brody's bunch made Futura.
2000 years later they are (as stated in common descent) capable of nuclear war, and a little over 30 years before the episode the tensions betweent hem were pretty high.
threatening to wipe out young's descendants is about as big a revolution as you can have.

over time, having your country develop equally well as the mother country, and being able to point weapons at each other equally, says that brody's little walkout did develop into a solid community, not something that was just a bit of heat that was forgotten about. they did more than fine without young, or his people - they did well enough to challenge young's country.
And we still don't really know why that took place (damn kids wont get off his lawn?).

Keeper,
isn't it? if a chunk of whatever country you're in decided to set up it's own government, laws et cetera, you wouldn't call that a revolution? local, yes, but it IS a revolution.All plot and no character makes for a dull story...

if you've ever worked in a group where 2 people just don't get along, from day 1, then it's pretty uncomfortable for everyone there. but it's even worse when one person just doesn't get along with ANYbody in the entire group, and the tension will grow, sometimes despite any tries to fix it.
young stepped in to keep things civil, but he also hoped they were adult enough to get over it. do that a few times, realise that people aren't going to change, and it can be a bit too late to sit down to talk to them about it - just hope it doesn't get any worse. in this case, it obviously did.
the nukes wouldn't have come from the first, few generations, at least - they'd have taken time to get there. over that time, the two groups have plenty of time to come up with more reasons not to like each other. that;s their stories though - the kino diaries were mainly just the stories of the original settlers.

in the time allocated, it would have been impossible to accurately document 2000 years of history. not to mention that they'd have to hire people to play various parts.
use your imagination, or look around you. it really isn't difficult to think up a few reasons - and tbh, if the writers considered that, they probably thought the same. there doesn't need to be a factual story for everything that happened on novus, they showed the beginning and described the end result.

2. timing. also, while brody, young, and the rest of the original colonists were alive, they probably tried to stay apart a bit more. they'd have been able to find enough resources for basic civilisation without stepping on each others toes. growth and needs would have done more than young and brody to destabalise things.
