Hello, had some mix ups this weekend, all rectified now... Foundation moves to the second book of the trilogy, Foundation and Empire, but first what happened last week in "The Merchant Princes"
The Foundation has expanded through the use of Scientism and economics. Three Foundation vessels have vanished near the Republic of Korell, a nation suspected of technological development. Trader Hober Mallow is sent to uncover information on their technology and hopefully find the missing ships. While at Korell, Mallow convinces Korell's leader Commdor Asper Argo to purchase Foundation technology. Mallow also discovers that Korell still maintains some relics of the Empire such as atomic hand guns. But he also notes the Republic's decrepit condition and lack of modern technology. On return to Terminus, he is considered a traitor for not spreading Scientism to Korell, although an unlikely development clears Mallow allowing him to win an election for Mayor. Years later Korell goes to war against The Foundation, Mallow as Mayor confidently severs supplies of goods that Korell's people have grown accustomed to, thus starting a revolt against their own government in favour of the Foundation.

ReplyDeleteHello Anon, yes it seems they've been trying to for some time, it surely offers enough spin offs as in new time frames, alas i think the execs likely consider it too complicated for average joe, decades of dumbing down the audience has taken its toll..
ReplyDeletebest of luck,
