The show follows the conflict between the human race, as represented by the residents of the Twelve Colonies of [[Kobol]], and the [[Cylon]] race, a robotic race created by the humans fifty years prior to the events of the television show.  Shortly after their creation, these [[Cylons]], appearing as metallic robots, rebelled and fought a long war against the humans.  After great losses by humanity, an armistice was signed.
