Star Wars is such an enormous setting and the EU has introduced tons of concepts from other sci fi mediums. I searched Wookieepedia and I found almost all of them. Are their any sci fi tech/science/concepts that haven't appeared?

There's little to nothing on, say, transhumanism used for gender or other forms of expression. There is *one* transgender character and that was for disguise.

It's pretty limited in alternate cultures, the effect of different species' perception therein, and so on.


Like... I'm going to name three books. Ancillary Justice, Murderbot Diaries, and Quantum Thief. Read through any of them and you'll be able to expand your list considerably.

Is that what the OP is about, though? It specifically mentions concepts brought in from other media.

I think the purpose is just to point out that there's a little more to Star Wars than pew-pew ships and laser swords.
