Much of the developing world was formerly in slavery, had their cultural identity erased, and had a religion forced on them. Not quite the same as the Amarr Minmatar conflict, but many countries like my homeland Haiti have experienced similar situation without the theocracy. |

Interestingly you are also a Minmatar, could that be the reason you picked Minmatar?
I did initially pick Minmatar because I relate to them, and I consider myself a Minmatar immigrant to the Gallente Federation. I can relate to the Gallente on an ideological level.
I couldn't decide between Minmatar and Gallente, I picked Minmatar because I'm hoping one day we'll have some facial customization and I wanted some cool dreadlocks and tattoos.
When we got racial merc quarters, i found the Minmatar one pretty crappy, so I started using a Gallente as my main playing character instead just because of beautiful merc quarters.
I don't even play on this character anymore, the only reason I haven't deleted is is because of how many threads I have favorited on the forums, and all these likes look pretty. |
