The four Tau's have become famous, not only for their actions during boarding of the second Faragaut class ship, but also as a symbol of a possible coexistence with humanity.
Approximately 600,000 Tau's and humans where lost during the rebellion on planets, most being civilians attempting to fight for their freedom.
