THE BASICS:

• The Saiyan home planet was the planet Vegeta.
• The King of the Saiyans was King Vegeta.
• The Prince of the Saiyans is Prince Vegeta (Or just Vegeta to me or you)
• Saiyans have tails
• The tails on Saiyans allow them to transform into big ape-like creatures called Oozarus when they look at a full moon.
• When Saiyans turn Oozaru, they possess 10 times the power as they would in their normal form
• The whole race used to work for Frieza, taking over planets for him.
• Frieza destroyed the planet Vegeta.
• A Saiyan named Bardock was Goku's father, and the only one who found out about Freiza's plan to destroy planet Vegeta.
• Saiyans get stronger after they recoverr from serious wounding.
• Saiyans, like humans, are unable to breathe in space.
• Goku's Saiyan name is Kakarotto.
• Vegeta is the oldest living Saiyan.
• The Saiyans used to send out small pods with babies in, to take over the planets for them.

INTERMEDIATE STUFF:

• SSJ stands for super Saiya-jin (The Japanese spelling for super Saiyan)
• The gravity on planet Vegeta is 20 times what it is on Earth, which is one of the reasons that they are so strong.
• Brolli is supposedly legendary super Saiyan, because he was born with amazing power.
• Before turning SSJ 4, Saiyans go golden Oozaru.
• Nappa used to have hair!
• When a Saiyan is in his Oozaru form, he can't control his actions (Vegeta is the only one who can)
• A Saiyan turns SSJ when he reaches a new level of power, and has uncontrollable rage flowing through his veins.
• Before finding out about Frieza, it was thought the planet Vegeta was destroyed by a meteor shower.

ADVANCED FACTS:

• SSJ 4 has black hair, not blonde like the other transformations.
• Saiyans hair is rock hard, which is why Goku and Vegeta trained in the graviton without messing their "do's" up.
• Bardock (Goku's dad) was the strongest Saiyan on the planet at one point (even stronger than Vegeta, who was only a kid)
• Trunks isn't the only Saiyan without black hair, Bra, Vegeta and Bulma's second child, had blue hair just like her mother. (Vegeta's was brown at the start, but we all must assume it was supposed to be black, as it has been in all the other episodes)
• The reason for Trunks' hair not being black may be because he is a hybrid of a human and a Saiyan.
