Secreted beneath the surface of a serene Naboo lake is a world entirely different than that encountered above. Here is the hidden domain of the amphibious Gungans, the native inhabitants of the peaceful planet.
在纳布星上，一片平静的湖面下别有一番洞天。这里是两栖种族冈根人的秘密领地。冈根人是这颗和平星球上的土著居民。

The largest Gungan city, Otoh Gunga, is a spectacle to behold. A crowning achievement of unique Gungan technology, the city appears as a glittering cluster of jewel-like bubbles connected together in the dark waters. The bubbles are hydrostatic force-fields that contain breathable atmospheres for the city's inhabitants. Though they are rigid enough to keep the water out, they can be breached by Gungans swimming to and from the city.
作为最大的冈根城市，奥托冈加令人叹为观止。这个城市代表了冈根人独特科技的最高水平，它看上去就像一簇彼此紧密相连的气泡，如钻石一般在漆黑的水底闪闪发光。一个气泡就是一个静水力场，其中充满了供城市居民呼吸的空气。尽管牢固的气泡壁足以防水，但来往于城市的冈根人还是能穿破它。

The architecture of Otoh Gunga is sweeping in shape, lacking the rectilinear symmetry commonly found in human designs. The Gungans actually grow the building material of their cities, and the elegant structures contained within the bubbles consist of curving forms that look alive.
奥托冈加的建筑外观圆滑光洁，没有人类建筑常用的直线对称样式。事实上，冈根人城市的建筑材料都是冈根人种植出来的。气泡的内部结构充满了曲线形，显得精美别致，生动活泼。

Inside Otoh Gunga is the High Board Room of the Gungan Rep Council. This is home to the government of the Gungans, where their leader, Boss Nass, resided. During the Trade Federation occupation of Naboo, Nass ignored the battle droid threat, deeming it to be an offworlder concern. The battle droids eventually encroached on Gungan territory, invading Otoh Gunga. The Gungans abandoned their beautiful home, and hid in the nearby forests containing the Gungan Sacred Place.
冈根人代表委员会高官办公室位于奥托冈加城内。它既是冈根人的政府所在地，也是领导人纳斯头领的住所。在贸易联盟占领纳布期间，战斗机器人的威胁没有引起纳斯的注意，他认为这只是外部世界的事务。战斗机器人最终还是侵入了冈根人的领土，占领了奥托冈加。冈根人被迫逃离自己美丽的家园，躲藏在附近的森林里，那里是冈根人的圣地。

衍生宇宙



Millennia ago, following strife and conflict, the Gungans of the regions retreated beneath the serene surface of Lake Paonga and began to construct what would become Otoh Gunga. The discovery of locap roots led to unique technological developments that made Otoh Gunga possible.
几千年前，历经战乱的冈根人从各地移居庞加湖平静的水面下，开始建设后来被称为“奥托冈加”的城市。洛卡普植物根被发现后，独特的科技发展使奥托冈加的出现成为可能。

Though Naboo lacks a molten core, its porous structure is permeated by a highly energized naturally occurring plasma. The roots of the locap plant pierce through the planet's honeycombed crust, and metabolize the plasma, distilling and naturally stabilizing it in the digestive process. The locap plant contains this safe form of plasma in buds located on the tips of its stalks, which the Gungans then harvest as a power source.
尽管纳布星球没有熔融核，但其多孔的地质结构里渗透着一种天然的高能等离子体。洛卡普植物根穿进蜂窝般的地壳，使等离子体产生代谢变化，在消化过程中对等离子体进行蒸馏和自然稳定。洛卡普植物把这种处理过的安全等离子体储存在茎部顶端的胚芽中。这些胚芽被冈根人收割后，成为他们的能源。

The Gungans strongly believe in a harmonious balance with their natural world, and Otoh Gunga, like many of their cities, is built atop the immense locap branches found underwater. Gungans also harvest a swamp plant called bubble spore. The spores are boiled to extract the raw material called bubble wort. Using a secret technique, Gungans combine bubble wort catalyst and stabilized plasma in electrostatic field generators to create the permeable hydrostatic bubbles they need to keep their cities dry.
冈根人坚信天人合一的思想。与他们的许多城市一样，奥托冈加也构筑在水底巨大的洛卡普植株上。冈根人还收割一种叫“泡孢”的湿地植物。把泡孢煮沸后，可以从中提取一种叫“泡汁”的原料。冈根人利用一种秘密技术，在静电场发生器中把泡汁催化剂和稳定后的等离子体结合在一起，制造出可穿透静水气泡，用于保持城市的干燥。

Otoh Gunga grew from a cluster of bubbles -- now called the Ancient Quarter -- to encompass an area inhabited by a million Gungans. The central district consists of elegant city squares, noisy cantinas, and sacred bubbles for the worship of Gungan gods. As the city radiated outwards, areas such as the Otoh Villages, were most Gungans live and work, were organically grown and grafted onto the existing structure. In an effort to make an indelible mark on Otoh Gunga during his term, Boss Nass commissioned a popular concourse called the City Bigspace.
奥托冈加从一簇气泡——现在被称为“旧城区”的地方——发展为一个容纳了一百万冈根人的大城市。市中心有宏伟的广场、喧闹的酒吧和祭拜冈根神的圣泡。随着城区不断向外辐射扩大，像奥托村那样的区域被有机地安插和嫁接在现有的城市结构上。奥托村是大部分冈根人生活和工作的场所。纳斯头领为了让奥托冈加永远打上自己的烙印，他在任内兴建了一座广受欢迎的大型广场，即“豪城大地”广场。

Following the defeat of the Trade Federation, overcrowding became a prime concern for Boss Nass and the Rep Council. The increased tolerance of visiting off-worlders resulted in Otoh Gunga becoming a tourist attraction and, surprisingly, an often-recommended spot for honeymooning vacationers.
贸易联盟溃败后，人口密度过大成为纳斯头领和代表委员会面对的首要难题。冈根人的热情好客使奥托冈加变成了一个旅游胜地。更出乎人们意料的是，很多新人也被推荐来此度蜜月。

幕后



While the Art Department began sketching away, conceiving the underwater Bubble City (as it was called in production notes), questions arose as to how a supposedly primitive culture could create so fantastic a settlement. The Gungans couldn't be shown to be reliant on advanced technology, but still had to have the means to construct such a city. George Lucas' vision that the Gungans be completely harmonious to Naboo's ecology provided the answer -- though the amphibians didn't have the means to build technology, they had discovered a way of growing it.
当艺术部门开始规划酝酿水下“气泡城”（制作笔记中的名字）时，问题产生了，那就是一个看上去相当原始的文明怎么能创造出如此神奇的住宅？冈根人不能显得过于依赖高科技，但他们还是有办法建造这样一个城市。乔治·卢卡斯解决了这个问题，他认为冈根人与纳布的生态系统完全和谐共存——尽管这个两栖种族没办法创造技术，但他们有办法培育技术。

As such, most of the Gungan architecture and devices have similar organic curves and lines, reminiscent of coral, crustacean and seashell formations. To further underscore the Gungan philosophy, Lucas downplayed the support structures and surrounding "ribs" of the bubble city, so that it would appear mostly as incandescent globes.
这样，大部分冈根建筑和设备都有类似的生物曲线和纹理，让人联想到珊瑚、甲壳和贝壳的形态。为了进一步突出冈根人的哲学，卢卡斯对气泡城市的支撑结构和环抱“肋骨”进行了淡化处理，使它看上去更像一个个闪亮的光球。
