Line 44:
* In ''[[Cat City]]'' (Macskafogó, one of the best animation movies ever, for Hungarians) Grabovsky, the [[James Bond|Bond]]-Mouse was called back from retirement like Cincinnatus. The evil cat boss, spying on the meeting of mice leaders, heard the reference and thought that Cincinnatus was a new secret agent (in Hungarian, "Cincin" is the onomatopoeia for the sound mice make), so he sent his assistant, Safranek, to look him up. This led to Safranek being tortured, as he unwisely told his boss that Cincinnatus was a historical figure, which is common knowledge.
* The [[Evil Overlord]] section describes [[Manipulative Bastard|Senator Palpatine]] to a T. Not only does he create a lack of confidence in Chancellor Velorum (positioning himself as his replacement), he also organizes the entire Clone Wars (orchestrating the manufacture of both droids and clones for their respective sides),and manipulates the Senate into granting him the power to enact [[Martial Law]], laying the foundations for the Republic's transformation into a massive Empire ruled by him. All to meet a temporary emergency, of course.
{{quote|'''Palpatine:''' It is with great reluctance that I have agreed to this calling. I love democracy. I love the Republic. Once this crisis has abated, I will lay down the powers you have given me!}}
