The Oculi wouldn't like any kind of dictatorship and would violently oppose it. And I realize most of those countries are democracies now, but I'm assuming that the world of [b]pre-WW3[/b] is more ridden with dictators, possessing a more dystopic feel. That's where the idea of France and Italy being taken over by tyrants came from in my background.
