Huh, of my knowledge though the Amarr don't hit their slaves or anything of that nature, simply give them labors. Still kind of an abusive relationship I suppose, but it has worked. Outside of the Gallente meddling with the Minmatar, all other races have gone through this right of passage and since have been able to live in peace within the Empire. You can't really say for the Federation, the other expansionists. Many Intaki wish to secede, and Caldari already have. You could say the same about the Minmatar, but again that wasn't on their own accord but from outside influences by the Federation who had their own agenda.

Hey can somebody send me a link to all this lore. I always find pieces of it everywhere but I want a full on book that I can read. I love the background stories.

Yet you choose to focus on the negative acts?

EVElopedia is the place to go it has all the general content on all of the factions as well as the chronicles/ short stories CCP puts out to support the lore.

I don't see any positive acts from the amarr

You the man! Or woman...thanks!

The Federation because we are the defenders of freedom, and we have the power to back it up. The Caldari had always been filled with traitorous blood, and the Amarr's slavery clashes with our sense of morality.

Firstly, ships do not look good..... they look terribly but not as bad as the Minmatar ships, secondly win, sure you do comparatively more players support the Gallente over the other races so winning through numbers while commendable is not admirable, thirdly yes REAL MEN armour tank!

Okay I'm reading about the Acadmey of Aggressive Behavior. Are the jove still around?

I love the look of the Gallente ships; they are sleek, sexy and look futuristic. I don't like rust so Minmatar ships are not for me. I do like some of the Caldari ships and the Amarr.....well they're Amarr.

Why do you think that more people are Gallente? Is it because they are first in line.

Gotta love how some people read a few things on the EVE wiki and suddenly think they know eve lore.




About hitting slaves:

"The guard wound his arm back and struck again. Sparks exploded from the slaveGÇÖs back, and this time he crumpled to the ground in a heap. The cauterized wounds intersected the previous marks, creating an approximate visage of the Sign. The beauty of the Faith, the guard thought, is that it offers a path for the unborn. Paradise was the exclusive birthright of pureblooded Amarrians, but for all othersGÇöincluding the Matari wretch lying at his feetGÇösalvation had to be earned. Only through suffering can the unborn rise from the shadow of death to gain the blessing of immortality. I might yet walk in heaven with this one, the guard thought. His subservience speaks mountains of his quest for forgiveness."

About the Intaki: Currently, even with the turmoil in past years regarding seperatist movements, most Intaki still wish to remain federation citizens. Much of the anti-federation sentiment comes from security matters long ago that unfortunately forced the creation of the Intaki Syndicate, which then became heavily tied into illegal practices.

About the Federation and the Minmatar: The Gallente aided the Minmatar rebellion by providing them with weapons, which the Jove actually delivered. The entire rebellion was a convergence of agendas: the Minmatar breaking their bonds, the Gallente aiding their rebellion partly for the cause of freedom, and partly to weaken the Amarrians who were on the verge of more 'reclaiming', and the Jove who needed to fight the Enheiduanni, but also found great compassion for the Minmatar and the horrors they were enduring.

That is the problem with the Gallente. Always dreaming of the "beautiful" and proposed "democracy" instead of building fortitude, tradition and pride. What are exactly are they first in line for? Hopefully its for a gruesome death...

Also they meddle in the affairs of the other empires in the same way the Amarr do preach the word of God.

Amarr are egotistical asses, they force their religion on others and kill those who dont convert
Caldari only care about money, fighting for a profit is pretty lame. They were our brothers, now they are strangers fighting a lost cause
Minmatars are okay, they had a hard time but daddy gallente got your back...just stop making anti armor weapons
Gallente because you're free to do whatever they want and they're the most technologically advanced race, they fight oppressive asses who think they're hot stuff

So Ive been reading a bit more lore and some responses in this thread and the Gallente just sound so damn self righteous all the time and dont even have a religion like the Amarr as an excuse for it

Where did you gather that bunch of lies? The Amarr only engage in war with those who threaten their way of life, as do the other empires. They don't destroy civilizations, they assimilate them. They are not the only race to partake in assimilation, look at your own Gellente with the Intaki and Jin-Mei. All the empires have expanded and taken over other civilizations to become as expansive as they are now.

This thread asked for peoples opinions on why they chose a faction, you should leave the role play stuff to threads in the role play section, in an out of character thread your just gunna be seen as a male reproductive organ RPing amarr.

Gallente feels American and im American sooooo :P plus I think they seem more heroic than others and I like being a good guy
