GOOD MORNING ALL.
okay. my view of colonization ranges from single ship shoe string
efforts, corporate coloniztion, voluntary colonization, and drafted
colonists from heavily populated countries or worlds.
the single ship effort might be anything from a group of friends and
relatives, religious or political groups seeking greener grass and
elbow room to establishing a small mining operation.
corporate colonization could range from low budget colonies to major
efforts where in construction crews are sent first to build the
original colony site up before the arrival the corporate colonists.
national / planetary voluntary colonization would have citizen
volunteers sent out to colony worlds at government expense to
establish a colony at government expense.
involuntary colonists from heavily populated countries / planets, who
are drafted and sent out at government expense to establish a colony.
or, using the example from the uk and down under, a government
colonization fleet that hauls undesirables out to the world to establish
government run colonies .
or penal colony like the infamous french colony in either central or
south america -brain dead; all i can think of is devil's island
and not the proper name.
