Plus they have to deal with all the modern era issues with electrical production and transmission, international commerce, the intratubes, satellite surveillance, corporate espionage, copyright laws.


Their male-dominated population is rapidly becoming a significant issue. I'm not entirely sure what the actual solution is but I have a few ideas of my own. One way or another, it's a cultural issue that they will have to directly* address before they can indirectly address.
