Section 721 - Barbecue

Cangqiong Star had only one sovereignty, which was the highly centralized Slan Dynasty that ruled the entire planet.

By comparison, Blue Star had many more sovereignties, approximately a hundred or so, not quite two hundred. There were also some quasi-sovereign regions, but these were neither here nor there, ultimately not significant enough to make a presence, making the political environment of Blue Star almost the exact opposite of that of Cangqiong Star.

Despite this, the bureaucrats of both civilized planets were quite similar. Being in Jianghu, trying to scrape a living, was just how things were. Privately, they even ridiculed each other. One side was a decaying feudal imperialism, with dictatorship at its core, while the other was a sluggish and bloated federal republic, a collection of clowns. They thoroughly enjoyed such verbal sparring.

Which system was superior was a matter for scoundrels and fools, after all, politicians have never been good throughout history.
