In Frontier, and hopefully in ED as well, the Empire focused on biotech and the Federation relied on robotics.

If I was on the design or writing teams, I'd try to push for different aspects of trans-humanism. The Federals seem to be the bio-conservatives in the setting.

That would be very cool.
I'd love to see what my cmdr might be able to use from these different technologies.

Yes well someone has decided that this will be a good idea.

Biotech? A fancy word for 'Slave'. xD

Touche. It's a bit Newspeak isn't it.

In Finland the current government declared that they will emphasize biotech and renewables, and what they actually meant was increased logging of the country's forests.

I guess Germany can safely be put onto the Robotics.
While Biotech seems to be slowly making a Debut in Germany as well. And Academies have started to Pick up on it.
Alot of the Biotech Topics are met with Distrust by the German Population.
Robotics on the other Hand are well established. Hardly any Factory works without advanced Robotics to Support or even entirely Replace Workers.

I still remember my Schooltime 10 years ago.
Our School had an Partnership on this Topic with an Japanese School. Which worked by Students from our School Building and Enhancing smaller Robotic Parts which were then Programmed and Controlled over the Internet from a School in Japan.


As an sidenote. While I am not from Japan. I would assume they can be put on the Robotics side as well
