The Saiyans we know today are survivors of a lost age. Planet Vegeta was only one part of a much bigger empire that once stretched across the stars. Most fans remember Vegeta as the “Prince of all Saiyans,” but few ever stop to ask — what happened to the rest of his empire?
Dragon Ball has only shown us small glimpses of Saiyan history. Yet, there are signs that many planets connected to the Saiyans still exist somewhere out there, waiting to be rediscovered. These forgotten worlds could hold the key to the next chapter of Dragon Ball Super.
A Royal Empire That Spanned the Stars
Before Planet Vegeta’s destruction, the Saiyan race ruled many worlds under their King. These weren’t peaceful planets — they were conquered territories, taken by strength and blood. The Saiyans were hired by Frieza’s army, but long before that, they had already built their own mini-empire across the galaxy.
Legends say that King Vegeta wasn’t the first ruler to unify the Saiyans. The earliest Saiyan clans were spread across several planets, not just one. Over time, those planets were either lost, destroyed, or abandoned during wars that predated even Frieza’s rise.
That means some ancient Saiyan colonies could still exist in the Dragon Ball universe — maybe forgotten by both Frieza and Beerus.
The Mystery of Planet Sadala
Planet Sadala is the original homeworld of the Saiyan race. It was destroyed in Universe 7 long ago because of internal wars among the Saiyans themselves. But Universe 6 still has its version of Planet Sadala — a peaceful and thriving Saiyan society led by King Sadala and fighters like Cabba, Caulifla, and Kale.
The existence of Planet Sadala in another universe proves something big. The Saiyans were meant to exist across multiple worlds and timelines. So if one version survived, could there be others hidden in the vastness of Universe 7?
There might be ancient Saiyan colonies orbiting distant suns, waiting to be rediscovered by Vegeta or Goku in the future.
Vegeta’s Hidden Heritage
Vegeta has always carried the pride of his people. But what if part of his royal bloodline is connected to other Saiyan dynasties across space? Imagine if King Vegeta’s ancestors once ruled over several planets — each with its own branch of Saiyan warriors.
These lost Saiyans might have evolved differently. Some could have adapted to planets with heavier gravity, giving them unmatched strength. Others might have learned to live without constant battles, developing spiritual powers similar to Ultra Instinct or God Ki.
If Vegeta ever finds one of these hidden worlds, he might meet Saiyans even stronger than himself — or worse, those who reject his claim to the throne.
The Ancient Saiyan War
Saiyan history is filled with destruction. The reason Planet Sadala was destroyed was because of a massive civil war. The Saiyans fought each other until their own world crumbled. But what if that war didn’t just happen on one planet?
Some legends hint that this conflict spread across multiple worlds. The strongest warriors of the time could destroy moons with a single blast. If that’s true, there might be destroyed planets and fragments still floating in deep space — the graveyards of that forgotten war.
Those ruins could hold technology or power sources even Bulma can’t understand. Maybe this is where the “God of Saiyans” legend first began.
The Secret of the God of Saiyans
We know about the Super Saiyan God from Battle of Gods. A warrior born when pure-hearted Saiyans combined their energy. But what if the original God came from a lost Saiyan world?
Imagine a planet where Saiyans learned to control both rage and peace. They could have trained under divine beings or ancient mentors before the time of Beerus. That would explain how the Saiyan race already knew about godly transformation before Goku did.
If Goku and Vegeta ever visit one of these ancient planets, they could learn new god-level techniques or discover the true origin of Saiyan power.
Could Beerus Know the Truth?
Beerus once said he had heard of the Super Saiyan God long before meeting Goku. That means someone told him that story — maybe even a Saiyan from a lost planet.
It’s possible that Beerus destroyed Planet Vegeta to erase the traces of something more dangerous. Maybe the royal family once tried to find or revive those lost worlds, and Beerus stopped them before they could succeed.
Whis might know more than he admits. The Angels have existed for eons, and they oversee many universes. They could easily know about these Saiyan colonies and their forgotten gods.
The Future of Saiyans in Dragon Ball Super
Dragon Ball Super is expanding faster than ever — new gods, new universes, new threats. But one story arc fans want to see is about Saiyan history. If Toei or Toyotarou ever explore the “Lost Worlds of Vegeta Empire,” it could become one of the most exciting arcs since the Tournament of Power.
Imagine Goku and Vegeta traveling to ancient Saiyan planets, discovering new warriors and uncovering the truth about their origin. It’s not just about strength anymore — it’s about destiny.
The Saiyans started as conquerors, became survivors, and now they might evolve into protectors of the multiverse.
Final Thoughts
The story of the Saiyans isn’t over. It’s just hidden among the stars. The lost planets of Vegeta’s empire could hold answers about their power, their gods, and their purpose.
If Dragon Ball Super ever decides to explore this forgotten history, we might see the greatest evolution of the Saiyan race — one that connects their violent past with a divine future.
Vegeta pride might finally lead him not to conquest, but to discovery.
