Wes said:For the meantime, I'm controlling the reds. The Reds, a political group that has existed (and fought the greens) since the earliest days of the SARP, seek to preserve the old ways: they're big on cloning, war, species diversity, imperialism, shipbuilding, and organized crime. They don't like restrictive laws (especial on weapons or self-defense) or species replacement (think Yamatai). They see the greens as new-age leftists who are wrongly putting themselves in charge of all of Nepleslia, and they especially hate the senate. The reds want the Emperor to have absolute power (but not necessarily the current emperor). They possess an enormous military-industrial base (including that of the temporarily allied Black faction) and a significant portion of the population supports them throughout Nepleslia--the greens have historically been seen as oppressors of the Nepleslian population in general and Yamataian sympathizers due to their long history as working for the old Uesureyan Empire.
The old official government of the Reds (whose capital was New Detroit [which is now known as Funky City]) was the Tymian Empire, whose major industrial complex was TD Electronics. Both Tymia and Uesureya were members of the United Empire Forces (UEF) Since then, the Uesureyan elite became the Yamataian Empire, which eventually took over the UEF by force in the years before YE 01.
