Origins
The Twlve Colonies were introduced in the original Battlestar Galactica. They were located in an unnamed multi-star system within the Cyranus Galaxy, and had been at war with the alien Cylons for 1,000 yahrens (years).
The original Twelve colonies were:
- Aeries
- Caprica
- Gemoni
- Picon
- Sagitaria
- Scorpion
- Tauron
- Virgon
Re-imagined Universe
In the [Re-imagined|re-imagined Battlestar Galactica]], the 12 colonies were originally located on a single world - Kobol (early draft of the Mini-Series script). However, this was later revised to 12 separate worlds, in keeping with the original concept.
It is unclear whether all 12 colonies are orbiting a single star or not, or what the name of this star might be. However, the 2003 Video Game proposed the home system for the 12 colonies is called Cyrannus. This has yet to be accepted as canon in the new television series.
