It was a path envisioned by the Altiplano advocate. He wanted Altiplano to be a power in its own right. In order to do that, a clash with Olympia is...

Well we both only get one vote in the UN General Assembly. I'll further note that Belgium is the host nation of NATO and the European Community. I also did my...
Still doesn't explain why Altiplano would want to leave. If they did want to leave the FN treay i don't see how pressure brought by Olympia would make them...
I know. I have a friend from Belgium. However, the US is still a super-power and Belgium is not. For 50 years the world did not live in terror that Belgium and...

Oh yeah, i forgot about that whole inheritor of the FN thing. Makes more sense in that light but still leaves me uneasy. Probably just as well. ... From:...
Yes, i see. < now entering tangent > This is what made B5 so compelling, not the acting or even most of the dialog. Rather it was the political subterfuges,...

... Slow down.... - *Are you* the Altiplano advocate? I'm not saying you are not; I just want to know if you are flinging this out at random, of if you are...
As an aside and possible come back to the list and the project: the UN General Assembly can enforce very little. They have no binding power. Only the...
Eric: Pleased to see that you've agreed that there are more game possibilities if it's not a neatly ordered, cut-and-dried universe. As you can see, the life...
Thanks Darryl. The Altiplano thing really nags me. If things are going to hell i'd like to know about it so i can at least attempt a finger in the dike....
Hey Erik, don't worry about just taking a little diplomatic nick on the chin over finding out that Altiplano doesn't worship at the Temple of Olympia LOL. You...
Knock it off guys. All I am is the bringing of bad news, so don't jump down my god-damn throat about it. If you want to have a fit about things that have been...
