The Qsaress of the planet Niobe has diverted shipments of food and medical supplies sent from the United Interplanetary Council to be given to the population of Niobe, in order to increase her government's trade profit. As one of the outraged citizens of the planet, take part in a revolution that will change your world forever... or be shot in the back of the head by your opressor for trying.
Criticisms and plot twist ideas would be appreciated. It's going to be loosely based on the Soviet revolution as far as actual workings of the revolt.
