People with money and means are able to purchase territories. This is known. And allowing transfers onto a new world facilitates for a larger breadth of player levels at start. This is known as well. These new worlds are to help provide new places for those stuck on large, overpopulated worlds and for those who are starting and don’t want to wait in a queue either. These new worlds are not intended to provide a “fresh start” or pristine experience. We have been pretty upfront with this fact.

If you want the territory, the game allows you to declare war (or claim another available unclaimed territory). We will have more news on “fresh start” worlds soon, which we have also been pretty upfront with.
