    There have been views expressed that the [[faction]] scheme might be induced by playing too much Alpha Centauri, which has the "countries" defined as factions with colour coding for game play. If there is such a connection it will necessarily carry some of the fantasy world and it's inevitabilities to our world such as the "fact" that the [[green]] and [[yellow]] factions try to get rid of the other on sight (by warfare), because they have such opposing agendas. Also generally no one wants to border the [[blacks]] that somew [[trolls] claim as their colour because they are armed to the teeth and agressive. --[[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 10:56, 2 Sep 2004 (EEST)
