Menagerie was, literally, uncolonized before it was given to the Faunus. Yet in less than a century it got better than Vacuo has been in decades or more.

But, like we can see at one point in Vale's WoR, when showing the settlements in the different continents, we can see 2 settlements show up in the Dragon Continent. Things of note are:

1-They are Red colored, a color which none of the other nations have, not even Menagerie.

2-They were both wiped out by Grimm.

People did try to colonize that continent....and failed hard. They had enough for 2 settlements, and after an unknown amount of time, got wiped out.

Menagerie, supposedly, was only hospitable in 1/3 of it's surface, with the other 2/3 being full of "dangerous wild-life", not to mention Grimm, which are eveywhere. And it was given "fresh" to the Faunus, still discriminated at the time. And yet it has lasted for decades and has a good (for what it is) settlement.

Either the Red Kingdom-Wannabes were just absolutely terrible at it, the Faunus are very damn good, or the Dragon Continent is too dangerous to colonize without much help, leading to Proto-Mt. Glenn.

EDIT: NINJA'D BY 17 SECONDS!! T_T 1. Quote from WoR "You've got towns and villages that pop up as fast as they fall." 7 red icons disappear, not 2.

2. You said that they were destroyed by Grimm. The WoR does not imply that. It implies these towns were not permanent and nomadic. It is also possible that they were destroyed by internal strife.

This is no longer a productive conversation. You can't prove whether the red villages were settlers or nomads or that they were explicitly destroyed by Grimm. However, I can't disprove those your assertions.

However, I will concede that the odds are in your favor. Of the destroyed villages we have seen 100% of them were destroyed by Grimm and 100% of them were intended to be permenant.
