Intergalactic Summit

To the Interested Public,

you may rest assured that all necessary measures are taken that this academic exchange will be an interesting and stimulation experience for all participating parties. The Khanid Kingdom has always been open to interstellar exchange and is very experienced in dealing with the dynamics of interstellar interaction.

The measures taken include appropriate security procedures and screenings, continuous monitoring and evaluations. In addition, a manual of proper conduct will be handed out to the arriving Elusenian exchange students, and special tutors from the ducal seminary’s missionary department will be assigned to help the students acculturating. The failure to obey local law will be persecuted without recognising any special rights and cultural differences.

Notwithstanding ill-advised voices, Her Grace the Duchess is convinced that the exchange programme between the Duchy of Palas and the Cooperative Republic of Elusenia—in a spirit of mutual interest and the desire for knowledge and education—will be a success and add to the spreading of the Word.

Yours sincerely,
Morijah d’Hanguest
Chancellor of the Ducal Council

P.S.: Ms Shahni, we would like to point out that the current director of the Societas Imperialis Sceptri Coronaeque, Ms Nicoletta Mithra, is a University of Caille alumni. Since you had nothing more to say, we are sure that you find new employment in a—pertaining to your views—less corrupted environment.

If you choose to call educated and experienced feedback "ill advised voices" then the manners of Her Grace's hall are much reduced of late.

I actually attended a six month duty rotation in the Kingdom.

My, now that is more like my recollection of courtly Kingdom manners. My apologies for the misunderstanding.

Or perhaps I have better things to do than monitor all of your posts constantly.

As for your argument: you are comparing fedos to slaver hounds.

Heideran's treaties were made when the Empire was not in a state of war with the Federation. The incursion into Kor-Azor that you mention merely highlights the fact that you are inviting nationals from a state that is at war with the Amarr into Khanid territory. Neither is comparable to starting an exchange program in the middle of a war.

Also, intellectual exchange is only a virtue when you propogate good ideas through the intellectual exchange. When false ideas are propogated it become

Do you really think that talking on this cesspool is my primary duty?



We are at war. Attacks across the borders of a nation at war are not exactly rare; sometimes those attacks succeed. Your argument of treason carries no water and shows a basic ignorance of how war works.



If you were propagating the word rather than heretical lies, it would be a start towards you acting your station. I expect, however, that you will continue acting like a spoiled brat who wants attention and will continue to embrace any scheme or heresy that might cause her to receive attention.

Just so long as someone keeps the trimming shears handy...

Now everyone calm down, it's an academic exchange. Surely, if we're considering the current skirmishes and legislated warfare a true war, then peace is only going to come through understanding. While, on the one hand, it may give people bad ideas in both groups, it might be that they absorb the benefits of each others' cultures and ignore their ills. All things are possible when people take their education seriously.

I have high hopes for these exchanges. If cultural exchange was impossible and worthy only of the axe, I would have lost my head years ago.

The cries of distress at this idea from the Amarr in this thread are enough to make me want this endeavor to succeed.

The last time I checked that was true, the same way it is true in Mandate space.



If I understand correctly sir, Heideran did not work to introduce Gallente ideas into Amarrian Culture. And allying with them would go against that ?

You do not need to introduce the ideas of a culture in yours to be allied with someone. Would you say that the Caldari culture impregnated the Amarrian one, following your logic ? I find the idea disturbing. Are you sure of what you seem to imply ?

I think you are misreading my comments. I believe we agree.

Odelya was the one suggesting that Heideran's treaty with the Gallente was equivalent to her sponsoring Gallente scholars to come to Amarr and study Amarrian religion like a bug under a microscope.
