This seems to be summed up in general as:
- Convert? Great! Best way into the real halls of power, although the legislature and ministries have spots for those who do not.
- Mind your own business? Okay, your taxes get raised for the draft exemption, you gotta keep the Call To Prayer down, be best if you learned the national language, etc.
- Leave? Door, backside, you know the deal.
- Raise the flag of revolt? Now we have problems, but the next town over will not suffer for it.
