Talk:3 Charlie

Country
Since when has Reach been a country? The colonies have some degree of sovereignty, but ultimately, they're under control of the UEG, or during the war, the UNSC (as per "emergency military" government mentioned in the Bestiarum). I've never heard the human colonies being referred to as independent in the same sense as countries today, especially considering how even Earth countries aren't really independent anymore in the same sense as today. If the colonies were really independent "countries", why would they want to break free of Earth's influence in the first place? Plus, since they're UNSC Army, they answer to the UEG (like the UNSC itself). --Jugus (Talk  | Contribs ) 14:02, August 17, 2010 (UTC)
