"Hierarchy is natural; every society that has ever existed has done so while having rulers and those whom they rule, whether they admitted it or not. Whether it's the Queen up north, a dictator, an elected council or a raider gang, there will still arise de facto aristocratic and commoner classes, if not de jure. To think that a society of any meaningful size can simply exist with its members doing whatever they want without any governing body at all no matter how small is a fantasy."

Stephen Laurier
"One has the right to seek a better life for them and their children, but that right—like any right—ceases being an applicable way to justify one's self when it threatens the rights and freedoms of the peoples who already inhabit the area. A factory worker's family may benefit from living in his factory owner's estate, but he would rightfully be resisted if they tried to enter his compound by force uninvited. By the same measure, that right is extended to the factory worker's apartment if a tribal from the east is seeking a better life and forcibly squats on their property."
