[quote=@Shorticus] I'm looking at your culture/demographics section again. The demographics of Hungary are pretty similar to Madagascar, and the treatment of non-humans is similar (tolerated but not exactly accepted)... I can see Malagasy Enterprises trading foodstuffs and luxury agricultural products in return for military equipment, metals, and electrical equipment. I don't see these nations as necessarily the best of friends, but a mutually beneficial trade relationship with a foreign entity that isn't really in punching range would definitely be good to Malagasy Enterprises. ...Of course, the corporate government would probably want to secure deals with Hungary which prevent them from opening similar trade deals with the Great Han. I honestly think the Great Han is going to be a natural enemy of Malagasy Enterprises just due to conflicting interests and border friction. Thoughts? [/quote]Actually we pretty much tolerate mutants, it just happens that even if there are laws protecting them things are not so easy. Imagine blacks in the early 1990s, for example. Actually given the Holy League's deep Christian roots and conservatism it's kinda amazing how they managed to accept mutants. On the other hand you'd likely won't make many friends with your openness to gene manipulation. That's a seriously big can of worms. But yeah, trade relationship is entirely possible. I happen to have a bit of presence in Africa so perhaps that could be our point of contact.
