I've never seen anyone roleplay in-game. It seems to be something people just talk about on the forum.

So since we're on the forum, Amarr remind me of Americans (violent, religious weirdos), Minmatar is the Middle East (ditto) and Caldari/Gallente are two aspects of what I would consider to be the modern-day civilised world of Australia, Britain, Canada and parts of Europe.

Flame on! Big smile

So, basically the Gallente are descended from the ancient French (from Earth, pre-EVE collapse), and colonised Gallente Prime in Luminaire. They're the big democratic/hedonistic/hippy race that welcomes everyone in.

The squids--sorry, Caldari are the ungrateful, socialist heathens from Caldari Prime (also in the Luminaire system). They were originally part of the Gallente Federation, until they decided they wanted to leave. A Caldari terrorist attack on a Gallente underwater colony later and we were at war. A Caldari cap pilot made a suicide run into Gallente Prime's atmosphere in the middle of an orbital bombardment of Caldari Prime, and eventually the Squids and we froggies made up.

Fast forward a couple hundred years, and the squids invade Gallente space, take a planet in our HOME SYSTEM (yeah, bad on us Gallente, I know), and throw up a Titan in the same solar system as our race's HOME PLANET. They're currently led by a power-hungry factory worker who is blatantly anti-Gallente, and was party to the slaughter of hundreds of Gallente citizens in riots. Riots that were exacerbated by Tibus Heth, ignoring all attempts of President Foritain to get a peace going, throwing treaties back in our President's face.




....buuuuuut I don't ACTUALLY RP that much :P

just a big Gallente fan.

in case you DIDN'T notice :P

That's... not how I recall it going. You and the Calamari share a home system, and should act like it, not like children bitching over a favorite toy.

Also the Calamari are ungrateful, money-grubbing, capitalist heathens. Socialism involves generosity and caring for another that doesn't fit with their culture of corporate greed.
