Quotes of People in Your Nation Mk. VI

[Terra Britania]

"Stop being silly! You do realise that charging horses into a tank would be utter suicide! Next time: upgrade the f*ck out of your units. And look here, your city's a bloody mess. Work more food tiles, you get more population that way. And learn to build railroads. Good grief, you're the only one without them. Look, even Genghis Khan has a rail connecting Karakorum and Turfan. Oh my f*cking god... why are there three barbarians near your capital? You were supposed to get rid of their camp before expanding."

"Catgirls could only hope to be pretty maids or sexual workers in the old days. However their small build allows them to be very useful in the current state of the world.

[Phisych University]

”I thought occasionally protecting mankind from itself was what the other guys did. Like, the wanton destruction of anomalous items is, in their eyes, based more on mankind’s inherit fear of the unknown and that it is much smarter to contain and study them until they are understood. These guys are based on a creepypasta where the Red Army literally kills God. I mean, think on that, you’re based on a story where the opiate of the masses needs to be destroyed with such urgency that an effort, a successful effort no less, is made to kill the omnipotent creator of everything. That sounds like Imperium of Man levels of fetishizing mankind.”

“Let people have fun, Charles. For genius sake, you sound like a housewife.”

“... Is it possible for a constructed personality to have a gender outside of what it’s creator intended?”

“Jesus Christ, I am not having that conversation.”

[Revolutionary Equestria]

It was when we first looked into the skies with virgin, young eyes that we saw the sun and the moon. Luna and Celestia - We thought them to be Gods, unquestionable and untouchable. Which for a time, they were. As they brought us all together into one bundle. Tied together by sturdy leather straps, tipped with sturdy iron. But as we'd observed through our history till that point, these facses don't last nearly long enough. Soon the the leather would begin to gray and become brittle, the metal would rust, the strongest sticks would snap with each abusive smash the head would bring.

Soon enough, collapse would come. All that there would be left would be the axe. The axe now alone and vulnerable. This is what we saw during the Revolution and the years before it truly began. Celestia and Luna had played their instruments of harmony just too roughly, the leather snapped, and the entire thing came crashing down. But unlike some, they snapped with the rest of the facses. But those sticks, all small and undoubtably bent, came back together. They came back together, in a more perfect facses. With a more thoughtful head.... And Equestria was reborn, as et Phoenix, she rose[...] She rose to fight another day.
-Brightpath, Minister of Enlightenment. Speaking on the revolution.

[Terra Britania]

"Every man has a price. He would gladly give up his beliefs, betray his ally, or even fight under you, all for the right amount of compensation. Now, mister president, what is yours? A million dollars, a car, some jewellery? Perhaps that your daughter be spared from the fury of a British spy's pistol? Don't bother asking for help, we have ways of covering our tracks. That, and turning the wrath of the whole world against you."

- Sir Achilles Gianopoulos, His Majesty's Ambassador to the Republic of Egypt, after a particularly Anti-British President Khalid Al-Maqoor was recently elected, circa August 1998

[The Atlantean Islands]

"Fuck the blasted Great Firewall of China, and curse it to kingdom come! How the hell was I supposed to watch YouTube videos, connect to my family back home in Atlantis via FB, or follow my favourite stars' tweets while I was in Shanghai?

"I pray one day that the Chinese in the mainland will taste true unfettered online freedom, as well as personal freedoms comparable to those of our nation."

"You should know that the Chinese value obedience to a higher authority over personal freedom, especially if said authority, the Communist Party of China, will elevate the country to unimaginable levels of greatness. You must also know that the Great Firewall was made to keep the CPC's grip on power strong, and without a strong, streamlined authority like the CPC, China risks breaking apart. Remember the Warlord era?"

"Good point. But times are different now, and I wish the Chinese would be able to have a different view."

"The party still cannot risk liberal views removing them from power and breaking the country, especially after China is soaring to new heights now. Look at the bright side, at least you could still access reddit there."

"Perhaps. But still, fuck the Firewall."

-Atlantean investor after landing from China, conversing with an Atlantean tourist who was on the same flight.

"Tiger tiger tiger means the mission is completed and all objectives were reached and we got away clean.

[Las Palmeras]

"Death is sublime because it's an ultimate truth, we're closest to God. The Spaniard Oratores pray hypocritically and care only for useless rituals they assume will allow them to win. We, the Bellatore, are close to God. The death of our nation would have been preferable to it's predictable future on your hands.

Are you accepting that you'd have continued with the 'Total War' policies of the so-called Totalist faction of the National Salvation Army of Las Palmeras when you attempted a coup following the sending of the telegram of surrender by part of the legitimate government?

Your 'White Man's Burden' is the pretentious pandering of porcine usurers in Wall Street and of a people who are glorified worker drones, but these islands will be islands for peon labor. We'll be reduced to serfs' serfs and whores; because of this, I'd have offered every last man, woman, and child the possibility to transcend their lowly status and escape such a vile fate. When the Spanish invented the caste system, they reduced worth to skin tone. After several hundreds of years of invasion attempts though we learned that all blood is red. But not all blood is the same. Our blood is the noblest as we taught the Confederate pigs despite their claims. The spineless bureaucrats surrendered to your United States because they thought we couldn't take another invasion.

Yes or no? Are you admitting it?

Yes. Though I passed out, it would have been better to die like so many of my subordinates, my only petition is that you do not hang me like a common criminal."
-Transcription of the trial of Gen. Ramírez and the Gang of Ten, 1898
