| In [[Richard Hatch]]'s continuation novels based off the [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Original Series]] canon, he and his various co-authors attempt to further develop the different aspects of the Colonials, some of it based off the canonical material available, with others being created solely for the book series.

| {{TOS|Adama}} claims that those of the [[Kobollian|House of Kobol]] settled Caprica. Those of the Kobollian bloodline have always been leaders of Caprica, a fact which is resented by some Capricans, in addition to rearing its head after Adama dies {{RH|Armageddon}}.
