This is quite correct. Considering that her initial tone was hostile, and her argument very poorly structured, I still attempted to respond to her questions. I provided her with explanations of those parts she misunderstood and even though empirical evidence is not a necessary component of a theoretical essay, I provided her with a relatively long list of examples. She completely missed the point. I even went further and elaborated for her benefit in explaining in very simple terms the concept as it was initially expressed with the NPO removal of certain elements of The Pacific in antiquity. At this point, it became apparent that she (is it she? there are lots of 'anumia' nations floating around - seems like one of those fake multi accounts where players claim siblings are controlling WA nations - oh well, not my concern) would not accept any answer because she could not understand the concepts involved. The devolved to her making baseless generalizations and insults towards myself. So I decided to disengage. To the point however, if one wishes to see a contemporary example of the concepts spoken of in the 'Myth' at work, one only needs to review the past few days of TSP's regional message board. Many of their inhabiting nations are becoming disillusioned with the government there (right or wrong) and the theory is playing out publicly.

I doubt it could be better written. Organization is a matter of opinion I guess. This is not a definitive piece, it is an introductory article that is meant to lead to discussion (which it has) and further development (which it will). Regarding the rest of your post, your misconceptions do not alter reality. The Pacific is not allied with the UDL. The 'wider NS world' is simply wrong. It is not the first time. I am well aware of the benefits of 'marketing', I personally just do not care. Luckily I am not the PR person for the NPO. That has never been my ambition. I do find it somewhat disappointing that someone such as yourself would fall for such a position. Who has expressed this rumour to you specifically beyond just 'the people on the NS forum said so'?

I do not believe anything within the article will imply that The Pacific is somehow associated with the UDL. As I stated earlier, no such ties exist. There might have been elements within the Pacific Senate in the past that chose to undertake such associations but those elements have been removed.

And to address any other concerns expressed by The West Pacific government regarding my region's involvement with defender filth. I tend to speak with some authority on the subject and have been known to oppose non-feeder groups in the past.

The Pacific is not allied to the UDL. Period. To claim that past associations on a regional level equate to present circumstance in the face of official government disagreement is illogical. Is TWP still part of the defender community because of past involvement with the ADN? Unibot is one nation in the region. He is not a member of the Senate and is most assuredly not the Emperor. There are nations within these halls that have associations elsewhere that could be called suspect but that does not mean that the region as a whole is automatically linked to those suspect parties.
