How far do you want to go back. How about the O'Niell invasion and occupation of Ulster.
Anyway parallels are slight. Sartarites fight to prevent a pervasive religion and culture from destroying theirs, where as the PIRA (not the IRA they know what the word permanent means) fight to impose one.

Orlanth vs Lunars
Huh, Loren where did you get that from. What other Evil Empire is more well know, would be a better example even the Nazi's most of had the their shady grey characters as oppossed to pure black ones.

Here are my views and probably the last I will write about.

An imparital Gloranthan observer :- The Invasion is a Bad Thing I would want some to destroy my culture.

An Orlanthi clan member:- The Emperor is Evil but I am sure some of those people he has duped are nice people. Just look at those Teloo Nori women, they told nice stories and made a mean bean soup. Its just a pity Ragnar the Hairy came down from the Six Sisters and chopped them up. And its an even bigger pity when they guy with the bendy sword came with his mates and killed ever 7th man, women and child in Toena. Of course we heard from Ragnar at the block. He said that he would back and sort them out too.

Me:- Its a Bad Thing. I want to be an Orlanthi.

Better Dead than Red.
