[quote=@6slyboy6]@Wildman13 Everything was conquered by the EOM, I can guarantee you that they made sure. The only exceptions are a few nebulas, namely those that the Kegran reside in. I would also like to point out the 20% human population, which is fair in a CS sense, but this does mean that 20% is the top class of citizens. Meaning that they probably live in their own cities, and govern from there. Which brings me to another point. How do you imagine the clan system as a working part of the Empire? Surely such a volatile chain can hardly be trusted by the EOM. Why didn't they replace it? The rest is fine, but these thing worry me.[/quote] You have a point that the EOM would make sure that they would have secured everything, so it got me thinking how about this, The EOM turned the green planet of ram into a industrial world as most of the slaves are there, soon the once blue skies have now turned black, and the land no longer fertile, so farming is now useless, so if they got most of the surface under their control all of the remaining independent clans would retreat underground where they would be hidden from the EOM this would make sense as the only thing that can destroy them are the EOM's ships and a huge army. I agree that the humans that are gonna live there is gonna segregate their cities from the barbaric Zenos also because they are gonna have lots of free labor and abundance of export that they make would in doubt make their cities economic juggernauts or prosperous. The clan system only works for the independent clans that have survived to this day what I mean by empire are the old Rarian empires that once dominated the planet of Ram but as for the other slaves the ones that are in-charge of them are naturally their owners or the slavers that buy, sell and transports them to interested buyers as the Rarians enslaved or not will rather die than serve someone that haven't proven themselves.
