Editing Proud Warrior Race (section)

== Examples ==
* Green Martians in John Carter of Mars
* Klingons in [[Star Trek]] - probably the most well known incarnation.
* Sontarans in [[Doctor Who]] are a rare exception to the rule, as their militaristic traditions are shown in a negative (or humorous) light rather than positive or at least neutral.
* Sangheili and Jiralhanae in [[Halo]]
* [[The Clans]] in BattleTech
* [[Orc]]s often fall into this trope.
** Same can often be said for the [[Dark Elves]].
* The Dothraki from [[A Song of Ice and Fire]]
* The Ironborn from A Song and Ice and fire. Notably they are a bit of a subversion of the archetype in that a lot of it is the opinion of Romantics yearning for a lost golden age which never really was and they are moving slowly towards trade.
* Saiyans in Dragonball
* [[Mandalorian]]s in [[Star Wars]] sort of straddle the line between race and creed, but either way they only focus on warfare and making weapons for warfare.
* The [[Tau]] [[Fire Caste]]. While often not thought of that way, the Tau Fire Caste are the proud warrior "race" or maybe sub-species of the Tau Empire with even subtle eugenic pressures to ensure that the best Fire Warriors have children who themselves will become Fire Warriors. They are of course supported by other castes of Tau which solves the various logistical issues a Proud Warrior race may have.
* Turians from Mass Effect. The Turians an interesting case in that there 'proud warrior race guy' trope is manifested as a strong and legally mandated tradition of public service, which is often done through the army which does more then just fight and covers police forces, fire fighters, engineers and even civilian shipping via a merchant marine force. It does also mean that like a more stereotyped proud warrior race, every single Turian can if pressed join the armed forces and fight to the last and they openly practice Total War rather then doing anything in a limited fashion. Overall if your on the receiving end of a Turian war it probably look a lot like a Klingon or most other Proud Warrior Race Guys with the entire society mobilizing to kick your ass, but unlike other proud warrior race guy's there not actually looking for somebody to fight at all times.

*[[Spartans]] from [[Halo]] are a UNSC military program meant to design a new race of humans but while the spartan 1 program [[fail|flopped]] the spartan 2 program known originally as the ORION project generation II, was the most effective part of the SPARTAN program, an effort to produce elite soldiers through mechanical and biological augmentation. [[grimdark|The spartan 2 test subjects were kidnapped children so their mentality would be separate from mainstream humanity as social connections like family and nation were replaced with the UNSC]]. Even though they were originally meant to crush separatist rebellions they served as the defense of humanity against the [[covenant]].The [[astartes|subsequent generations of spartan programs would be more humanitarian in their treatment of test subjects]] causing them to be of lesser quality than their [[custodes|spartan 2 counterparts]]. At the same time the Spartans also show the problems with the Proud Warrior Race Guy trope: namely that humanity even with it's super soldiers was losing and losing badly. Sure Spartans were a hella force modifier in there local area but they could not be everywhere and overall the UNSC was losing ground until the [[DM|universe]] threw them a bone and the events of the Halo games played out where a single super solider could have an outsized impact enough to change the war.
