"Timid or aggressive, they all fall sooner or later. That is why the best way in the long run for a nation to maintain itself is to resist the imperial urge, no matter how seductive empire-building may be; it only leads to ruin in the long run.

-- Friend.. this ain't no "urge" it is a necessity. The only other choice is to let your so-called "subhuman" culture grow and get the "imperial urge"..which seems to already be taking place.

Wow! That "imperial urge" invasion is gonna require one hell of a lot of highjacked planes. Not to mention the logistics problems of support by their dinghy navies.
