I confess that it's excessively Russian-centric but this doesn't prevent you from starting an Arab faction (people already tried, more than once) and maybe attempting to contribute to Planet Tangiers' lore.

Once that's sorted out, then the Chinese should come next with their own planet. I would personally move Jiangxi out of Omega-52, it's stupid to have a Chinese-named world in an otherwise Soviet system.

I'm using the term 'Soviet' because Omega-52 has stuff from Georgia and Ukraine as well.

To give people perspective, because I feel it's still unclear - do not consider current playerbase or story. This was spawned by having a discussion with some friends whether or not this type of house would be of interest to anybody. This is purely curiosity on the prospect of this style of a house incorporated into Freelancer. Don't think too deep on this.

I mean the Coalition we have is basically just Sirians larping as the Sol Coalition by mimicking their ideology and what they understand of the originating nations' culture.

It's effectively impossible for a handful of saboteurs on the Hispania to have created (or retained) separate ethnic and cultural identities over the course of 800 years, unless we're talking about a level of inbred that'd put a Habsburg bakery to shame.

Incidentally, even the early days of the SCRA had them largely recruiting from and allied to the Corsairs (and assorted House malcontents), up until certain incidents reversed their diplomacy and allied them with the Hessians.
