The Mech Touch

Chapter 6656 Gains and Losses in the Carmine Revolution

Many historians and other experts predicted that the Carmine Revolution may be the crisis that may put an end to the Age of Mechs in the Milky Way.

The Big Two would definitely be the first ones to refute this theory!

The Mech Trade Association and the Common Fleet Alliance may have been caught. off-guard by a crisis nobody saw coming, but they managed to stabilize the situation in the galaxy and prevent their reach and authority from crumbling even further.

When people looked at a map of the Milky Way Galaxy, they would see that the Big Two had lost a huge amount of territory.

If the galaxy was shaped like a pizza, then human space encompassed half of it. Of that half, the crust and much of the outer ring had been cut away from the direct control of the MTA and CFA!

At most, miniscule pieces of sauce and toppings had been left behind that somewhat proved that the Big Two still maintained a light and mostly nominal presence in the star sectors that they had left behind.

However, the wealth and resources of the Milky Way Galaxy was not evenly distributed like a proper pizza.

Much of the delicious toppings were sprinkled at and around the center of the pizza. Cutting away the outer ring might look like the Big Two lost a huge amount of territories, but they all happened to be largely devoid of toppings anyway, so it was not as if the MTA and CFA lost a lot of wealth and power!

In fact, there were those among the mechers and fleeters that actually preferred the new status quo. They always thought of the galactic rim and the more remote parts of the galactic heartland to be a burden.

They were not entirely wrong, as it usually cost significantly more funding and resources to keep the vast and sparse regions of the outer half of the galaxy under control.
