Says someone from the most hated house on the whole world.
Periphery hates you, 4 houses hate you (well, everyone mostly hates everyone, but well...), Clans hate you, Com Star hates you, WoB hates you, and I do not know about Republic of the Sphere, but seeing everyone has taken back their worlds, even they should hate you.
We, on the other hand, do have some actuall allies like Marik (a lot later into the story line, we start being friends) and Magistracy with Taurian are our allies. You had only Steiners and you started war with them once the opportunity arrised.
It wasn't technically a war against Stiener, it was Fedcom versus Fedcom because Katherine was a conniving and murderous !%#^@&.
It's too bad you're own people don't care about how your nation is run when you willingly let madness rule you, and end up the butt of the joke more times then anyone else. Who had to be pulled into the Republic? It was the Capellans, because you wouldn't play dice with the rest of the Inner Sphere.
After the Clans are forced to halt their invasion because of the great Refusal, Fedcom and Kurita are getting along better then they've probably EVER been in their entire history, and the FWL is kind of twiddling it's thumbs waiting for Thomas Marik to do the whole Jihad thing. FRR is pretty much gone, and out of what remains they really are just sitting on their hands solidifying their position. Comstar seems to quite like Davion, but that probably has a lot to do with Focht and Victor running the show. That's later of course, earlier Comstar doesn't really like anyone... lol.
Without misuse of the Star League Military, St. Ives would still be a nation and probably larger then it was before you're little war. Hell, the only reason Sun-Tzu remained alive was because Candace let him remain that way, because she's not a tyrant like he is.
Though, all seriousness, would be neat to have a St. Ives even if like the Jaguars gets removed later due to unfolding events. (Or give us the chance to fight for it's survival
)
