There are about 1 billion Korath remaining, most of which are the Kor Efreti. The Kor Mereti and Kor Sestor ships were left alone because the Quarg were not able to defeat them. Those who gave in to the demands of the Drak became known as the Kor Efreti and remain under the protection of the Quarg. Those who refused to give up their drives were banished to the core and became the Korath Exiles. The remaining Korath were given a choice- either give up their jump drives and advanced technology or be exiled. The Korath had developed weapons of mass destruction able to eradicate planets and blow up stars. That war ended about a century before the events of Endless Sky when the Drak intervened. Those robotic ships are the Kor Sestor and Mereti that we know today. At the start of the war, the Mereti and Sestor were regular Korath, but eventually both sides developed robotic, self replicating ships which could fight each other forever. Presumably later in their history, all of Korath space erupted into civil war, a war which involved the Kor Mereti and the Kor Sestor. Several centuries ago, some faction of Korath invaded Hai space, although the warriors which would later become the Unfettered drove them back and the raids stopped at about 2820. The Korath discovered spaceflight in about 37,000 B.C.E. Much of what we know of the Korath's history is either muddled or not in chronological order.
