Let me tell you about something that happened to me recently. I had just started a new character, and I needed a lot of money sent over to it. So I sent ⅓ of my main character’s ISK over. To the wrong person. Undeterred, however, I found the correct character and then sent another third. And then…

It turns out, I had forgotten to check the prices. They were listed on the site I got the fit from- but they were in Jita, and I had enlisted in Gallente faction warfare. So I had to order somewhere else. Where the prices were three times that. When the dust had cleared, I had already spent the entirety of the sent money. To make matters worse, the items had been ordered were in another station, and while I was heading back… I got ganked. So, I’d lost ⅔ of my money- and hadn’t even been able to get the thing I needed.

Oof.

I’m guessing most of you know that, on March 2020, the mysterious Triglavian Collective started taking over empire space, and forming the highly dangerous region of Pochven. This has, to say the least, not given them a very good reputation. CONCORD has abandoned the systems, and they are considered empire nullsec (So, no CONCORD, but also no cyno or bubbles. Basically lowsec with no sentry guns or status loss.). This means that no empire has yet acknowledged their sovereignty- despite them capturing 27 systems. By comparison, the Minmatar have 8 and the Gallente only 5. Plus, do remember that this was done in five months (at an average rate of 5 systems per month), against every one of the existing empires. Pretty darn impressive.   This leads me to believe that the Triglav should be considered a sovereign nation- as they have demonstrated extreme military prowess and have extended into systems previously thought uninhabitable. They also appear to share similar views on such subjec...
