History
The Shadows weren't the first sentient race (the first were the Billians), but they were the first warriors. They conquered their sector extremely fast, and set out to conquer any race that was unfortunate enogh to be in the Outer Rim.

History
As soon as the first young race, the Minbari, evolved, they had shaky relations with the Shadows. Soon, the Centauri, Terrans, Narn, and others developed. Their empire by now spread across the Outer Rim, now able to conquer the Galaxy. But the other races stood in their way. The First Shadow War in 1376 drove the Shadows back to their home, and went into hibernation. In 1000 years, in 2376, they lauched countless attacks into Republic space. That's when they met the Grox. They forged an Alliance, and war was declared by all other races. The Shadows met their match when a combined Minbari, Narn, Terran, and Vorlon fleet attacked Z'ah'dun. This left the world barren and desolate. They left the Rim of the Galaxy in 1,000,000,000 AD, along with the Vorlons.
