Only the NAC peacefully lets therm go? A tradition based on the 1776
experience?
Wasn't there a split/division between the islamic groups on earth that
extended into space in the Tuffleyverse? Guess not, can't find it in
FT...
The FSE/NSL kept all their break-aways on Earth? (2101 itself (EC into
FSE/NSL), 2102 (Netherlands), 2124 (Poland and Czechoslovakia ["together
again"? grin])
The Liberte' scenario in MT? (Thanks, John, give me an address and the
check is out bound for these rules.)

I'd suggest that there is plenty of room for
racial/ethnic/political/religious/class ESU splits (with enough backing
from a third party,) some possible Sunni/Shiitte type split of the IF,
LLAR right/left revolutions, PAU ethnic factionalism, inherited Eastern
Europeans dislikes, and IC splits... a fact of life?
Maybe we haven't been using our imaginations enough? <grin>
Maybe we a lot of Cotu's? <my campaign start - The People's Holy
Republic
- vaguely Pan-Asians without the alien strain...> only bigger and
better?
I am inspired to redo this and blended it more fuilly in the DS2/FT
model...
