No the Gallente are not the most technologically advanced. Technically the Jove are, followed by, a this is debatable, the Caldari or Amarr.
And no the Gallente are not the Good Guys they are a right wing pseudo fascist police state able to hide this behind the ignorance of trillions of strung out junkies and media control.
I was totally with you Adamance until you went balls deep with the Anti-Gallente propaganda.
We're about as "good" as the Amarr or Minmatar.
Can't say much about the Caldari. Barely hear much from their government.

I call it as I see it and this is OOC...you want democratic hope in New Eden go talk to the Minmatar.....and they don't even really practice Democracy any more....... You want hope and unity you talk to the Amarr.
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CALDARI?

You want hope and unity you talk to the Amarr. BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CALDARI? They don't want to unify. Just be left alone. It's also not propaganda look deep into the lore and you will find so very interesting things that would put most people off of the Gallente. State and Police Censorship. Drug Culture and abuse in younger members of society. Widespread religious natures inclusive of Gallentean's practising the Amarr Faith I mean come of I actively accept the Amarr do some crazy **** and roll with it.....still better than living in your fantasy world where you knowledge of your own faction equations to "Freeeeeedom" or "Democracy, Democracy......"
>.> You know I don't think we're perfect. Do love some freedom pie though. I mean. The Black Eagle for one. Then there's the actual culture and the extremes of it, although I wholly accept the extremes as long as it doesn't lead to the actual suffering of others. And while we're all about "liberty" and liberal ideas, we're pretty traditional when you think about it but that's not really a problem I guess. There's also arrogance and the encouragement of laziness(remember about the drones?). A lot of the Gallente people are also "social justice" whores to the point where they'll twist words and fake injustices to make themselves look better.
It's pretty on the outside but a lot of ugly on the inside. But tolerable and even loveable if you look past the ugliness.

There's still Minmatar slaves in the empire. And I guess you could consider the Caldari a dictatorship. It's not a negative though, as the people truly believe in it. Essentially they're ruled over by 8 megacorporations with thousands of sub-corporations under their blue umbrella.

Firstly, there are no good guys and bad guys. There is no black and white. Every faction has some skeletons in their closet and every faction could argue that they're doing the 'right thing'.
Though the issue is understandable....prior to one of the builds for EVE you couldn't even create "white" minmatar. Are you suggesting that black people are by default bad No, just pointing out and interesting tidbit that someone pointed out to me the other day. I found it interesting.
I believe there was no such thing as a Black Gallente too o.O. So weird considering they're a melting pot.

PS The gallente are the reason for drones Gallente are dampening experts for Ewar, but the cloak is Caldari isn't it? Dampening and cloaking are both about hiding, so how does that work with the lore? Edit: the reason I quoted you soldier was to ask, who has drones? All four races have their own drone tech, or just gallente?

The Caldari and Gallente are both focused on intelligence and counter intelligence.
I believe IWS, Iron Wolf Saber, said before how the Gallente do things a certain way while the Caldari do it the other way. Like. Notice how the Caldari scout have the best passive scans but the Gallente logistics have the best active scans. The Gallente are the best at passive dampening while the Caldari are great at cloaks. More than likely we'll get fleshed out more when it comes to stealth and intelligence-counter intelligence.

Caldari: Stereotypical 80s future concepts. Their one saving grace is their patriotism and honor. Literally this most uninspired gear ever... ...Never has angular and gunmetal gray looked good.
Gallente: Stereotypical modern future concepts. A very boring culture and govorment system. Their saving grace is their decent designs, the organic but yet high tech thing is nice.
Minmatar: They have the badass space junker/freedom fighter thing going on. Their ships and infantry gear have a "used future" look to them. Their govorment is simple, but yet interesting due to the use of tribal culture. Their culture itself is pretty cool too, they idolize strength and individuality, but yet place great importance on community and familial connections.
Amarr: Golden Heretic burners with an extreme religion, but yet a beautiful vision of a united mankind. Their goals and intentions are noble, but they often go to extreme lengths to reach them. They have a very interesting fuedal government system that merges the laws of man with the laws of god. Their culture itself is quiet and reserved, but the religion is loud and outspoken.
It's because the Gallente and Caldari aren't as fleshed out in the RP. Everyone picks up Amarr and Minmatar because their slaver-slave relationship, tribal system, and religious nature are sure bets for interesting topics. For the Gallete and Caldari you gotta dig deep. The good thing about them is that you can make up content with less worries of conflicts with popular lore.
