The Pros And Cons Of Mhaan-Tiq

Improved Essays
Besides ores and metals of all kinds, there one particular resource that everybody in the Neox Sector is dying to lay hands on: Mhaan-Tiq, or commonly known as “Glow”. An odd substance of unknown Origin and power, that can be discovered no place else in the galaxy. Despite the fact that its reality was uncovered pretty much coincidentally, it started a dash for unheard of wealth, unlike anything the galaxy had ever seen. With the discovery of this new substance, scientists began experimenting and observing the uses and advantages in everyday life.

It is also the main cause for all battles and raids taking place in that region. What makes the situation even worse is the wealth soaken and short-term thinking of the factional governments and commercial leaders. Taking whatever Mhaan-Tiq they find like crops, they have already drained most of the sectors outer rim of the resource. This has forced many to go deeper and deeper into the unheard of center of the sector.

There, people hope to find the source of Mhaan-Tiq, which has sparked numerous myths and legends, as well as the native occupant of the sector, which are so secluded that barely a Terran, Vossk or Nivelian has ever seen them. Some say, however, that they have been collecting Mhaan-Tiq for eons and therefore have already forgotten more about this resource than we will ever learn. But one thing is certain: now that they are aware of Mhaan-Tiq’s existence and capabilities, everything will change, that applies to politics and techniques as much as it does for our entire social

    As Wayne E. Lee points out in his book Waging War, modern warfare revolves around insurgencies. Due to the asymmetry of weaponry in these conflicts, insurgencies aim to make warfare as protracted as possible. As seen in the 1966 movie The Battle of Algiers, the insurgencies in Algeria use their limited capacity for conflict to their advantage, and fight the French descriptive instead of head on. The French army failed to deal with the insurgency effectively and thus public opinion in France began to change. Although the French won the Battle of Algiers, they would inevitably lose the Algerian War due to the public's response to the protracted war created by the insurency.…

    Misunderstandings and a lacking of cultural appreciation have caused many to fall into a misconception over the Middle East. With mass media only broadcasting the negative stories of the Middle East, a land of beauty, culture, and morality has been painted as a land of terror, destruction and anger from those who do not wish to understand the “why” behind it all. The three variables I believe impacted the Middle Eastern societies was first, the spread of Islam, Christianity and Judaism. Second being the migration of western imperialism in the Middle East, in which the British wanted to control the Middle East for selfish reasons. Finally, the Palestinian and Israeli conflict that started after the retreat of western imperialism, as well as…

    Neil Smith’s The Production of Nature from Uneven Development: Nature, Capital and the Production of Space (1987) draws on the work of Karl Marx to explore how the structure of capitalism has affected society’s relationship with the natural world as factor of production. Smith argues that our conceptions about nature as being separate from society are what enable us to exploit it. In order to explain this concept Smith divides nature into first nature and second nature. First nature, being the pristine ideal that many identify as the natural world, and second nature, that which is the product of human labor and often identified as an object of society, even though its origins are from the earth. Our inability to protect natural areas that are…
