As you can see all the houses and important factions have old players and even admins that run them, its hard to get involved there and be a decision factor. But the GRN Galic royal navy is about to be disbanded, there is a power void there. So you have a big, beautiful isolated house who has a client house (Kusari, and Rheinland almost) who is relatively new to the game, in roleplay and in game that is starved for leadership and players. Its the obvious best choice.
So many players in a small faction can destabilise the politics localy. You can take over all of Galia with different characters for every faction.
