The colours are less about ideology and more about “sides”. You’re certainly working with “the Minmatar” to fight “the Amarr”, so I have included you appropriately. ---

My sweet little slave, we’re Purity of the **Throne**. We’re not really there for you. We’re there to demonstrate that you and the other rebels are simply a symptom of God’s judgement upon the Empire for allowing an impure ruler to sully the throne. The sooner this is realised, the sooner the Empire can throw out the harlot and place a pure ruler on the throne, and then, united, stand against our rebelling subjects. If we can strike a blow against some rebels as well, well, that’s just a bonus. ---

Can’t strike anything when too busy decanting to pour the piss out of the pod, girlie. More importantly, when you cower and run from a single Matari, I don’t think you can demonstrate much of anything to anyone. ---

Except this is not a Minmatar v Amarr fight. These are slave uprisings. The slave populations consist of more people than just ethnic Minmatar, and even the ones that are Minmatar aren’t in most cases culturally Matari. It is true, though, that the majority of insurgents in space are Minmatar. > [@Tenar\_Sabezan](#): > > My sweet little slave, we’re Purity of the **Throne**.

If you would like to create A Diagram of the various political and idealogical forces involved in the struggle, I would be very interested to see it. My Diagram is not that however. ---

> [@Kalaratiri](#): > > The slaves are not fighting wars in space. I think we all know that the entire reason Thebeka III was targeted was because a Minmatar slave from that planet _is_ in fact, one of the combatants in space. She simply refuses to be cowed by blooders _or_ angels. ---

It’s not far-fetched at all, Samira and Purity are both Amarr Heretics with Ardishapur backgrounds that actively despise our current Empress. ---
