Because of the support her alliance with the Tukeras provides her, Margaret has had a unique opportunity to combine political and economic methods in preserving and strengthening her faction. However, she has been criticized as having an inadequate grasp of social and cultural issues, and a tendency to see her subjects as components of an economic equations rather than as people.

Margaret has been the favorite of the survivors of the 1116 Imperial Moot for some time now. However, as this body was dissolved by Lucan's order in 1116, it has had no formal opportunity to voice its preference.

A large number of the anti-Lucan nobles of the pre-Rebellion Moot have fled to Margaret's Stronghold, where they still meet regularly as Margaret's advisors. These have all long since been stripped of their lands and titles by Lucan, and are popularly known as the "Moot Moot."

Due to Margaret's economic policies, her faction was the strongest to address the onslaught of Virus. She formed the Varian Line, a cost effective, though ruthess defense lines designed to give as little to Vampire fleets as possible. Understanding her situation, she launched Operation Bright Alliance in 1145. The success in liberating worlds allowed her to form the Glimmerdrift Alliance in 1147 with remnants of her faction, the Khuur League and the Grand Duchy of Stoner. This alliance lasted until its collapse when Stoner burned in 1163.
