Never. At least as they don't try to mess with the king of the jungle.
I'm a Born Gallante. Half Minmatar, half Intaki. Naturally I revere the Minmatar. Though, the Republic needs to stop trying to consume our space. Crap like that is not going to fly.
Ah yes, as long as they willingly submit to the Gallentes will and not challenge their decisions the Minmatar will be left alone.
Tell me how treating them as dogs wearing choke collars you will pull at the slightest provocation is supposed to foster good will among them or how supporting such actions in anyway reveres the Minmatar people or their culture or even how forcing others to abdicate to your will does fly in the face of the "freedom" the Gallente like to spout.
Were you my child and defending the actions of the federation and how they go against the ideals you all supposedly hold so dear I would be embarrassed and deeply saddened, doubly so if I were your Minmatar parent
The Federation does not want to control the Republic. The Federation wants to cooperate with the Republic. A mutual alliance. Invading each other is not beneficial. Also, the Federation does not try to dominate them either, in fact the Federation stands idle at the fact that there is free trade between the State and Republic.
What the Republic does is their business. Yes, the Federation gives them funding for common military ventures in Amarr-Minmatar Space, a project I was personally involved with. The only reason we do this is because we want a lot of things done, yet the Federal Military cannot just invade. Instead we have opted to assist the Minmatar to achieve common goals. We are not forcing them to fight for us, no, they were already involved in a struggle and we simply want to enhance their advances.
Though, the reason we support the Minmatar is because we see a lot of our ideals in them. They have a wide diversity of ethnic origins, religions and beliefs.
I do not understand why people think the Federation bosses the Republic around. The have consistently done things we did not like, mostly economic ventures with pirates or some Caldari companies over Gallante Companies. If we really controlled the Republic we would have exploited their resources by now.
What you speak is lies, slander.
