And? They have less resources, people, and economic might backing them. As well as being in the banking industry (Which is still the core of your faction) which can rise and fall depending on relations.

If the Rin ever embargoed the IC it would collapse pretty swiftly seeing as a bank and a corporation they depend on outside resources... which the Rin don't need to rely on.

A bank can never compete with an army with an hope of success for long. (Banking isn't the core any more ; I expanded a lot...)

They have I'd say a roughly equal amount of resources, and economic might. The Rin are on a full war footing ; it seems to escape you that wars are damn expansive, and drain resources. The IC don't have to worry about that.

That makes no sense. If the Rin embargoed the IC it would have no noticable effect, seeing as they are economicaly speaking isolationist. You seem to have no understanding of economics, really. Kinda like if North Korea embargoed the US.

It isn't a Bank, first of all. It's an international mega-corporation with the resources of the galaxy at it's fingertips.
