Dmitri chuckled a bit, and turned to the Supreme.
"Oh, all the time. It's so common that half of our comedy programs are based entirely off intergalactic politics and how nobody ever agrees. Admiral McClain says its almost as bad as 21st century Terra, may we never forget that world. Its not pretty, but its reality, and the Federation can't do anything to change it."

The Empress spoke, still floating above the ground.
"You will get no help from the Abh Empire, and I doubt the Human Cooperative will help either. The Boskops and Dolphins will follow the humans, and the Ethra'Hirel the Boskops. The Federation will almost certainly not provide any assistance to the Equiis Pact in this war, in fact, the Abh Empire may provide indirect support to the Triarian Collective after what has been brought to our attention! My personal conclusion is that you have finally degraded like so many good societies in Terragen past. The Soviet Union and its fall to tyrrany, America and its degeneration into a dystopia with government observation blimps above every city, even Canada fell to a dictatorial government. It is sad, you were so pure, so noble once. What has become of you? What has become of the noble Equestrians the humans spoke of when the first Abh emerged from the artificial wombs? Where is the peace and the harmony?"

The Federation has announced that they oppose Nexen, for obvious reasons. However, they do not know enough about the other two factions to make a judgement on who to support, if anyone at all. To remedy this, they have sent an identical message to both Elrus and Rasen.
"Please state your goals and beliefs, you could gain the support of the Allied Interstellar Federation if they are compatible with ours. Be warned that this comes with much risk, do not respond if you believe that it would harm you to do so."
