Some people have an interest in knowing more about the lore, some prefer to focus on their shooting, and others like to make fun of roleplayers, forgetting that they play a videogame of immortal soldiers with high-tech suits that shoot overheating plasma at each other online.
If you-¦ve been following the news, or at least the major Caldari Prime event, you know that the Gallente vs Caldari friction was a major focus on the New Eden lore, and now with Heth new status of traitor, things will probably cool down on those actors.
Wich brings us to Amarr x Minmatar.
Read this excellent piece on the storyline that will be advanced soon.
New Eden is not only about blowing things up, if that is your wish.
A preview:
The youngest of the four major empires, the Minmatar Republic has only been independent from the Amarr Empire for a bit more than a century.
Free of the Amarr, they spent many years under heavy influence from the Gallente, who both helped them win their independence and establish their parliamentary republic government, but after their partial success in the Elder War they have undergone a great deal of upheaval.
The current leader of the Republic, Maleatu Shakor, backed by the Elder Fleet, took control after the collapse of the Midular government and abolished the unpopular Minmatar parliament, then began the process of building a new government based on tribal lines. After nearly five years of delays, that council got underway in February, following the much maligned QA module Tempest Tribal Issue live event and literally years of delays.
If, as we were told at FanFest, the next arc of the storyline is likely to focus on the Amarr and the Minmatar, then the results of the tribal council are likely to be the catalyst for whatever ends up happening with the Republic.
Unlike the Amarr houses, the leaders of the seven tribes are a bit undefined, and the tribes themselves tend to be less led than driven, so discussing the actual tribal chiefs is not as easy as the Amarr heirs.
Instead, what I'm going to do here is talk about the issues that are likely to be brought up during this reshuffling of the Minmatar deck and where you'll likely see the various tribes make their play. |

They won their freedom at the cost of their true independence to another great empire during a time when their true masters were preoccupied in battle against a technologically superior race.
Keep posting this is always awesome to see. Lore should be pushed and appreciated in a world like New Eden where there is so much more than just war and ISK.
I prefer to call 4 "Factions" since everyone is a type of government.
Minmatar are survivors. It doesn-¦t matter what you try to do, we will prevail.

Crushing a Minmatar Skull into Dust
or...
Breaking their will in slavery
Apparently crushing our skulls, because our will is not broken. Ironic that was what the last space monkey said... now he is shining my boots with his tongue; for he has no hands 
Your BDSM roleplay is of no interest for me.
How is that Royal Heir that mistreated the Minmatar?
Oh yeah, he got killed. |

I post a lot with the Lore and the News, when i found this compilid text, it made easier. If i find something written, i-¦ll post it.
I usually start the posts with [NEWS], [EVENT], [LORE] .
