Twelve Colonies

The Twelve Colonies of Man, also called the Twelve Colonies of Kobol, are fictional locations that constitute the principal human civilization in the ''Battlestar Galactica'' universe. This includes the original 1978 series, the 2003 "reimagined" series, and its spin-offs ''Caprica'' (2009) and ''Blood and Chrome'' (2012). The names of twelve planets were taken from the signs of the Zodiac.
The Twelve Colonies were established by tribes who left their homeworld, Kobol, the birthplace of humanity. There were at one time thirteen tribes, but one that was separated from the others instead went to a distant planet called Earth. In the reimagined series, the humans of the Twelve Colonies totalled around 50 billion people.〔In the episode "A Disquiet Follows My Soul", Kara Thrace gives an estimate of 50 billion people who died in the Cylons attack on the colonies〕 In both the 1978 and 2003 series, the Twelve Colonies were attacked by the Cylons who virtually exterminated humanity. A few thousand survivors escaped in a collection of assorted spacecraft that formed a fleet headed by the Battlestar ''Galactica'' that attempted to lead them to safety. The concept of twelve colonies alludes to the Twelve Tribes of Israel.
==1978 original series==

* Given the name's negative connotations, the word "Cancer" was rarely spoken, or even shown on-screen, as a colony name. (Some fan-fiction accuses that particular colony of having been a center of all manner of vice and crime.)
* Count Baltar was the representative of one of the colonies (it was never revealed which one was his home) prior to his betrayal. The script for the first episode states that he was from the colony of "Orion", however this mention never made it to the screen. (The telefilm novelization, however, says he was a wealthy rare items trader whom the Cylons first approached to sue for peace, and whose title of Count was self-awarded, but all this information has to be regarded as somewhat apocryphal as none of it was ever mentioned in the series.)
* In either version of the show, many colonies spoke different languages. For example, in the original series, Gemonese was spoken in several scenes (in the Terra arc, 'Terra' is said to be the Gemonese term for 'Earth').
* In the original series pilot (and novelization), Adama remarked that Sagitara had "the best defense systems in the Colonies".
* In the novelization for the series pilot, several Colonies were mentioned: Virgon, Sagitara, Caprica, Scorpia, Taura, Piscera and Gemini.
* In the novelization, one planet is called Aeriana, yet in the episode "The Long Patrol," it is pronounced Aeries.
* In a deleted scene from "Experiment in Terra," Apollo mentions Sagitaria, though it was called Sagitara in all other references.
* In "The Magnificent Warriors," Orion is mentioned a few times, and it is stated that it was not one of the Colonies, but a nearby planet.
* In the novelization for "The Young Lords," the planets Aquarus, Scorpia and Virgon are mentioned.
* In the novelization of the pilot for the 1978 series, the Twelve Colonies are referred to as "The Twelve Colonies of the Three Suns."
