Saiyans
The
Saiyans first appeared on Planet Plant, home world of the Tsufurujins.
They started a war to take over Planet Plant and after years of fighting
they wiped out all of the Tsufurujins and renamed the planet Planet
Vegeta, in honour of their leader. Prince Frieza led an assault against
Planet Vegeta and killed all the Saiyans as well as destroying their
planet. Only seven Saiyans survived the racial oliberation; they were
Goku, Vegeta, Brolly, Paragas, Raditz, Taurus and Nappa. For more
information on the Saiyans, visit Saiyan Stages.
Important
Saiyans: Goku, Vegeta, Brolly, Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Bra and Pan
Humans

weak civilization that lives on Planet Earth, the place where most
fighting takes place during the DBZ and DB series.

Chiaotzu and Ubuu
Nameks
This
civilization lived on Planet Namek and took a major roll in the Frieza
Saga. Planet Namek blew up so the Nameks migrated to a new planet they
named New Planet Namek. Although this race was not very powerful, their
elders were the ones who created the Dragon Balls. They have a very long
history.
There
are 2 types of Nameks. The first is combat-type and it includes
characters such as Piccolo. The other is healer-type and that includes
characters such as Dende.
Important
Nameks: Piccolo, Piccolo Daimao (in DB series only), Nail, Kami Sama,
Guru (Great Elder) and Dende
Arlians
A
race we see that lived on the Planet Arlia, until Vegeta and Nappa wiped
out the planet. Also,
there were no important Arlians.
Tsufurujins
(Truffles)
An
advanced civilization with advanced weaponry. Their home world, Planet
Plant, was captured by the Saiyans and their entire civilization was
also destroyed by the Saiyans during King Vegeta Ou's
reign. Babi was the only Tsufurujin who survived the destruction.
Important
Tsufurujins: Babi
Changeling
A
powerful race in which King Cold is their leader. His son, Prince
Frieza, played a major role during the Frieza Saga (ok... he was the
villain). They are an evil organization that takes over planets and uses
its resources and inhabitants to their own advantage.
The
Changelings have a special feature in that they can transform into a
different level, accompanied by a power boost. Frieza had 4 different
stages of transformation and Kooler had 5 different stages of
transformation that they could perform.
Important
Changelings: Frieza and Koola (Cooler)
Saibaimen
These
creatures grow out of the ground and come in a variety of different
species. There are blue ones and green ones from what I have seen in
Dragon Ball Z. There wasn't
any specifically important Saibaimen.
Androids
The
androids we know were created by Dr. Gero. They were created to fight
and destroy things, and later on to kill Goku. This race has a thirst
for killing.
Androids
#19 and #20 had a special device where they could absorb energy
from a Ki or person by placing their hands in contact with the
target. Androids #16, #17 and #18 had unlimited energy that never
increased or decreased. Cell grew stronger as he absorbed more
living-beings. Since he has the blood of a Saiyan, he also benefits from
a power boost everytime he is recovered from the verge of death.
Important
Androids: Android #16, #17, #18, #20, Cell and Super #17.
Makiojin
Examples
of the Makiojin are Garlic Jr and the Spice Boys. They live on the Makio
Star and every 5000 years the Makio Star will give them temporary power.
Important
Makiojins: Garlic Jr
Kaios
The
Kaios take care of the area within the galaxy that they live in. There
are four Kaios: North, South, East and West, who each look after their
designated area of the galaxy. The Kaio who oversees the whole galaxy is
Dai Kaio Sama, who lives on Planet Dai Kaio.
The
Kaios have a trademark technique called Kaioken. This technique puts a
red glow around them and their energy is boosted to whatever level they
intend to boost it to (the limit depends on your original power level).
Important
Kaios: North Kaio Sama (King Kai) and Dai Kaio Sama
Kaioshins
The
Kaioshins take care of the area within the Universe that they live in.
There are four Kaioshins: North, South, East and West. Their supreme
ruler, the God of Gods, is Dai Kaioshin. All the Kaioshins except for
East Kaioshin were slaughtered millions of years ago by Majin Buu so
East Kaioshin took on the role of overseeing the whole Universe.
The
Kaioshins each have their own set of Potara Rings which allow the two
different people wearing them to become permanently fused.
Important
Kaioshins: Kaioshin (formerly East Kaioshin) and Rou Kaioshin.
