As for today, agree. But back the day, when 1st trilogy came in, everyone over Europe had enough of eastern imperialism. The west were the good ones, shinny knights against red bads.

Today, red and bads are on west or far east, many places. For “rebel scums”, every unit were a human, in brainless clone empire, following orders of Emperor was everything. More a fight for humanity over mass flood, than pointing this or that irl place.
