Jim Crow isn't a person but a set of laws used to restrict the rights of African-Americans in a time before I was born.

Barring us from marrying outside our own race, being made to go through a unpassable screening process in order to vote, seperate living and commerical arrangements based upon what race you belonged to, and in one of the more odd ones being told that we weren't allowed to run.

That sounds... like the Empire. Without the running disposition.

Methuselah and Terran can't marry, Huey, and Terrans don't have political relevance in the Empire's affairs. While we are supposed to live in different City district. My uncle and I preferred to spend our times walking among the Terrans, but this isn't usual inside the Nobility.

It's things like that which we've realized can cause a government to falter. Though like I've said even though they made changes they still make steps backward when it comes to progress.

There are reasons in the Empire of why this was disposed, Huey, even if I don't like them.

Methuselahs live for centuries while Terrans' lifespans are one third of ours. Our country has endured centuries and we are ruled by Her Majesty, Empress Augusta Vladika, who has outlived us, Methuselahs.
