A large group of people were united as one being with the sole goal of creating a new, safer place to live. Their combined wills, their dedication to this goal, were enough to allow this entity to become an originator.
As individuals, they have only a fraction of the power of an originator, but when combined their power is on par with other originators of their level (Blue, Gold, Purple, etc.)
They generally stay separated, since as a single entity they can't really do much, with everyone wanting different things and having different opinions and priorities. Were there some sort of threat to their world though, they would likely combine once more under the shared goal of protecting their world.
