Samura, on the other hand, is a family name that seized the Kusari throne in a coup centuries ago and took control of the market industries in a very fascist kinda way. Samura was a representation of a full marriage of state and corporation through conquest by a single family. Now Samura only has it's economic holdings atm and I bet would be coming back for it's state.
I guess it's possible, but I wonder how effective they would be. Remember that Samura would have to be strong enough to overthrow both Kishiro and the government militairy. Though now that Kusari's militairy is mostly destroyed by Gallia, the latter doesn't seem so difficult. Waging outright war is still costly though, and Samura would have to weaken Kishiro first ... which is pretty much the entire plot point between both factions already.
I guess one way to handle it would be Samura and Kishiro both racing to rebuild the Kusari navy after the war with Gallia, then attempt to use this as leverage for state power. Samura could even team up with Gallia, pushing Kishiro to find other allies?
So many possibilities. Interesting. I can see it happen now. Hmm.
