I wanted to mention one other thing that plays into my RP. Too bad it doesn't for some others. If you remember in the beginning of the vanilla game, you get to watch this movie:
In it, it mentions the war that lasted almost 100 years on old Earth, so long that people forgot exactly what they were fighting for or why between the Alliance and Coalition. That is why the Liberty, Kusari, Bretonia, Hispania and Rheinland were launched, to leave the war behind.
Now, these Houses fight each other as do factions therein. Wasn't this why they left old Earth in the first place? Maybe some have but as the stories are passed up from generation to generation, some haven't forgotten.
While Doc himself had to use old records to get the story straight, he never forgot why humanity sought a new home, to escape war. So, while most have returned to diplomacy by gun and killing as a solution, one person anyway, has done what he can to stop it. Sadly, humanity is again trying to erradicate itself over petty differences.
I agree with one thing Dab said as Aurelia DeFrance, "You Sirians are ripe for takeover with all of you squabbling and warring over petty differences."
