The nation of Jin-Mei is the latest addition to the Federation, having joined only shortly before the Galenteans came into contact with the Amarr Empire. The Jin-Meis have a very rigorous caste-system, which sometimes clashes with the liberal ideals of the rest of the Federation. The Jin-Mei inhabit the Lirsautton system in Everyshore and seldom venture far from their homes. But that is now changing with the civil war raging between feuding Sang Do overlords, leaders of the Jin-Meis.When the Jin-Mei joined the Federation the social standings of Jin-Mei women were owefully inadequate for liberal democracy. Much has changed since then, not the least by Jin-Mei women themselves grabbing the torch of equal opportunities by both hands and carrying it forward with fervor.The Jin-Mei male is generally carefree and good-humored, though very class conscious. He is not very curious by nature, rather favouring stability and security. Most put much stock in generating good social appearance

Presidential Candidate Aguard Holds Political Rally for Jin-Mei
"When frontier settlements starve under Caldari blockades, and riots and panic spreads among those who feel they are voiceless, all our leaders can say is 'toughen up,'" said Aguard in her speech. "Fear is a powerful motivator, but it has failed to quell the governmental apathy toward the minorities of the Federation."
Many of Aguard's supporters agreed with this sentiment. "I am a strong supporter for maintaining the independent cultures of groups such as the Jin-Mei, Mannar and Intaki," says Cephan Langlier, a civil rights lawyer in Lirsautton who attended the rally. "I would be ecstatic to see a president who gives more than token support to the minority cultures of the Federation."
