"Some say we're obsessed with cats. But, when some say that, they're not obsessed with cats. Thus, they are obsessed with not being obsessed with cats."

I'm a small American person who doesn't want to be a small American person. Also, I'm a female.

Catakia is an island filled with people and cats. They're socialists and quite religious, care a lot about the environment, and pacifist. Their leader is Muriel Lynx (goes by Murrie). She's about 20, pale and blond, and likes cats like 98% of the population.

"The nature of the Noble Qur'an, as revealed to us from God, is evident to our eyes: that God the Merciful precedes His own speech. Those who believe in the eternity of the Qur'an have committed the grave sin of polytheism, for God alone is the uncreated creator, yet they exalt the Qur'an just as they exalt God. To defy this ruling is to defy us, Commander of the Faithful, and to defy the Commonwealth of Believers."

“Why don’t you pray to your God then?”

"The idea of returning Port Royal Island to Imperial blood had taken hold..."

"...on the other hand, Gajos wanted what only war can bring him..."

"The Cristobellans were not willing to give up on the fishing dispute..."

"...He wanted Port Royal Island to be returned to the control of Imperial blood, he wanted control of the island of Magellan, he wanted a naval base on the two aforementioned islands..."

"Yes, I am aware that my presence in the war sanctum is somewhat "unconventional". This is especially true, since I'm in business attire, rather than uniforms. General Xyrom, I.....have always admired the work of you and your troops. However, imagine this, waking up one day, knowing that your highest advisors, scientists and soldiers have betrayed you, there is nothing other than chaos, and the only option left.........is death. See, I know it may seem highly nepotistic that, the Inner Senate selected me to take over Bureau of Foreign Intelligence, as my father served as the head of EDSI <Eclisian Department of Security and Intelligence>, as the head of Foreign Intelligence Bureau, but mark my word, I will bring entropy to those who opposes our vision"

-Gen. Clovia Gaebl

Additional info: two years after the speech, Clovia Gaebl successfully destroyed resistance forces on Heracles-608c, with nothing but a well-established underground spy ring, much like her father, General Herius Clodius Gaebl (who staged a coup in Orion-5c)

"If the massacre of children and their parents on a fun day out doesn’t make you feel rage and an urge to put an end to this madness, nothing will. The terrorist has defeated you. You are dead already." -Richard Volare, Orderian-born self-proclaimed vigilante (international terrorist), leader of the Whiteshirts, after the Liberty Confederation's Christmas Day Massacre. He helped incite the GWO population into lynching virtually the -entire- left-wing population of the GWO, with millions of socialists, anarchists, communists, and democracy advocates meeting their end in mob justice; this is known as the Piano Wire Revolution, as the preferred method of execution was hanging victims with sharp piano wires
