Unreferenced date May 2008 Polish clans lang pl Rody differ from most clan systems in that while they are mostly composed of families sharing male line origin there can also be some genealogically unrelated families bearing the same coat of arms and clan name because of a formal adoption upon ennoblement or sometimes because of a misattribution petrified in heraldic literature. This is discussed under the topic of Polish Heraldry . Polish nobility, the szlachta , has its origins in Middle Ages chivalric clan s who provided military support to the king, the dukes, or various overlords. Over the centuries, various families, indeed whole noble classes from other nations, for example Lithuania, have been incorporated into the Polish clan system, by adoption. Exceptions apart, all Polish families belonging to the same noble clan used and continue to use the same coat of arms, sometimes with minor variations of Tincture heraldry tincture . The original Polish word herb encompasses the meanings clan as well as coat of arms simultaneously. Membership in a Polish clan does not always connote consanguinity or even territoriality, as do Scottish clan , but refers to the fact that member families belong to the same heraldic clan. This is why hundreds of different, sometimes unrelated families are to be found within the same clan with all of them being entitled to use the same coat of arms. For this reason, rather than being parallel to the Scottish clan model, the Polish clan system may be considered as being more akin to the Norse clans Scandinavian tt and the Sippe Germanic sippia .

However, after the invention of Neosapien s, the Pirates ancestors were abandoned on their moons and had to find new ways to exist. They ve learned to build their own spacecraft spaceship s and became space pirate s, attacking and looting transporters from the Homeworlds and constantly battling the Exofleet . This is the reason why many Pirates hated the Homeworlds and their inhabitants. The Pirate Fleet was much smaller than the Exofleet or the Neo Fleet, but they possessed a unique cloaking device cloaking technology based on the s.c. dark matter , which allowed them to navigate their ships undetected. In fact, they even had a secret spaceport hidden on Exosquad planets Chaos Chaos , the tenth planet of the Solar System consisting entirely of the dark matter . Despite its advantages, however, the dark matter also had a negative side effect on humans those frequently exposed to it often displayed aggressive and violent tendencies, resulting in constant fighting even among allies.
