Is there a way out of this?

[nesrall]

Even with all the great advice in this forum I'm pretty sure I screwed myself with my racial setup when I created my empire. I'm in a game 1.49 & looking now I see I chose neutral instead of friendly or bloodthirsty...Well I have a couple trade treaties & everything was fine until I got sneak attacked at one side of my empire....now....even though I've driven the enemy back & have actually started to destroy a few of his planets in his systems...over 50% of my planets are rioting (even systems 10 systems away from the front) & obviously without being able to produce more ships & the lack of resources my empire is in trouble....since nuetral scorns treaties is there any chance that breaking all treaties would be enough to calm my people?...or am I basically F***ed & I've learned yet another valueable lesson?
