Tribe Dissolve

A Tribe Dissolve occurs when one or two tribes are dissolved before the merge and either its members are absorbed into the other tribes, or the remaining castaways shuffled into the remaining tribes. It is a special variant of the Tribe Switch.

Types of Tribe Dissolve

 * Absorbed - a type of dissolve where a tribe's remaining members are scattered between the other remaining tribes. Seen in, , and.
 * Conquered - a type of absorption where the remaining members of the losing tribe go directly to the other tribe. Seen in.
