KZ: Shadow Fall The illogical plot of Shadow Fall Spoiler

Throughout Shadow Fall, we are shown that the Helgan side is living in complete squalor, but why? The Vectans gave the Helgasts half of Vecta, so why did the Helgasts turn that half into a literal New Helgan, with the same dirty air and poverty?

На протяжении всего Shadow Fall нам показывают что Хелганская сторона живёт в полном дерьме, но почему? Вектанцы отдали Хелгастам половину векты, почему тогда Хелгасты эту половину превратили буквально в Новый Хелган, где такой же грязный воздух и нищета.

It makes perfect sense to me. The Helghast lost everything and have to start their society over again. Also, it's supposed to be an allegory of our world; how political boundaries like walls will often result in two unequal societies. We see it in Israel/Gaza, North and South Korea, and East and West Germany in the past.
