirum, as they know that if they 
didnt live this way, they would spread out and rule the known
universe.This 
behavior itself is based on millions of years of constant second-guessing 
and internal refelction.They keep themselves isolated to maintain this 
equilibrium.One of the main technological advances is the ability to
"blip", 
or "blipping", able to instantly trans****t matter or ****ps short distances

in nanoseconds.You could fire a laser weapon at one of their ****ps and it 
would appear on the other side of yours instantly, destroying your ****p 
(although they do not fight, they pride themselves on perfect military 
displays, all argued about for years down to the tone of the voice of the 
officers giving commands)They have technology all over that does similar 
things.

However when the team finally meets them, they are engaged in a real civil

war.Now that they have met, they and every race associated with the team
are 
now dragged into a war to the finish, with no side as the right side to 
fight on.The Furlings are now an enemy.
Anyway, no, they werent killed off in episode 200.
;-) Any other questions?
