Caldari are "A political" and aren't interested in cultural differences. Only trade, research and advances in technology. Not changing another culture to replicate their own or control another people to create some sort of empire.
The war with the Gallente is personal and has a lot to do with their betrayal and destruction of the Caldari's home world. The Gallente started the war. The Amarr started their war by conquering and enslaving the Minmatar (personal).
There are 2 victims and 2 perpetrators. A good question would be; why are the Minmatar and Caldari at war? The Gallente attacked the Caldari. Same can be said about the Amarr.
The Caldari are not religious and seem accepting of all cultures as long as trade is not disrupted.
All things considered, it would seem the more prudent course of action that the Caldari should have been alligned with the Minmatar. Add to the fact that the Amarr are the biggest threat in the universe being the largest empire by far. The Caldari being the smallest would find the Minmatars war against the Amarr to be beneficial from an economical standpoint.
I assume the Minmatar allied with the Gallente based on notions of freedom and democracy. Humm... just thinking out loud here....

Minmatars was basicaly fully enslaved by Amarr). There is too many events and ations basicaly similar.

The Caldari and Minmatar are a lot closer than many would like to believe.
I forgot the story, but the leader of a Caldari corporation (Ishukone?) was a very close friend to one of the a Republic's leaders, and even gave him a Vitoc antidote.
Another example of this:

That's just it.
However after further investigation it seems as if 2 other important factors come into play that I was unaware of.
1. All of the empires have some sort of connection to the Jove (Those mysterious uber powerful beings) except the Amarr [Who were brutally crushed by the Jove in a huge war]
2. The Amarr are sort of using the Caldari to keep the Gallente in check as the Amarr see the huge economical might of the Gallente as a very potent threat to their own equally large empire. The Gallente have a near limitless supply of Minmatar fighters they can train.
However it seems to me all the more reason the Caldari should ditch the Amarr and take up arms with the Minmatar. The problem would be that the Minmatar are allies of our most hated enemy - the Gallente. Also the Caldari do share a very close bond with the Khanids, specifically Khanid II - IIRC.

The Caldari are less inclined toward moral outrage. The Minmatar played the victom card to gain Gallente support. Once the Minmatar allied with the Gallente the Caldari had little choice by to join with the Amarr.
If the Minmatar had not joined the Gallente the Caldari might have allied with them, but the reasons would have been economic or tactical. The Caldari are not so easily manipulated through righteous indignation.

What?.....
Gallente and Caldari where close.. They even jointly discovered the Jump gate technology... Even Caldari and Gallente Prime planets where in the same solar system...
The Caldari Corporations where secretly colonizing Solar systems and military bases and building private armies of ships.
When a gallente Exploration ship wondered into a secret Caldari colonization a Federation wide investigation went on and the caldari secret colonies and military strength where quickly brought into question.. The Caldari Corporations didn't want to operate under a democratic governing business body and made a stand...

The Caldari are aligned with just about everybody else. Even though there is tension between the Gallante and Caldari, their economies are very closely linked and they each have stakes in eachothers economies. Also the reason the Amarr are aligned more closely with the Caldari is because they have an implied military alliance; the Caldari help the Amarr from fighting the Minmatar and Gallante in a 2 v. 1 situation. The Caldari are also the greatest exploiters of Minmatar assets and also sell weapons to the Ammatar in exchange for resource rights. So if you think the Gallante are using the Minmatar, then you haven't considered how bad the Caldari would be.

So the Gallente got to play the benevolent savior card.

Isn't that pretty much it? The Min sided with the Gal and therefore are the Cal's enemy by proxy.
I'd really like to see the minor races (bloodlines) brought in as their own separate factions. Khanid, Ammatar et al could change the alignment. Oh well, ace in the hole for CCP.

And this is preciecly why I love CCP. The lore is awesome! Space politics at its finest!
I swear I would forget CCP`s shortcommings in DUST overnight if the whole lore aspect was explored further, if we could have some sort of stake in it from a game play perspective.
FW was the start of this, but it was lack lustre, so much more could be done. Hell right now we are only talking about the major races and players.
We could further delve into the world with all of the pirate factions..... [Potential or what!].

The Amarr Navy utilized a single squadron to attack the Jove at the Battle of VakGÇÖAtioth. Jove also had a spy in the Amarr Empire and were thus able to make a perfect counter.
Also this post has striking similarity to your OP (EDIT just found it funny, nothing more)

OP makes a good point but from a strict RP point of view, Caldari would side with the Amarr anyway, a strong empire that already has long and ancient trade routes, a massive stellar fleet that needs constantly upgrades, the strong ties with the Khanid Kingdom etc.
Amarr has more money to spend. |

Realistically the Minmatar are heavily under the influence of the Gallente, which has been a real source of conflict between the Minmatar and Gallente. The Gallente are just as culturally imperialist toward them as they were toward the Caldari back in the day. That's probably the main reason for the state of war between the Caldari and Minmatar, they're effectively Gallente in terms of policy because they aren't that independent. |

The Amarr have been respectfully treating the so-called "enslaved" Minmatar even before the war as well as freeing them. It was the Minmatar who started the violence.
Also the Caldari are allies with the Amarr because the Caldari need the Amarr to hold of the Gallente. The Minmatar are allies with the Gallente because the Gallente feared the Amarr's sized so manipulated the Minmatar into rebelling to create internal conflict within the Amarr Empire so as to weaken their immediate power to be more on par with the Gallente's own.
In fact most Gallente citizens don't even like the Minmatar, as evident with many recent news stories, and when you look historically when the Gallente and Amarr first met most Gallente citizens were actually fascinated with the Amarr and admired their civilization. It wasn't until the Gallente Federation's "elected" royalty began to fear their people thinking their is no need for their federation that they started a massive propaganda push to portray the Amarr as evil slavers that the citizens interest and liking to the Amarr vanquished.
Mail me in game if interested in learning about the Amarr Empire and serving them in Faction Warfare.
Amarr Victor!
