Its just like a Cruel king and his People. The people belief that their king can bring them enlightment and Power.

The harkonnen follow this i think. They all know that the Planet will fall apart if they dont have a baron.

Or think about the ways of a Communist Party in power!

They keep running everything with the help of their army and the secret agencies.... (Sadly every Eastern Euroean ex-socialist country knows the ways of the communists when solving a problem...  :( )

The communism is based on dictature + strong army... Soviets fell apart because people didn't like it ( Afganistan, Chechnya) BUT the Harkos seem to like the whole thing... exept da vilagers... Population of Giedi Prime:

1. Baron

2. Military

3. villagers

The Soviet Union didn't fell apart because the people didn't like it. It fell apart because Gorbachov (or I don't know the spelling of his name in Eng.) intented to reform his empire. But you cannot reform a total dictature...

I don't want to start a political fight about the SU. All the countries in Eastern-Europe know what happened and I don't wish the same to anyone else...

Alex: what do you mean? What is this population-thing?

I mean there'r only 3 ranks of people or maybe even 2:

1.Military

2.Villagers

3. Slaves (maybe)

When Caladan population'd be:

1.Nobles

2.Merchants

3. Fishermen

4. Villagers

5. Some military

Do you see the difference? ;)

Soviets fell apart because people didn't like it ( especialy Lithuanians (yes I live there)) so they wanted to disconect from the Soviet union, but then Gorbachov sent tanks to Vilnius (capital) so he didn't allow them  to disconect... Then more countries disconected : Estonia, Latvia etc... The Russian military was weak from war in Afganistan... They lost about 10% of theyr teritory... Gorbachov had to give it up... 8)

And imagine that RA2 fantasizes so much about the Sovjets with their Tesla coils. :)

Anyways this is bit offtopic i think.

Harkonnen are not sovjets. The ordos not..... erm... nerds?

And the Atreides.. are wimps :)

I know this comes really late, but you've got it a little inaccurate Jacob.

This is how it should be.

"Fear, is an efficient tool of management".

(Seen the movie where you fail? I failed on purpose just to see what would happen. It's quite funny actually.) ;D
