DUST 514 - Minmatar Republic

Of the four major races of New Eden, none has endured more turmoil than the Minmatar. Once a thriving tribal civilization, the Minmatar were enslaved by the Amarr Empire for more than 700 years until a massive rebellion freed most, but not all, of those held in servitude. Modeling their recovery after the Federation's success, the Minmatar Republic was born. But despite rising to prominence on the world stage, more than one third of the present-day population remains enslaved. The Minmatar people today are resilient, ingenious, and hard-working. They will forever resent the Amarrians, and yearn for the days before their accursed ships ever reached their home skies. The Minmatar are allied with the Gallente Federation and continue to fight for freedom from the Amarr Empire.
