French Language and Liberty

[Hielor]

There is diversity in sleeper ship Hispania since they packed many people there, not only from Spain/Portugal. Big chunks come from Italy but would not be surprised seeing lots of other countries from Europe. I am surprised there is no Indian people in Bretonia or multitude of cultures inside Liberty.

Well, the lack of a multitude of cultures inside Liberty despite the presence of multiple cultures in modern America is easily explained by the nature of the Freelancer universe, as I mentioned in my earlier post that I think got lost in all the ninja-editing:

Given that the US has subcultures from all over the world, I wouldn't be at all surprised to find any given language spoken in Liberty, realistically speaking.

That said, Freelancer is based on very strict astrographical divisions between stereotypical ethnic and cultural groups, so I also wouldn't be surprised if the answer was no.

Of course, if you wanted to roleplay that there was some descendants of French Canadians living together someplace, I don't think that would be terribly unreasonable, especially since there would have been no French-speaking house for them to immigrate to (the way other subcultures could have).

However, it also might be worth considering that such a group could be suffering from prejudice and that sort of thing in light of Gallia's aggressiveness, and there may be some pressure for them to move.
