Perhaps in the future we could set aside those differences and combine into one prosperous nation. There would be no limit to their reach.
Those petty differences stem from entirely difference cultures, one demanding and invasive sense of control with the benefit on massive social liberties, the other simply wishing to be left alone and true to itself the cost of its social liberties.

I am not sure how one can stay true to themselves while having no social liberties. It is like a sculptor without a chisel.
The whole survives where the one gives on himself to the community selflessly.
I would dare say its the same in Amarrian culture. Where the faithful soul gives of themselves to the Faith or the Empire, our people flourish. We sacrifice those social liberties to live by a code we believe is true and just.
