Despite the horrible things that the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za have done to people all across the globe, NEMT pointed out that almost ALL the races enslaved by the Ur-Quan were very happy with their status. The Yehat, Ilwrath, and VUX were fighting all they wanted. The Syreen are blissfully happy on their new planet. The Mycon are hard to tell, although it seems they had plans to overthrow the Ur-Quan later. The Androsynth and Shofixti are pretty much gone, so there's no knowing their opinion on the idea, and the Thraddash are very pleased to be battle thralls, despite their lack of action.
Seems like only the humans and the Chenjesu/Mmrnmhrm were upset about being enslaved.

The Yehat were upset at least about the manner of their defeat... I doubt that the Crimson Corporation, the Utwig, the Supox, or the frungy-loving Zoq-Fot-Pik would enjoy the Ur-Quan dominion.
Incidentally, I was expecting to see a lot of slave shields in this game and was sorely disappointed. (I mean, races conquered around the time of the Thraddash and slaved ever since) This could have something to do with it - those we get to meet are those who chose the battle thrall option - races that like to fight would be selected for remaining visible.

The Umgah weren't too happy either. They couldn't make all the jokes they wanted to because of the slave laws.
On the other hand there's the Arilou, who thought the slave shield over Earth was one of the best things that had ever happened to humans.

I mentioned the humans, although you're right about the Umgah. I had forgotten about them.
And there's also the Spathi, who WOULD have been perfectly happy being slaves, were it not for the fact that they were tricked into fighting.

But look at the distribution. It's all bunched up where neither ur-quan race has been. Now, I get that the Kohr-ah came through with their FRIEDS and wiped species out - but in the northern wake of the Ur-quan I'd expect a density of races ~= that down in the southwest quadrant.

I think you neglected that the zoq-fot-pik count for 4 races (don't forget the zebranky) also, did you remember the Burvix?
I'm not saying that the incidence of sentient life is low... I'm just saying that the distribution is very uneven.

He's right. The Burvixese and the Gg. And possibly the Keel-Verezy, although God knows where they're from.
Also, the Slylandro should be discounted as being older than the other races.

Indeed. Does the game say that you find the *SPOILER ALERT* Taalo mind shield on the Taalo homeworld? It could have gotten there through any number of ways. Perhaps the Orz even stole it.
