Has there ever been a wide scale extermination of non human species in the SW universe? If not, then why not? These damn aliens have been stealing human jobs and such!

The empire did on small scale.
But they didn't exterminate 'em they enslaved 'em.

Re: Re: Humans, unite!
Always the first cited example. Other examples of extermination include acts by... let's see.... EVERY major power in existance and many no longer in existance.

And rather sad. But beside the thread point. There's nothing to indicate a real purge, but then again who would know? In a galaxy with billions of star systems one race being wiped out is relatively minor and likely to go unnoticed. It's as Atton said when he saw the Miralukan- that he didn't think any more existed. And yet they are found even in the PT times and beyond.
A bunch of races have been hunted down to the brink of extinction. Mandelorians, Miralukans, Massassi, Ubese and god knows how many others... It just doesn't really matter on the grand scale of things, as long as they aren't the mayor races it really doesn't mean shit.
There was a purge of people with certian ideals. The jedi purge. And the Miraluka and Mandalorians and Ubeese weren't hunted down. They were (mostly) wiped out in battle, or a huge weapons accident, or Darth Nihilus.

I hadn't caught that myself until my second playthru, I think. Miralukans are also used in some RPG sourcebooks, and there may be some in EU and movies, but I hadn't really looked.
Yeah it was a colony. Atton also says he didn't think any of them were left in this part of the galaxy..
However the damage done by Nihilus would have been incredible to make such an impact on the race. Even if it was a colony. Besides sometimes colony's become more important then the capitols, more inhabitent or bigger.
And what about the disease Ysanne Isard leaked into Coruscant's water system that targeted non-humans.
