Cowardice is the only way Caldari know how to fight.
Two centuries ago, following the attack on Nouvelle Rouvenor an extreme right-wing government grabbed the power reigns in the Gallente Federation and advocated a harsh response: bombing Caldari Prime and sending in troops to take control of the planet. As the Gallente war machine grinded into gear, the Caldari saw that it was impossible to try to fight the much larger Gallente Federation for control of Caldari Prime; instead, they started devising a plan to evacuate the Caldari population on the planet. For the plan to work, an evacuation window of at least one month had to be created by the Caldari Navy.
Two weeks passed; finally, the Caldari admiral Yakiya Tovil-Toba took matters into his own hands. He led the few dozen ships he commanded and jumped to Gallente Prime. Tovil-Toba played a game of cat-and-mouse with the Gallenteans for a whole week. Eventually only one of his ships remained: a badly damaged fighter-carrier. In his dying breaths, Tovil-Toba directed the huge vessel down towards Gallente Prime. Upon entering the atmosphere the ship broke into several burning pieces, killing all aboard.
Admiral Tovil-Toba and his crew sacrificed themselves in order for millions more Caldari to escape. To this day he is revered as a national hero, and his name is one of the first things every Caldari child learns. We fight in his memory.
o7 admiral. I don't expect a gallentian to understand fighting for freedom, much less sacrafise yourself for it and your country men, you fight to control.
When we sought to leave your federation you wanted us to behave like gallentians, told us to behave like gallentians. After you bombed our home world we gave you a response to your demands for surrender,

When we returned to our home world you surrendered to our demands.
Yet we are the cowards?
As to the op I believe the caldari drink ceremonial tea. Though I'm sure when they are betting on races they prefer some good rice beer or sake. |
