Three Zone pirate ships have arrived at Colom in the Clone Star Empire laden with Zone civilians, said to be the last remnants of the Zone pirate nation which the Dinos have almost totally wiped out in recent operations. The three battered ships were carrying some 4,202 survivors which is said to be the sole survivors from a nation that up until a few weeks ago numbered nearly 200,000.
The shell-shocked survivors have asked for political asylum in the CSE and join the other Zones now trying to integrate with the empire. As yet the Clones have not said if they will accept the Zones but it is likely given the small number.
