Mssr. Mokk, this is why we in the Sixth Empire seek to strengthen and reform Amarr. It can ill afford to be weakened and divided by today's factious and corrupt leadership. There are simply too many foes waiting in the wings for the largest empire of New Eden to falter. A misstep could prove disastrous to the Empire, and if they falter, what of the rest of the systems and peoples? Will the divisive Matari bring people together? And if not them, then certainly not the Caldari, driven by profit as they are. The Gallente, my own blood, move too slowly and in too scattered a manner to respond to a serious threat. Only the Amarr Empire retains the decisive nature, unburdened by committees and boardroom politics, to respond to an unholy force such as the Drifters. This is why they have been singled out. If the corruption continues, Amarr is too weak to stand. And if they fall, so does all New Eden. This is why we work so diligently to bring about a reformed, stronger Empire.

I look forward to working with our future Emperor/Empress after the succession trials conclude. God willing, all of today's Amarrian people may see the light and freedom that the Sixth Empire enjoys. And with them as a beacon of light, all may one day bask in it.

Bringing the people of New Eden together under any nation is possibly the most nonsensical drivel I've read all day, and I frequent a lot of capsuleer oriented fora. Humanity is divisive and separate by nature and pragmatism both, for good reason. Diversity is a key ingredient in any significant progress for humanity, in matters of culture, technology, science and spirituality. This does drive conflict, and conflict in return drives progress, and overall humanity is better off for it. We Matari have known this for longer than any of our nations have even dreamed of leaving the gravity wells, with Tribes and Clans representing that diversity of cultures, bloodlines and strengths.

Should any actual threat to New Eden arise, it'd be far better countered by a diverse humanity that can attack the problem from different angles and perspectives, as well as provide a far better understanding of the threat as it'd be viewed from many angles and with different cultural and technological filters applied.

Of course, a culture that is so heavily focused on subjugation, destruction and enslavement of all other cultures, perspectives and even bloodlines won't be particularly prone to grasp this notion. It is unfortunate, but something the rest of us in New Eden simply has to deal with as none of us (barring the extreme nutcase outliers) actually seek the eradication of the Empire, as we actually do recognize the worth of that diversity.

That is of course, if you actually believed their own public image, which they don't. The Imperials aren't stupid enough to think they are any more unified or united than the other nations. It's simply too publicly displayed in their internal struggles and bickering, behind the false front of cultural and religious unity that they themselves know is entirely transparent to anyone with a brainstem.

Recognize this 'sixth empire's' words for what they are. More noise to distract the dim.

In reality, they know as well as the rest of us that unity of the diverse is the key to progress. They just want to instill the illusion that it has to be under the Empire to work, in the hopes that the rest of New Eden doesn't find UNITY without them.

The Drifter didn't even say anything. For all we know, the Drifters might just hate religion in general and figured that the Amarr Empire is anathema to them. Or maybe the Amarr Empire snubbed on the Drifter's toes some time ago, which the Amarr Empire told no one about, and the Drifters are taking revenge.

We still do not enough facts to draw a conclusion. As it is now, everything we have to say about the Drifter motives is purely speculation and should not be treated as the indisputable truth until we can find some actual evidence or hear of it from the Drifters themselves.

From where I stand, I suspect that your conclusion is drawn less from actual evidence and more from your dislike for the Amarr Empire. You are letting bias colour your perception of the truth. We still do not actually know the truth.
