Yeah! They labeled me as one of the most corrupt nations in the region!
And I am, but let's ignore that for now for the sake of righteous indignation.
Corrupt?! Let's see how corrupt they say I am after I shoot the first batch of investigators in the streets!
I knew it! You are pretty corrupt xP
*whispers*
By the by... If you're interested in bumping yourself 20 some ranks up I might know a guy or two who could help, for the right amount of cash, of course. Oh! I also accept sexual favors as payment *wink* *wink*
Anyway... Hue, I need your help with something.. I'll tg you asap, when I get home :)
I'm not actually that corrupt. At least, I don't think so. This place is just racist.
How am I in 8th place for least corrupt?
I am literally a sleazy, hedonistic paradise.
You need to look who your competition is.
I may have rampant corruption, but it doesn't matter much. Having a government with no authority over anything but the military, what's a few pounds going to do? Choose who gets the arms contract?
You? B..but you're clean-fingered, right?
The Kiith government is clan-based. While the Expeditionary Force is (by comparison) singular in its leadership and chain of command, the various clans back home are all playing against one another and jockeying for position. The Kiith prefer to best one another at politics these days, but to be honest the Daiamid is the only thing keeping the various clan rivalries from going into (another) all out war.
This sort of environment breeds corruption, and the SI Amalgamate seems content to allow it to continue as long as it serves to further the peaceful counterbalance to said clan rivalries.
What is this... Au to mo bi le... Does it do something useful?
Having compiled information... curious, does everyone make them with wheels?
Ours are equipped with wine coolers and complimentary cheese wheels.
100% tax rates make people happy apparently.
They probably just won the lottery or something.
Or maybe they had a sudden epiphany and became happier because of it. :P
86th for most happy?! Are my people not happy enough?!
Time go find some weak xeno civilization and wipe them out. The stories of "glory and honour" against the "xeno threat" will be sure to bring smiles to the childrens' faces!
Turns out, you were the xenos all along!
-Story by M. Night Shamalamalon
Ehh, Xeno purges are so 2010... I mean overdone. I like my wars to have much more depth, tbh I don't expect that in reality anti xeno crusades would go well in the long run.. There are a-lot of aliens in the galaxy. Sides if you kill all of the aliens, who will you have hot space sex with ? (Go go captain Kirk).. That said, how many actual species/races do any of you have in your respective corners of the galaxy? (Including the founding Humans, I've got around 11ish..perhaps adding a 12th if I can think up of a neat concept.)
We've yet to come into contact with any alien life that has higher intelligence. Strange creatures, sure, but nothing greater than animals, insects and bacteria.
Also, realistically, there wouldn't be a crusade. As Jullin explained long ago, First Contact will likely result in mass extermination within a year or so. Launching asteroids at each other and so forth simply because of intense fear and mistrust. He said it much more eloquently, but you get the picture. Add to that disease(think about what the Europeans brought to the Americas) and it doesn't really leave room for much conventional conflict.
As for Kirk, it's laughable to believe an alien species would have the same reproductive organs as us. Why no one told him to remove his penis from their olfactory gland(or some such other thing) is beyond me.
Technically, there have been none thus far. There have been records of the government from yore printing official numbers of a race dubbed the "Pusats" or somewhat, but there has been no recollection of the planet having such inhabitants to be around, along with how several claims of such beings have just chalked up to being pour souls losing their way in the forests. The colonisation of a nearby planet is another good example in consideration of most of the technology brought over by the initial colony ship being completely wrecked during its crash into the bay now surrounded by the former capital city.
Wasn't here in 2010, so I wouldn't know. These days though, the Legion is really just fighting off pirates, supporting human separatists (think proxy wars) or defending other humans in other places throughout the galaxy. Gone are the days when we drove aliens out of territory through war. It's mostly a historical aspect of my nation.
Anyways in Legion space, we only have humans. I realize that space in general is huge, and the odd alien might wander in, but officially only Humanity is allowed in the Legion.
I've been gone for 3 years so I just now re-founded my colonies. But, most my colonies tech. are far apart century wise. We've observed different alien societies in our galaxy. Such as humans for example, we found them on our Space Telescopes using quantum computing in the year 1876 C.E. Of course computers for us have been around since 1755. To tell you the truth, we haven't interacted with any alien colony besides humans, and that was when a worm hole opened up for 5 years in my side of the galaxy. Between 1926 and 1931, we've sent a young explorer and engineer through the worm hole. This was before the great "Technological Singularity of 1944", so we ended up landing in 1627 Earth. Had a guy that was stuck there, after the worm hole closed.
Of course, thanks to advanced Dreigon genetic studies done in the early 19th century. We were able to unlock several different genes within our biology that allowed us to slow our metabolism, and rate of aging. Thus, allowing us to live longer.... We still don't know what happened to the poor lad back then centuries ago. He never contacted us, and we haven't received no radio contact. Anyways, all research and documents were lost during the great Nano-Swarm of 1997. When our own technology and machines turned against us. After that, our technology has been stagnate since.
>alien race
>using human calendar
Point exactly, our calendar system is a little different from most since we have been isolated from the Fatherland for over 3 centuries. So, we based it on Sandail's calendar. And, Sandail's is based on Earth's so... If its 2318 C.E. *Or 321 A.C. After Crash* Because, of the similarities in technology and Biology between Humans and Dreigon Kind.
Basically put, Sandail's alternate calendar *C.E.* is 304 years ahead of Earth's. Which I know is the same in regards to C.E.
humans ftw! >:I
