EVE General Discussion

You racist!

So far... I have seen good Ammarians , with their high class elegance and religions theme zealot clothing and designs.
I have seen stylish Gallantes with their french looking bedroom eyes and executive smart man and woman facial structures.
I have seen the Minimartarians with their STRONG will determined gaze, strong square jaws and complex of raw power and struggle for freedom.

However.... I can't really connect with the Caldarians .. I mean.... they don't even have a theme , they aren't fighting for anything , they are just...well.... there.

Anyone feeling the same?

CALDARI
A state built on corporate capitalism, the Caldari State is run by a few megacorporations
which divide the state between them, controlling and ruling every aspect
of society. Each corporation is made up of thousands of smaller companies, ranging
from industrial companies to law firms. All land and real estate is owned by a
company which leases it to the citizens, and government and policing are also
handled by independent companies.
Although this gives the corporations dictatorial powers,
they are just as bound by Caldari customs and laws as the
individual, and the fierce, continual competition between
the corporations ensures a healthy, consumer-based
social environment, which benefits everyone.
While the Caldari State may not be nearly as big as that of
the Gallenteans, let alone the Amarrians, they are still
universally feared and admired. Their economy is strong,
and their military might parallel to that of the larger
empires. Coupled to the fact that they are more
unscrupulous than the Gallenteans and more combative than the Amarrians, this
makes them in many ways the most meddlesome of all the empires. As most Caldari
trade is conducted by individual companies rather than the State itself, this makes it
difficult for the other empires to deal with them at a political level. If a company is
found guilty of unethical business dealings, it simply disappears into its parent
corporation, and before long another one appears to take its place. But if a Caldari
company is threatened, the whole corporation and often the whole State backs it up
with full force.
Caldari society is steeped in military tradition. As a people,
its members had to fight a long and bloody war to gain
their independence, and even had to surrender their home
planet to their hated enemies, the Gallenteans. It was at
this time that the corporations established themselves as
the driving force behind creating and maintaining the new
Caldari State. Even if the Caldari have not engaged in war
for many decades, they still strive to be at the cutting edge
of military technology and their vessels, weapons and
fighting methods are inferior to none but the enigmatic
Jovians.
To curb their aggressive tendencies, the Caldari actively pursue and sponsor a range
of sporting activities. Many of these are bloody, gladiatorial-like competitions, while
others are more like races. But whatever the sport, the Caldari love betting on the
outcome, making gambling a massive industry in the State.
The Caldari State offers its citizens the best and the worst in living conditions. As
long as you keep in line, do your job, uphold the laws and so forth, life can be fairly
pleasant and productive. But for those who are not cut out for this strict, disciplined
regime life quickly becomes intolerable. They lose their respect, family, status,
everything, and the only options left to them are suicide or exile. Although not
xenophobic as such, the Caldari are very protective of their way of life and tolerate
only those foreigners that stick to the rules

Gallente/Caldari once were the same.
