The Gallic Junkers have been in Sirius a long time, since the beginning of the Junkers themselves in fact. Beaumont Base in the Texas System is named after the one in Il de France, and has a 1:1 ratio of Gallic to Sirian Junkers. We have been here longer than you. We see the profitability of Sirius. We are nomadic, and the Borders of Gallia will not hold us. Secondly, you must also realize that we own a large number of bases in Gallia, only capable of operating because the crown allows us to do so.

I will tell you very clearly and loudly, that we do not support the crown. But for this reason, neither are we against it, we will never live by the motto, "join or die." Moreover, we are not loyal to the Crown, but loyal to Gallia. Or do you not claim to fight for the good of it anymore? We hold pride in our names, our history.... our culture. And our pride has been wounded. I try to control our angered members, I believe we must remain level headed. In one circumstance, my brother was asked to stop by a gateway representative, in the middle of independent space. Thinking he only need pay a small sum for the safety of his crew, he stopped. The Gateway man turned out to be a privateer, and after impatiently demanding a sum he knew my brother couldn't pay, attempted to murder him ruthlessly. My daughter, Genevieve, was captured and beaten by Bretonians; she has become hateful and difficult because of this, insisting that we must kill every Bretonians we lay eyes on.
