What are some political parties within each government? Is there a small group in the Banu that would like to cease trade with Humans, or something like our modern day political parties and governments?asked by Captain R. Mason
TL;DRThree human political parties exist so far, but the alien ones aren't ready to discuss; the writers say fringe groups, like Banu wanting to end trade with humans, could exist but would be small.
So at the moment for the humans, we have three political parties that we've established. There's the Universal Party, Centralist Party, and the Transitionalist Party. We haven't really gotten into the alien ones yet... specifically the Banu one-Will Weissbaum: Well, we're not ready to talk about it quite yet. But basically though, because we want to have a lot of variety in the things that you can do in the PU, you can always be unsure to whether it's not a majority of the population believe something... you know, I'm sure there is a group of Banu that would like to cut off trade from the humans. Whether its just two guys on a ship and they're trying to sabotage this other thing, you know, it all comes down to we want to have the full rainbow of beliefs - it's always just about how many people believe that weird thing. Like, the more fringe the belief is, the less people you'll run into in the universe that believe it.
Right. But you know, it could be one of things that, is it something that could happen down the line? Maybe - but they would have to grow in power, or something would have to happen that would shift them, or something like that.
Yeah. And I'm sure there's just as many humans who want to cut off trade with the Banu, and the other things, as we've covered in a recent news update.The party that I wanna join is the after party!
Heyoooo!
