Fremdans

The Fremdans are a genetic subgroup of the amygdaline species. After disagreeing, in a matter of the amygdaline-transient conflict, with other Oligarchs and the Autocrat, the genetic particularity of the Fremdans was discovered and deemed a defect that should be purged. Approximately 6,860,000 amygdalines were killed in this "genetic purge". A group of refugees from this purge were discovered in Earth in 1971. Notable Fremdans are Cxefo, Esperas, Stelo, Krias, and Ampersand.

History
During Ampersand's time in power as an Oligarch in the Superorganism, the transients had discovered how to use remote energy pulses specifically targeted at amygdalines, a technology Obelus used to recapture Ampersand. This techonology was being used by the transients to become aggressive toward their sister species. In this context, Similars discovered a planet, 62 light-years from the Superorganism, that had been consumed by transients, which led into a stable boom in population.

The majority of the Oligarchs in the Superorganism believed this large transient population was a threat to amygdaline existance. This was met with a petition from other Oligarchs, such as Ampersand, that this population's mere existance was not crime enough to warrant genocide. However, other Oligarchs, Stratocrats and the Autocrat ignored this objection, and proceeded to sterilize the planet. This process, which killed "hundreds of millions" of transients, was described by Ampersand as such:"'They sterilized it,” he said. “The entire planet. Not just transients—all life. Even single-celled organisms. The oceans boiled. Nothing survived'"Afterwards, the Autocrat solicited "studies" as to why so many Oligarchs, and indeed a large swath of the population, opposed the idea of genocide. The conclusion was that those that went against this measure had an inherent biological defect due to their breeding. Therefore, the completion of the transient genocide depended, to the eyes of the Autocrat and the Oligarchs, on the purging of this specific trait from the Superorganism (to which any "viewpoint that might place the lives of aliens as equal value to that of [amgygdaline lives] was considered a defect"). This led to the deaths of almost 7 million amygdalines, according to Ampersand.

The Fremda Group
In 1971, a group of Fremdan refugees were discovered in Guam.
