I will link an old thread of mine which describes pretty well the idea behind my character.

Gallente are originarily French people. |

When I created my DUST merc, I went with the same princible, but my character has since then evolved into an Intaki freedom fighter who opposes the Gallente. It's quite interesting.
Intaki Syndacate is not supported by the Gallente Federation and there have been battles between the Intaki and the rest of the Gallente, so it does make sense  |

Gallente are originarily French people. OK I don't see why everyone cannot grasp this concept. I'M WELL AWARE THE GALLENTE ORIGINATED IN EUROPE, BUT their ideals of liberty and justice for all (which is in the AMERICAN Pledge of Allegiance) is an AMERICAN way of thinking therefore they COME OFF as AMERICAN. Broken down enough for you now?
lol hey, hey, no need to be p***ed, I'm a peaceful Achura, not an autarchic Deteis
Anyway, you probably think as liberty and justice as american ideals because you're american (I suppose), but many countries have a strong representative concept of these ideals as well:
Libert+¿, Egalit+¿, Fraternit+¿.

Sounds Gallente, doesn't it?  |

Broken down enough for you now? France went through its own revolution where they fought for those very same ideals, so it definitely not an exclusively American way of thinking. Libert+¬, +¬galit+¬, fraternit+¬, and all that. EDIT - beaten!
LOL I anticipated you by just few seconds!
EDIT: High 5! |
