Faction Lore Personality

I once read somewhere that CEO's with a military background are less profitable during stable economic times but incur less loss of profits during troubled economic times than CEO's without a military background.

Because of the study it was suggested that military CEO's are risk averse.

Given that line of thought, what do you think of the TR's military junta?

Is it a big suprise that Russia is mostly Terran Republic, Japan is Vanu Sovernginty, and now Egypt is New Conglomerate after Arab Spring, hey is that a hotspot over Syrian Arab Republic?

Devilz, you dont seem to of read my post.

If military minds are risk averse how do you think this dictated the actions of the TR coup?

Oxford writes

junta

noun

1a military or political group that rules a country after taking power by force: the country’s ruling military junta

Well there's your first mistake, the TR never came to power via force we are the democratically elected OVERLORDS of Auraxis.
So what I think is, Bad question

True. As much as I hate to agree with a TR. Remember Hitler was elected by the German people. Well,technically HE wasn't elected,but the Nazi party was elected to office,they then appointed Hitler to Chancelor,so yes,a Dictator can be elected.

That is what happened with the TR. We elected them,now we decided it was a mistake,so we will remove them by force. I guess in a way that would almost make the NC the Junta.

All in how you look at it I guess. One mans freedom fighter is another mans terrorist and all that.Look at the U.S. in Iraq,were we liberators,or invaders / Just depends on what side of the fence you are on when the bullets start to fly.

jsut remember, while you fight to remove us, whom was elected by the freedom of the people, your fighting against the freedom you claim to cling to.

The current TR leadership assasinated Connery and blew up the
Discovery 7.

They came to power by use of force.

Now answer the question plz if you're going to post.

These vicious and hurtful accusations are groundless and wholly untrue, they are no more than NC propaganda and filthy VS lies invented to undermine the rightful government of Auraxis and if you insist on perpetuating them then I must say good day to you sir.

These accusations are established lore on the wiki.

The TR junta is responsible for Connery's death and D-7's destruction and the death of her crew.

Look it up on the diary entry lore section.

EDIT: Now does anyone have anything to say on topic?

The Republic was legitimately in power before the Discovery 7 terrorist attacks, and it saddens us greatly to have to enforce a military regime to assure the survival of the mission. This does not, however, render our government illegitimate, and, even if it were so, we still represent the interests of the majority of the Auraxian colonies' population.

Therefore, the Republic is not a junta, it is the only legitimate governing body on Auraxis (and, for that matter, everywhere else for all we know). As such, it is reasonable to assume that we would be rather more conservative in our policies than the upstarts, as we do not make brash and foolish attempts at "revolutionizing" government; we rule justly and efficiently, as we have for more than a thousand years, with the betterment of all mankind, today and tomorrow, as our only objective. It is through stability that we assure this, and our policies reflect that, rather than a desire to escalate political and social unrest amongst our citizens.

The traitorous Sovereignty and Conglomerate, on the other hand, corrupt the free citizens of the Republic with their lies about "freedom" and "human advancement", when in reality, they only seek to establish a tyrannical and dystopian rule over humanity. Faced with the destruction of our true and just way of life, and the enslavement of our population, it is our duty to defend humanity against these muses of deceit and heralds of oppression. No compromise can be made in this conflict, for it is our survival which is in danger, and we are more than willing to fight to the bitter end to preserve it.

Established on a wiki? Anyone can edit the wiki.

NC and VS are clearly trying to undermine the integrity of our great republic.
