{GOVERNORNAME}, the governor of {PLANETNAME}, is displeased with our interference and is threatening to join the {FOREIGNINFLUENCER}.They claim we interfere with their world, and there should be more freedom to govern themselves.Our advisors claim that doing so will increase Crime on {PLANETNAME}.
We are exiling Mors Ven from our empire. We believe he is a black market trader and information dealer. However, we are unable to prove it and he is well-liked by our citizens.If something happened to his shuttle while it was within your borders, that would be a fortunate accident.

{GOVERNORNAME}, the governor of {PLANETNAME} has been falsely accusing the {PLAYERFACTION:1} for all the issues on their world. From crime to disease their rhetoric has begun to galvanize the anger on the world in a way that may be beneficial in the short term, but dangerous in diplomatic relations.It has now come to a crossroads where the {PLAYERFACTION:1} expects you to denounce the hate speech, but this is likely to turn the anger against us.
Our territory contains a disputed region rich in resources. Unfortunately, a rival political faction on our world is also claiming it as their own. We are open to negotiation, but we need your support. If you back our claim, we will share the resources with you. However, if you remain neutral, we may not be able to maintain a friendly relationship.

{LEADERNAME} contacts you with news. A mining conglomerate has discovered a deposit of crystalized Elerium on {PLANETNAME}, a material vital for advanced energy systems and weaponry. The conglomerate offers two proposals. The first is to mine the resource using an AI based strip mining, which will bring immediate economic benefits but could harm the local environment and populace. The second is to mine it sustainably, ensuring the well-being of the planet but at a slower economic pace.
