The Cold Empires after the rulers die?

[Dorexx]

What do you think happened to Freeza's Empire, Coola's Empire and Cold's Empire after they died?

Did someone else become a ruler?

Did all billions of minions on hundreds (thousands?) of planets just quit their jobs?

Did Goku one day decide to use Shunkan Ido and eradicate every single remains of them? This would make a pretty good training exercise for the androids. (And he wouldn't want to make the same mistake he did with the RR Army, after Trunks just informed him).

They probably just went on to live normal lives, or probably went crazy and destroyed each other.

Someone took his place, like in a mafia family.

Or, most likely, their minions after long fights broke it into many smaller ones.

I dunno, rather you think their stories are canon or not, weren't they suggested to take over depending on which you read/watched:

[Eire]

Yes, my vote for the cute one

Freeza was still alive when Kuriza appeared in Neko Majin. There is also DBO's storyline in which the remnants of Freeza's army join Miira. I don't think it has been said what they did prior to joining him though.

Freeza was still alive when Kuriza appeared in Neko Majin.

No, Freeza was revealed to be alive in the chapter Vegeta appeared in, which is the only chapter which doesn't make sense in the least since Freeza was dead before Vegeta became a Super Saiyan. I simply ignore chapter 3, and everything works out fine.

Ah.
But even so, you can't exactly say that Kuriza was suggested to have taken over when you read Neko Majin as he wasn't.

I'm pretty sure you can take it as implied (as long as you ignore chapter 3 and the Freeza references). Simply understanding how that family works seems to be the best hint. The little personality Kurieza shows in the chapter is almost exactly like his father, he probably jumped at the chance to take over the family business as soon as the other three fell. Of course I can't prove it because it isn't stated, but to me, it really doesn't have to be. lol

And that is why I said you can't exactly say it. If read the story, he didn't take over as Freeza hadn't even died.
That is not to say you can't ignore it for your own personal canon or whatever.

No doubt it fractured into a series of warring litte kingdoms. Any henchmen with a power level above 15 000 (which is quite an impressive strength) must have taken their chunk and begun fighting the others.

[Godo]

I think that there are only two Cold Empire rulers at a time. The master and his apprentice. Together they bring the dark ki into the star systems.
When one disappears, he is promptly replaced. Thus, the evil rulers will forever fight in a battle against good and evil.
The rebels, though, are normal people, lead by the once grand and noble Saiya-jin race. Together, they banded against the Cold Empire and were betrayed.
Now, only a few Saiya-jins remain of which one of them will fight to avenge the death of his bloodline and save the light part of the ki.

I don't see a problem ignoring the chapter than causes problems for the actual and currently undefined "canon" either, as Neko Majin Z is nothing more than a gag manga. Dr. Slump is shown to take place on the same Earth as Dragon Ball, yet it would be impossible for a LOT of the events that transpire in Dr. Slump to have happened in the DB. Hell, Arale should have killed the entire population of Earth when she smashed the planet back and forth into Venus and Mars in a matter of seconds, or the time that she cracked the planet almost completely in half and didn't bother to fix it, etc.

That's where Lunch disappeared to post DB. Super gluing the Earth back together.

On topic:
I figure the whole thing fractured with the strongest ones left taking over little sections.

Unless you want to count the stuff in the Garlic Jr. saga where Vegeta was hunting them down for SSJ training. XD

I see what you did there.

There's nothing wrong with ignoring Chapter 3. You have to ignore countless chapters in Dr. Slump because they don't fit or make sense to the rest of the story.

Going by the Jump Special, if Freeza still has remnants running around harassing people, then it just goes to prove that Goku and his friends aren't superheroes. They took care of what they were directly involved in and went back to their normal lives for awhile until some other trouble got in their way.

No, they're not. But I don't think they could have done anything either. Right after Freeza they had to prepare for the Androids and after that , the only full time fighters left were Piccolo and Vegeta and maybe Tenshinhan and from these 3, only Vegeta probably knew his way around the galaxy and I don't see him caring enough.
