[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] "Everyone knew the Founders existed, but didn't know what they looked like." Not necessarily. It was also quite possible that the Founders were in some way mythical, either from the beginning (there never were any Founders, but they got incorporated into a sort of state religion, ala, serendipitously, Romulus and Remus), or in the sense that they still exist. (Imagine some segment of American society believing that Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Franklin, and the rest were still alive and still covertly running things.) As I recall we hear skepticism about the existence of the Founders from actual Dominion members. (Which raises some questions about what the Dominion looks like, as a political entity, from the inside.) Re Remans: They don't have a lot to recommend them as compelling characters, to be sure, but how exactly do they mess up continuity? I can't recall anyone saying "The Romulans got to their new planetary system and there was no one else there." For that matter, a lack of subject species has been a common criticism of the Romulans and Klingons, so at least in principle introducing a couple doesn't sound like a bad idea. [/QB][/QUOTE]
