Ambition, suspicion, influence, thanatophobia: represented by a Thomas Hobbes' quote

Project Conquest: The game should invoke feelings of wanting to succeed in your world, by various different metrics of success, while relying hugely on the help of others, and fearing attack or betrayal from them.

NATURE hath made men so equal in the faculties of the body and mind, as that, though there be found one man sometimes manifestly stronger in body or of quicker mind than another, yet when all is reckoned together the difference between man and man is not so considerable as that one man can thereupon claim to himself any benefit to which another may not pretend as well as he. For, as to the strength of body, the weakest has strength enough to kill the strongest, either by secret machination or by confederacy with others that are in the same danger with himself.
