There must have been other Yeerk invasion spots

[AniDragon]

What, no Canada? (J/K)

[CounterInstinct]

Remember in the final arc, when they trusted that one guy who'd been to France for a week?

I meant this part about France...

[Dameg]

Oh, sorry, yes Canada of course! I'm sure it was the 2nd part after the USA.
I don't remember this part about the guy who went to France O_o which volume? which chapter? ^_^'

I think that they must have had more than one pool across the United States.  The one in California might have been their main one, but to put one in various other important cities would've been a good move on their part.  As for globally, I'm not sure.  I think that they'd want to conquer America first before spreading, although it's not entirely out of the question.

[Dameg]

Of course, there weren't only one in the USA ^_^' How could they do so many things without many Pools...?

[Myitt]

Two words:

Portable Kandrona!   

I'm sure Controllers did have to travel, and for smaller populations in other countries (I'm sure they existed, the U.S. can't be the only country they invaded after all those years) the Controllers probably had smaller pools and individual use Kandrona generators for smaller groups of Yeerks. 

I personally have a Yeerk character (and his host) who used to be a leader for public relations in the London branch of The Sharing...before he became a rebel x3  So I love the idea of the invasion in other countries, the possibilities are a lot of fun.

[Dameg]

Yes, I understand... Portable Kandrona can be usefull. But look, portable Kandrona and portable pools aren't very little... and not easy to hide when you take airplanes... you can't put it in your bag ^_^'
And I don't think all the Yeerks can have a portable Kandrona. Only Vissers and Sub-Vissers... but no really more... And now, many people should travel for their work, many people travel for vacations... Imagine you're a little Yeerk who should travel, and have no choice... Will you ask the Visser to give you a portable Kandrona? Will you rent it? And how will you hide it from your host's wife and children?!
Not so easy...

[CounterInstinct]

So, instead of doing that, why not just invest your children and wife and get away with it.?

So, instead of doing that, why not just invest your children and wife and get away with it.?

ohh, thats harsh dude... lolz *karma +1*

[Dameg]

I think many of them did it... ^_^' But if you were a Yeerk, would you really like to have a child host? And if you were a Visser, would you really like to have an army of children-Controllers?

[Myitt]

No one suspects the children, right? 

I think in #41 Cassie's Yeerk has a briefcase thing with small single use Kandronas...it could work, if you found a small pool to go to, I doubt Yeerks can carry a whole pool with them haha x3

[Vivi9087]

Well also take into consideration that the yeerks didn't want to take over all of humanity.  If you remember when they tried to start WWIII they were planning on letting us nearly wipe us out.  They only needed about a billion or so human controllers, they didn't want all of us. 

[morfowt]

actually, I don't think it was a billion. I think he said a few million would be enough.

[Dameg]

Yeah, it's true... so you think they just didn't invade the other countries, but wanted to destroy them later? Why not ^_^
(but too late, in my fanfiction they went to England too)

[Myitt]

They probably were like kids in a candy store.  So many humans....so little time!

It makes sense that they wouldn't care if many humans were wiped out, but I like to think they wanted to have roots in as many industrialized nations as possible, if nothing else to try and get to their leaders.  What's the end goal?  To have little to no resistance, and control of military and political power is a good first step.  They probably would want more than enough hosts than too few, as well...though lots of humans could be killed and they'd still have plenty...
