Thanagar is not in that list, nor Rann, nor Maltus, nor Imsk.

Braal is a bit confusing, as the Braalians 'hatched' during End of an Era
were always that way (or at least thought they had been).

The Valorian worlds listed were:  Lallor, Bismoll, Braal, Carggg, Janus,
Zwen, Mlain, Murrah, Somahtur, Thanar, Tharr, Winath, and Qeequo.

Imskian shrinking technology showed up during Invasion, making it
pre-Valorian, however, *actual* Imskians were never shown.  Imskians may or
may not have been humanoids for all we know (and in old stories, there were
ancient non-humanoid Imskians IIRC)
