There's no "indentured slavery".  There's just slavery.   Indentured servants couldn't be legally killed by their masters, they still had rights.   Slaves don't have rights.    

Guess what rights slaves in the Empire have?  None. 

The Federation has the largest population, biggest economy, and more military power than the Empire and Alliance put together.   They're just fine.  I love how people talk all this trash about the Federation when from everything in the game lore it just works exactly like the United States and EU do:   Powerful corporations competing in major industries, individual citizens guarunteed rights, democratically elected leadership, military-industrial complex.  

Anyone who says they're rather live in a Roman-style patron/client system is obviously ignorant of history and doesn't understand how brutally barbaric the Romans were.  All that "light of civilization" jazz only applied to the top 10% of Roman society.
