was talking in a discord server about this but imagine if a) one of the many star wars revolutionaries was actually revolutionary and said "maybe we don't need a giant centralized government to unite as many planets as possible in the galaxy" and the galaxy turned toward a decentralized or planetary-system based system of government to manage things like space lines and the like. otherwise there'd be no Supreme Chancellor or Senate, really.
this isn't without its own risks. multiple united planetary systems can easily lead to an allegiance/arms race of people allying and panicking when others ally and panic. one planetary system/allegiance could be facing an internal conflict that others may either ignore or try to exploit. these systems won't be obligated to care if something is happening in another system (not that senators in the republic really cared about other senators' planets, but you know).
but considering the role the jedi played in the republic, imagine if the jedi Order had multiple representative temples around the galaxy. imagine the internal conflicts in the Jedi Order if two or more systems had competing interests, but the Representative Jedi were still obligated to help their own systems.

Right so the Commonwealth's in the shitter and has yet to develop an organised government because the Institute actively stopped them once and has been tacitly sabotaging every attempt ever since. New California had a government but it's in the shitter now and has yet to redevelop an organised government because Hank (arguably, Vault-Tec doctrine) fucked them up by nuking the capital, decapitating the government, and putting all of Boneyard in total blackout.
But why the fuck is the Pitt the closest thing to centralised government there is in the Capital Wasteland? The Enclave only relocated there relatively-ish recently, and yet they're even more fucked than Boston!

see i love the themes and aesthetics of fallout and in general enjoy the games i’ve played but as a native elder scrollser it’s so weird adjusting from like 9 major cities to like. two large towns and a handful of other settlements

i can’t shake the feeling that the characters on GoT were waaaaaay more engaging than the ones on HOTD right from the get-go
(i had read the books and was eagerly awaiting the show, so maybe i was biased, but also maybe not?? maybe the GOT characters were just a zillion times better??)
