What makes an Empire evil or bad?
The definition is simply that it's ruled by one person, but nowhere does it state that it's also inherently bad.
So, what makes it bad?
Why are we assuming Sen Devadatta is evil when from what I've read in the history books and from the locals, all they did was shut their doors. We don't know the reason yet either.
It's understandable to be wary and suspicious, but I don't think it's a good idea to go in believing we're going to be arrested or worse.

I just hope the Empress isn't compromised, I guess. I've dealt with corruption... and I just don't want to deal with it again. I have to hope.
However, I know if I'm wrong, I'll still stand up against it.
