Never got what people liked about it. It's an awful place, run by a pretty totalitarian monarchy that is even more questionable than those we got in RL. The background means, that they were there the whole time, this super scifi nation and just let for example the colonialism of Africa and all the slavery happen without care. The whole cultural mixture is also quite odd. I mean, when you would do the same in Europe for example, long befor the industrial revolution, you wouldn't let them run around like Wikings or whatever, since something like that would of course have a massive impact in absolute every way, including cultural and set apart this nation from others in their whole devolepment over the centuries.
It overall felt kind of racist I must say, like "yeah, those Africans, they would stil be that way even with high tech and act like savages".
I mean, what would people say when you take the same in Europe for example and when that thigh tech nation wants a new king (why ever it would have a king to begin with) it's decided by a bar fight. Would raise some eye brows, but hey, it's Africans, they would for sure do something that stupid, right?
