Life in one of the four major empires is quite an interesting topic. Without being a genius, I'm very sure that many would choose to be part of the Caldari State or the Gallente Federation. Personally, I'm fond of the Caldari faction with its mega-corporations controlling everything. But there's a faction that almost always gets forgotten: the Minmatar Republic.

Now, why do they seem interesting to me? Well, their lore demonstrates how, given enough time, the differences between rivals can vanish when they realize that they can achieve more together than by fighting against each other. It's true that they're not the most advanced in technology, possibly the least developed faction in all aspects. However, their ability to work together for a better tomorrow would undoubtedly be my choice if I had to choose to live in any of the four empires.

To be more specific, let's remember that the Minmatar are organized by tribes. So, without much thought, I would choose the Sebiestor tribe if given the chance. Their virtues and their role within the republic reflect much of what Orik Kado loves to do within his space in New Eden

My default would be the Gallente,

As a new player i fell into the Caladari trap of missiles and PvE, kitting around while emptying my rocket launchers, it was obviously a safe technic to use combat ship and i entirely respect that, but it got me very bored at some point.

Then i switched for Gallente and the gameplay changed, brawling and launching drones, flying a Tristan for faction warfare was pretty efficient as a solo PvP catching small targets in high sec, change fitting then fire those hybrid turrets, real fun !

  • What got me into was the Hecate, that fast “Nausicaa like” wing, i usually called my ships “Bim Boom Bye”, because that was literally my plan while solo hunting.

  • What confirmed was the Proteus, sneaky killing machine, takes hunting to another level..

  • What made me fall in love was the Moros Navy Issue, what can i say it’s a beautiful aggressive looking monster.

Gallente you either love the design or you hate it but there is rarely in-between opinions.

100% Gallente - Super sharp dressers, look kinda foxy, and the French gets me every time!

They also very kindly donated 10 AT skins to us after our win in the AT feeders to get us through to ATXIX which i thought was super awesome of them.

Green looks great in space too! :D

If I had to live in an Empire it would be the Caldari State. When thinking of the average citizen in a New Eden empire, it is important to remember that the empires are vast and diverse with different political divisions and bloodlines.

In my mind, it would be like a dream to be a an Achuran monk who spends his days postulating the secrets of the universe. Achurans do not necessarily have an organized religion, but the monks operate out of a few dozen monastic orders that are dedication to exploration and science and have little interest in current politics and events.

It would be as if going into a time capsule into the future. Rather than dealing with the harsh realities of the future, I would spend my day learning all the wonders that remain hidden to us in the real world.

Why the Gallente in EVE Online Resonates with Me

When asked about my favorite empire in EVE Online, my answer has been unwavering since I created my character back in 2004 – it's the Gallente. This choice might surprise some, especially given the common myths suggesting the Gallente are merely entertainment-obsessed. I see these as misconceptions, likely stemming from Amarr and Caldari propaganda.

In my view, the Gallente Federation epitomizes values that are increasingly scarce in our world: freedom, equality, diversity, and openness. These aren't just abstract concepts; they are principles that guide the federation, making it a unique and admirable entity within the game's universe.

These values deeply resonate with me. They align with what I desire not just in the realm of EVE Online, but in the real world too. I advocate for a society where these principles are not just upheld, but celebrated. The Gallente stand as a testament to these ideals, making them more than just a faction in a game for me. They represent what I seek for everyone, a beacon of hope and progress.

So yes, my choice remains the Gallente. They're not just a faction I play in a game; they're a reflection of the world I aspire to see.
