Good thing i just woke up, the whole deal with /uuu/ started because I remember the /nasa/ rep saying that they never came by and how he couldn't get trade deals because of that, so I just came in with a big negotiation for the land i wanted in their general, key word being negotiation, then they offered me their entire land because they didn't want to be involved in the project.
I didn't like or want that because I've no idea on how I'd integrate them in the political system of the Republic or the lore i was building, also, if they ever do start being more interested in the project thay'd have no lands to start from and that'd make a big mess.
I told them i didn't want to annex them, just the lands, I had to reduce it to a "protection" deal, I also proceeded to announce it in the thread as quickly as I could.
I think the real reason others had a problem with /infinity/ doing it was because they basically said "we aren't isolationist anymore" and then announced their protectorate of /risu/, making it a bigger powerplay, /infinity/ had argued for many things using isolationism and supposed civil war as reasonings for their technological superiority, now that one of those went out the window, /infinity/'s technology is called into question. That's pretty much it.
