....just curious. In our case, the Klingons, of course. Except that their women have rights. Ours don't even have names.

Wouldn't that make you more like the Ferengi? Or however you spell them? I believe it was considered indecent for a woman to wear clothing in their society

Anyway, I would be the isolationism of the Romulans, a repressive puritanism resembling the Baku, the diplomatic authority of the Vortal the value of culture and the defensive and guerrilla strength of the Bajorans... not to mention their lack of respect for authority.

It's hard to pick one.... I don't have a big military, so Romulans is not correct; I DO have technology, so I'm not quite as bad as the Baku, though I do limit trade and all my technology is based on self-reliance; The Vorta are pretty close, except that I don't really have command of a big military, again; The Bajorans are probably closest, especially since I lost my worlds long ago and took a big hit, now finally rejoining the galactic scene.

So, I guess my final answer would be Bajoran. Those people are just awesome anyway.

Well since the UTA is ran by a bunch of moral goody bastards, however we are sort of militaristic I would say Kirk era UFP for us.

Jafrat is a nation of warriors. We have a lot in common with the Klingons.

Is there a leftist/ secular humanist culture in Star Trek? I am not aware if there is or not. If so I think that would be my nation.

Not too up to date about star trek....Any civilizations that have thousands of intergalactic mining groups?

by **The Fedral Union** » Mon Sep 14, 2009 1:02 am

That would be the frengi they are often greedy and such.

Betazed match that pretty well... Humanist because they're empaths, secular but traditionalist, and leftist... well, weddings are to be performed naked as a matter of compulsion

vulcan. except we don't deny our emotions or deny enjoying them. but we absolutely don't TRUST them any further then a vulcan would. we're also rather fond of honest logic.

Earth (and, presumably, the federation) has socialized everything to the point where money and economics do not exist, and everyone lives in a happy playground where you can do whatever civilized thing you like...

by **Rejistania** » Mon Sep 14, 2009 2:16 am

The Megarans have been artificially raised from an agrarian society to a technological one rather quickly by foreigners, they speak a strange language which even the universal translator a problem with has. They are ruled by a leader who unified the planet...

But Rejistania is democratic, so it does not quite fit. Also the mentality is not so much that of dissatisfaction but more 'carpe diem' like. So... a Megara after democratic reforms maybe.

Sounds like kindergarten.

We're a lot like Barney Rubble.

I suppose the Ferengi are closest, only Ferengi foolishly want to "acquire" things rather than to create them. Perhaps they have a zero-sum view of wealth typical of strawman criticisms of capitalism.

If the Ferengi were to wise up and become self-actualizing creators of values, they would be like the people of our nation.

You're kidding me, right? Earth is Roddenberry's leftist/secular-humanist wet dream.

Never seen it, so, I dunno.

Mix the planet with the 1940s gangsters, the planet with the Nazis, and mix some Asian in there, and you got me.
