The soldiers are convinced that an affront to their ruler (who is the embodiment of their culture and the face of their society) is an insult to them (or perhaps the opportunity to get educational benefits for galactic college was attractive).You may be able to get some motivation from Twitter, YouTube, rap beefs, and how the fans/followers of various celebrities fight with each other based upon their emotional investment in the conflicts between the celebrities themselves. In some cases, it doesn't even matter that two sides have virtually identical beliefs; it's enough that they self-identify as being in conflict with the other groups based upon superficial reasons (i.e. red vs blue; XBox vs Playstation; Coke vs Pepsi).</blockquote>
