Based on the assumption that the Hivers didn't start pushing into Spica until about 490 and continued moving spinward until they bumped into the Solomani border in 704. The Hiver's expansion would have been at a more leisurely and orderly pace, since they weren't as worried about creating colonies behind an already established border in order to prevent another large polity from expanding a la the Sollies.
At first the Hiver's expansion into Spica was limited to ss P and O and the rimward end of ss L because because of the J-2 route back into Phlask sector. Also, this would help support the expansion into Langere from Drakken.
After the Hivers reached the Sollie border in 704 and were thwarted from further expansion spinward, they started expanding coreward into ss K and L to secure their influence on Delta Quadrant. They also were looking for new markets and trade partners among the neutral systems in Beta Quadrant.
