They also talked about "going back to Mistral" implying that is where they were based. Seems Cinder and her crew have simply strong-armed the local branch of the White Fang into working with them. Makes one wonder how involved the rest of the White Fang is in this fight.

It has yet to be mentioned, but we've heard of Menagerie (a much smaller landmass) being used as a home for outcasts. I believe that the dragon continent has an insanely high concentration of Grimm, but this seems strange. How severe would the concentration have to be for the second biggest landmass on the known map to be left to the Grimm? Why would this continent be any different? The most obvious explanation is that the Black Dragon continent is ground zero for the Grimm's appearance. Presumably, any human settlements there at the time the Grimm emerged were too small to resist or were overtaken in a surprise attack too rapidly to prevent them taking the continent. Assuming, of course, that there was any human settlement at the time. That little strip of green along the coast is most likely a beachhead that has been established to keep the main Grimm forces at bay. One would also assume that is where the longest-lived and therefore largest or most intelligent of Grimm have been present.

I'm not sure that there was a single specific ground zero since Grimm cover most of Remnant. I also think that some of the Grimm on that continent have never seen a human, but the CCTS WOR episode showed  support towers there. Who knows? For now we're taking shots in the dark.
