[Las Palmeras]

"The committee of Project Aquarius, through the Special Police Bureau, asked our colleagues at the British SIS if they were kind enough to share a transcription of the interrogation of Rudolf Hess conducted by Aleister Crowley. They affirm they could be of help, presumably with the 'psychic' agents they're employing."
-Part of a document from the Ministry of State Security's archives, "Predecessor Agency Special Police Bureau: folios 1942-1945"

[Imperivm Terrae]

"We are a rather liberal country: the people have the right to free speech and thought, free healthcare, free education until university, various welfare programmes, et cetera. But, don't get me wrong, we are firm believers in the pursuit of the sciences. However, some people fail to realise basic biology, that evolution gave us two genders — male and female. If you identify as something else, you're clearly wrong in the head, and for that, we offer a variety of mental healthcare centres for you to visit."

- Duke Louis Anderson, Prime Minister of the Terran Imperium, in an interview about the so called LGBT Pride Month, 9 June 2368

[Semison Republic]

Yes, we are just ants and bees. Because we stand together, "work together to build and maintain this colony (state). A nation created by the struggle of its people.
N.P. have you ever heard of an ant that defeated an elephant ?. If Yes that's what we did in Revolutionary war."

-Vladimir Buchkovic
Special Region Of Luzhinsky Citizens.
(When asked by foreign journalists about the meaning of the semison state motto and the history of the Semison Revolutionary War of the Year 74-75).

[The Atlantean Islands]

"Think of our 'huge-arse' Home Defence Fleet as a modern-day sea-based Great Wall of Atlantis, except that it will not be useless or fall easily and does not become obsolete over time, in which case, navies would already be obsolete. As an added bonus, thanks to the Great Wall, the United States of America is better defended by the castle that is Atlantis, plus the Great Wall is extremely flexible, allowing."
-Auxiliary Admiral Gerard Talan, to an American Rear Admiral

[Gigaverse]

"Hilaris et originalis decem super decem."

[Bereia]

"Faith is not blind, but neither is it knowledge. It is belief in the face of the unproven."

-- Father Nathan Cathcart.

"Fascism is an ideology which holds that the state is more important than the individual, and that this belief must ever be enforced by a strong central state. They favor corporate welfare, and the individual worker's rights being suppressed if they oppose state interests. There's more, of course, but anybody who actually knows me can tell you that none of this, none of this, is in line with my individual beliefs, so may I offer a suggestion? Read more books and maybe get to know people a bit before you start tossing around labels."

-- Julissa Hickman, Citizen, to a student who angrily called her a "dirty fascist."

[Estainia]

"I was unaware I advocated the mass genocide of religious minorities, my apologies whilst I rectify this." - Cornelius Andius the one time he was called a fascist prior to setting the accuser on fire.

[Barboneia]

"The general smoked a Cuban blunt hand rolled by the Reds. Then he poured a glass of scotch and tallied up the dead." - A line from a satirical short story mocking the United States military, written in the late 1990s. Anti-American sentiment in Barboneia was at an all-time high from 1997 to 2001. Public opinion on the country has mostly been positive since then.

* Video of a man in boat trying to start an outboard motor. *

NARRATOR: "Layoffs. Outsourcing. Made in China, or whoever knows where, all to save a dollar."

* Man continues trying to start outboard motor. *

NARRATOR: "They don't make them like they used to anymore, that's for sure."

* Outboard motor sputters, then fails. Man continues trying to start it. *

NARRATOR: "That extra dollar doesn't seem worth so much now either, but they all do it, don't they? Is there still another option?"

NARRATOR: "Well, there is still some place where they make them like they used to. Where reliability is more important than the stock price next quarter, and the companies are around for long haul."

* Man stands up, frustrated, as another boat pulls up, with a small Ashkeran flag visible. *

OTHER MAN: "You need a hand, friend?"

NARRATOR: "Stuff that works when you need it most. Stuff that takes a beating and keeps on ticking. Stuff from Ashkera."

NARRATOR: "Made in Ashkera. It just works right, every time."

- commercial run by the Ashkeran Export Industry Association, United States of America, 2003

"Of course, the campaign's tagline, 'it just works right, every time', is a lie. No one can guarantee all their manufactured goods will be free of defects. Instead, the Exports Association members printed their mean-time-to-failure as estimated by the Ashkeran insurance industry and redefined their warranties to accommodate it. Ultimately, however, the campaign failed to sufficiently increase sales, and was instead followed by a more successful, higher-margin 'luxury rebranding' campaign."

"Loss can take you down one of two paths, it can make you bitter, or it can make you kind. Do I strike you as kind?" - Cornelius Andius

[Mierhafe]

"Caesar, the Vroxian forces have invaded Andromeda, mainly with ground forces"
"Their command ship is outside our domain in Andromeda, we have managed to neutralize it"
"Caesar, by far we have lost quite some forces to the war against Vroxians, it is recommended that......."
"Caesar, I disagree, if we destroy their home world like General Marius said, we could be tried as war criminals"
"With respect, Consul, their respect"
"Get rid of it!"
"But Caesar"
"Get rid of it, the existence of Vroxian is a threat to us all!"
"Caesar Lentula, it is........"
"I am aware, that, it may seem somewhat unconventional for a woman like me to authorize such attack, but all and all, my duty is to protect the safety of Eclisians here and abroad"
"Caesar, if we launch the planetary annihilator, the Intergalactic Security Council could......"
"Then, my good consul, I guess those morally-bankrupt and incapable hypocrites from ISC can join them in the oblivion. I take threats from no one and do not ever expect this lady to bow before the anyone!"
From: Eras of Entropy (by Amulius Fabius Carius 6.000.1123B)

Background: Vroxians, a highly aggressive alien race invaded Andromeda galaxy in 5002, Eclisian forces retaliated and defended Andromeda from invaders, however, the Empire also lost a huge portion of its fleet. From the desperation, Caesar Caprinia Lentula authorized the strike on Vroxian home planet with planetary annihilator, a machine that uses highly aggressive psionic energy to pulverize planets. The action ultimately resulted in Vroxian defeat with 76% of their domestic population killed in the destruction of their home planet.

[The Atlantean Islands]

"Joseph Stalin did not necessarily want to spread Communism to the world, as he championed Communism into one country, as opposed to Leon Trotsky's ambitions to spread the ideology across the globe. Stalin just wanted a sphere of influence, or a buffer zone, that would protect [Western] Russia's rather geographically vulnerable position, being by plainlands, even if it meant assimilation of certain nations into the Soviet Union. Of course, it is understandable if one is to think otherwise, given the circumstances after Stalin's reign..."
-Excerpt of a university student's thesis on the Cold War

[The Normandian Empire]

[The Atlantean Islands]

"My signature outfit can work as a wedding outfit, with some modifications. I would recommend for white stockings, preferably with feathers to match the feather motif. I would also ask for a wedding train, also preferably with feathers. I would also likely wear the prototype mermaid heels I wore for my coronation, with sole protectors of course, as the mermaid and seahorse sole is so pretty for me to scoff. That said, I may take it off for photo shots involving the soles of my shoes, like the bridal carry."
-Queen Alessa, in an interview on her potential wedding outfit (she isn't married yet)

"A statue of a mermaid riding a mermaid horse rotating such that the mermaid points at the sun? Where have I seen such a vanity project before?"
-Tourist, semi-sarcastically, on the Statue of Mermaid and Hippocampus near the Royal Palace in Atlantis City (the 'seen such a vanity project' said tourist refers to is probably the Neutrality Monument at Turkmenistan)

[Ashkera]

ASHKERA: "Your reach exceeds your grasp, Japan."

JAPAN: "Ashkera?! Why have you betrayed us?!"

ASHKERA: "Didn't I tell you that I would be the one to pry the southeast from the Europeans? Did you think I wasn't serious?"

JAPAN: "And what right do you have to rule Asia?"

ASHKERA: "Do you think you're the only one to know the art of Ultranationalism? I emerged from the primordial sea over three thousand years before you were even born, much less awakened! I have not only right to Asia, but to the whole of the world."

JAPAN: "So that's what it's come to, then."

ASHKERA: "Indeed. Yield or I shall sweep you away like the tides."

JAPAN: "I will never yield."

ASHKERA: "YAI VEN!"

- dialogue from a trashy webcomic involving national personifications and World War 2, later posted to cringe websites, 2006

[Romandeos]

"I've been fighting for years, and sometimes it feels like I've been literally fighting, physically brawling, this entire time. It's enough. Somebody else can do it from now on. I'm finished."
