The Republic: Difference between revisions

 

 

 

 

If [[The Alliance]] is the [[Five-Man Band]] of political entities, this one will likely be [[The Hero]] (or just [[Decoy Protagonist|thinks it is]]), [[The Lancer]], or [[The Big Guy]]. The Republic is the close relative of [[The Federation]]. If it is not part of The Alliance, it is usually friendly to it. It is almost always enemies with [[The Empire]]. Like The Alliance, it sometimes forms out of [[La Résistance]]. This government, like [[The Kingdom]], is almost never evil. If it is, it's nearly always because of some military coup or a group of corrupt bureaucrats. Sometimes, The Republic ends up ''becoming'' The Empire because of this. The Republic is a far more tight-knit nation than [[The Federation]], usually acting like one country rather than separate states, but shares most of its characteristics. If The Republic and The Federation are both in the same [[The Verse|Verse]], they may not always be on the friendliest of terms. It is often based in most ways on the modern United States, and generally some kind of humanitarian, democratic capitalist society.
