Alderism is belief in a liberal dictatorship, wherein a democratically elected legislature has some authority and an unelected enlightened dictator serves as the Chief Executive. A meritocratic bureaucracy is expected to run the day-by-day affairs of the government. Within democratic governments, Alderism is an ideology pushing for more power to the Executive and depoliticization of the courts and bureaucracy. Within an autocracy, Alderism is typically sympathetic to the dictator, and highly supportive, encouraging their power.

Alderism calls for the provision of high quality social services within a capitalist economy and a high level of personal and economic freedom. Most of all, Alderism advocates for equality among all people regardless species, races, national origins, religions, sexual orientations, gender identities, and other demographic quality, with protections for these groups and high level of social justice. This is based partially on ideals of freedom and partially on meritocracy.

In foreign and military affairs, Alderism advocates for a strong military draft as well as the high funding of the military. Though peaceful diplomacy is emphasized above military conflict, as well as the reduction of barriers to free trade and travel, there is an element of militarism and imperialism inherent in the ideology, mirroring Alderman's own imperial expansions as Lord Protector. Territorial expansion was made through threats and war when money and offers of protection were not sufficient, and the Lerasian Empire under Alderist rule was guided to its territorial peak shortly before its ultimate collapse.

Avant-gardism, sometimes called Avant-garde Galactism or Accelerationism is the the culmination of several political philosophies from Galactism to Futurism hoping to overcome the many problems of the 21st century. Primarily, it represents resistance, a resistance of the past and the mistakes made and the future, it’s uncertainty, and the knowledge that crises, wars, and poverty will only remain a constant of unaddressed.

The ideology preaches aggressive and unrelenting technological and societal progress, hoping to quickly conquer todays problems and establish a prosperous future, as well as putting the collective society over one individual. Where Avant-gardism differs from old school Galactism is an abandonment of planned economies, socialism, and rule by scientists in favor of nationalism, state capitalism, and ideological fervor. Warp speed modernization will lead to national renewal, and national leaders must be strong and dogmatic in their pursuit of progress and rationality. Avant-gardism does maintain some social tenents from Galactism, namely a sense of populism and a tolerance of minorities of all kinds, as past hatred’s and stigmas are viewed as irrationalities based on less enlightened views. The populist policies cover two points. First, the desire to see a prosperous society, and secondly, to ensure that the populace is loyal to the nation’s leader, the party, and its goals. Above all, internal security is paramount as nothing can stand in the way of the nations velocity.

Rhouvois Avant-gardism incorporates several unique traits. First off, it’s extreme militancy. The Rhouvois Militia, the Escadron d’Acceleration, is a large part of the party’s support base, and was a large part in securing the party’s power. Civic militancy and participation in the military is increasingly glorified. Secondly, Rhouvois Avant-gardism is very Republican, which is defined within Rhouvois as supporting a strong, leader of a three-branch government overseeing an elected legislature built on egalitarianism, along with a hatred of landed titles and monarchies. Democracy is a distraction and unnecessary to maintaining the Republic.

Last, the Rhouvois views on religion and sexuality. The LGBT community is supported and encouraged within the Avant-garde, and forms a core support base for the party. On the other hand, Rhouvois avant-gardists have negative views on Sanguis Christianity, viewing it as an unneeded superstition standing in the way of progress and giving cause to still existing monarchs in the west. Other religions, such as Islam and Kahlerism, are viewed much more neutrally as they are often challenges to the old Sanguis church. Of note, the Rhouvois Avant-garde is highly artistic in nature and participates in much of the art and music scenes within the country, making do to participate in cultural projects and events.

Futurism had its origins in Lazio after the collapse of the Italic Union in 2032. In the year 2033, a Radical Semi-Authoritarian Progressive militia garnered support through rousing speeches and promises of renewed Sicilian State, which was more than competing Federationists or Syndicalists could materialize. One of the many rump states formed out of the Sicilian Tragedy, Lazio implemented a different version of Avantism than their counterparts in the Rhouvois lands. Lazian Avantism focuses less on the liberalization and strictly anti-Sanguism that Rhouvois Avantism does, and rather a pure dissolution of all religious structure within the state as it is believed that any high deity could be seen as above the importance of the nation and its objectives. While slightly more oppressive on matters of religion than the Northern Avantist movement, it is by far the most radical when it comes to political opposition. Any leftist or centrist ideological thoughts are thoroughly rooted out and are replaced with Nationalist tendencies and Orchestral precision.

However, if one adheres to party beliefs and does not wish against the will of the state, then their private life is almost completely respected. Surveillance monitors and undermining counter-espionage is almost nonexistent within Sicilian territory. At the very epicenter of all things Futurist, however, precision in key. Symphonic elements are integrated into ideology, and high command positions express a belief in almost impossible levels of precise advancement, leading citizens to believe that if one single error occurs, the entire system will not turn on itself but rather be ineffective. Therefore, the Caretaker and his political entourage push speedy efficiency in both militaristic, industrial, and diplomatic affairs.

Borism is a minor ideology developed following the death of Harald Bor. Bor was the last Speaker of the Republic of Lerasi, who took full power in a nonviolent coup d'etat in which he declared himself the Sovereign of Lerasi. In this system, Bor acted as an absolute monarch, where the crown was passed down to chosen Ministers in a non-hereditary succession system. Although holding the trappings of a dictatorship, it presented itself as a monarchy, and called itself a Kingdom.

After Bor's death and that of his successor, George Pine, the crown passed finally to Louis Alderman, who reformed Lerasi to bring back elections. Under these elections, the Borist party was formed, advocating for a return to the monarchic system, placing the next legal successor to Alderman in power instead. The revanchist rhetoric of Borism lends itself well to the Borist tendency for extreme nationalism. Other than that, policies of the Borist party were limited and typically right-wing.

Origin: Nova-Columbia / Krionik (Rouental)

Confederal Monarchism arose in the nation of Krionik, evolving from the core aspects of Militariat Republicanism to rule the country with a slightly different vision. The government system placed a High King at the center of public life, a largely ceremonial role subservient to the confederate Principalities of Krionik. These principalities served as the source of effective governance in Krionik, although their Princes largely exercised their influence on a national level as well, through the formation of national political coalitions in a legislature granting the Princes equal vote in the representative legislation of the nation.

Confederal Monarchism as an ideology largely amounts to the advocacy for Confederal Monarchism as a system of governance, although on a smaller scale it might support more devolution to subdivision territories and more of a shift towards monarchic or dictatorial power overall. Confederal Monarchism notably maintains a streak of Militariat ideology, a holdover from the previous government system of Krionik, which never truly died, but only transformed. As Krionik collapsed shortly after the implementation of Confederal Monarchism, the world has yet to see a long-term application of its beliefs

Federal Communist Republicanism is a left-wing ideology founded in ImperFeudal which supported a democratically elected government presiding over a federal state under the economic ideology of communism, much as the name suggests. More than that, FCR ideology was associated with strong militarism and nationalism, the threat of which led the neighboring nation of Lerasi to invade ImperFeudal, upon the electoral success of this ideology. Of course, documents uncovered later revealed Lerasi rigged the election to justify invasion so it could claim ImperFeudalian lands.

After the defeat of the regime in this war, the occupied territory led to the rise of Federal Communist Republicanism within Lerasi. This ideology would only grow during the Lerasian elections, where their massive lead was suspected to be the result of election tampering, although there was and still is no proof of such fraud, thus leading to the Lerasian Lord Protector, Louis Alderism, banning the party from politics. This, combined with the rise of the Fascist party, which quickly developed a private military, led to harsh reaction from the FCR party, which developed its own military, attacking Fascist party bases and eventually launching an all-out civil war during the collapse of Lerasi.

Origin: Kampf Empire

Federationism advocates for the weakening of the central federal power structure of a given government, pushing for strong subunit states holding most of the power in the government system, while the remnants of the federal government largely serve to keep the peace and facilitate cooperation between subdivision territories. Though it is similar to a confederation structure, there is no choice component to membership, setting it apart.

Much like typical Federations, a Federationist state keeps power over the military and international trade in the hands of the federal government, ensuring that the survival of the nation is contingent on the national institutions. Moreover, to meet these ends, the concurrent power to tax allows the internal states to govern while the national government funded its own duties. During times of crisis, Federationalists do support devolution of power to the federal government. Federationalist systems typically only work when the people are disassociated with the national government and a charismatic Federal President maintains the stability of the united nation.

Although it was born as a political party in Kampfia, where it sought to dissolve the modern Kampfian government and constitution in the pursuit of allied, but independent Süd-Ostpacifica Deutsche States, the movement took root in Lerasi as well during its First Congressional Election, exploiting common religious and ethnic ties in Lerasi's eastern lands as well as the ambitions of state Governors. In this election, the Federationist party sought to expand the powers of the Lerasian States. The collapse of Lerasi was partially initiated by a Federationist coup d'etat attempt.

Origin: Ragea

Fortianism is a militant party which originated in Ragea. Paranoid of invasion or military attack coming at any moment, Fortians advocate for obsessively arming the citizens, greatly expanding the military, and a military-focused governance strategy which pays no mind to the wellbeing of the citizens beyond their use as military assets. A radical offshoot of the Gathering Party, another Ragean party, which itself split off from the extremist wing of a tamer militarist Unity Party, the Fortians of Ragea manipulated the people into fear and paranoia to cement their rise to power. The party was outlawed, and its remnants were cast across Valsora. One of those remnants found its way to Lerasi, wherein it formed a coalition with an Isolationist political party to advocate for militant isolationism in the First Congressional Election.

Origin: Plazland / Plajia

Galactism is a political and social ideology which emphasizes the pursuit of science and technology and values education and intelligence in society. Great leaders of Galactist ideology are typically experts in certain academic fields, especially math and science. Galactism is separate from technocracy because, rather than rule by scientists and science, it promotes first and foremost scientific advancement or, as the Galactists called it, preparing for the "next step" of civilization. Galactism is easily paired with other ideologies and forms of government, such as communism and democracy.

In traditional Galactist parties, the unity of national identity and the improvement of education is paired with Jobism, the assignment of lower class jobs upon birth, which can only be altered through the pursuit of higher education. This totalitarian structuring of society is largely abandoned in modern Galactist groups, however. Militarism and expansionism are also traditional Galactist values, and nationalist ideals of unity tend to make way for discrimination against ethnic minorities as well. The application of these values varies by nation.

The ideology was founded in 1978 by Zinon, and adopted in 1993 by the Plajian government, ending 300 years of monarchical rule. The original Galactist party, led by Sagadeyev Artem, advocated for harsh social control by the party and a shift from agricultural fields to more industrial fields. After Artem's death in 2009, Zorin Vasil took charge of the Galactist party and became the Premier, adopting more liberal ideas into the Galactist ideology, such as by increasing access to education. Furthermore, Vasil brought back the monarchy to ease tensions between liberals and conservatives, demonstrating the ideology's flexibility.

In 1980, San Sierran citizen Leonardo Botín adapted Galactism for San Sierran politics to promote traditional Galactist values, including Jobism. In 1986, after developing and espousing San Sierran Galactism, the first Galactist party in San Sierra was founded, el Camino al Galactismo. It was only in 2000, however, that Camino al Galactismo was accepted as a political party by the San Sierran Republic. This was short lived however, as the 2005 Iron Fist Era saw the ban of all political parties by the dominant regime. In 2019, the return of democracy saw the rise of Galactism once again, with political theorists Martín Espinar and Esteban Villacrés taking over Camino al Galactismo. For its founder, San Sierran Galactism is often known as Leonardist Galactism.

Increased globalism in 2029 soon led to the rise of Galactism in other nations. Kampfian Galactism promoted increased taxes and the further development of the military, healthcare system, and education, incorporating traditional Galactist militarism and expansionism into the ideology. In the Directorate, technocratic rule models some elements of Galactism, especially in the presence and expansive influence of the Directory of Science, but its influence is weak due to the country's history of isolationism and prideful rejection of foreign political ideas.

Hispanic Nationalism is an ideology that rose in the former ImperFeudalian lands occupied by Lerasi during the MCR War and the later transfer of enclaved territory, as well as in the Hispanic-dominated Dolorem peninsula, a former colony of San Sierra. Hispanic Nationalism is a form of ethno-nationalism which promotes the Hispanic minorities of a state, especially when those minorities are particularly large in number or subject to discriminatory policies. Hispanic Nationalism promotes the creation of a Hispanic-dominated ethno-state to secure the rights and freedoms of the Hispanic peoples within a state. Strong diplomatic relations with other Hispanic states is also encouraged by believers of this ideology. In the case of Lerasi, ties to ImperFeudal, San Sierra, and the República de Honor were emphasized electorally. Although Lerasi did not discriminate against Hispanic minorities, its role in the MCR war and the territorial acquisition of ImperFeudal, especially with the relocation of the ImperFeudalian nation-state, promoted ethnic tension and unrest.

Industrialism is a political philosophy focusing on the expansion of industry and the economy as their main focus, regardless of other issues. Industrialists seek to pass policies expanding the profits of major businesses and industries, which is often achieved through deregulation and subsidies. Promoting domestic industry, Industrialists tend to support the local production of consumer goods such as clothing or furniture. As the name implies, Industrialists typically support greater industrialization and other modernization techniques, such as urbanization and the adoption of technology.

Ruseniyan Industrialists were particularly interested in promoting the automobile industry, but under Industrialism, manufacturing in general is very prominent. In the nation of Lerasi, where Industrialism took hold during the First Congressional Election, Industrialism was tied to major businesses who sought capitalistic expansion and the favoring of economically productive regions of the country. To achieve significant electoral power, the Lerasian Industrialist Party merged with a liberal technocratic party, so that it could further promote its agenda with little cost to its ideological stance.

Katenalism is an ideology which promotes values of a strong, unified family unit as well as nationalist ideas of contribution to the state and national unity. In a Katenalist system of government, prominent families take center stage in political life, serving as a form of political aristocracy devoid of monarchist or economic elitist associations. Katenalism thrives in democracies more than dictatorships, as it promotes popular sovereignty and the regular change in rulers, which is difficult to stably pursue in a dictatorial regime.

Katenalism was proliferous in its advertisement and spread to other countries. Nations such as Kampfia, Ostaria, and the Communist Commonwealth had seen the rise of Katenalist elements seeking to promote their ideas through protests, civil disobedience, and the spread of the ideology's World Charter, whereas nations like Fraxhemark, Sminishia, and Lerasi even accepted Katenalist political parties within their elections.

Little Dabristanism is an ideology originating from the dissatisfied citizens of Ratome during Zephyrinus's Papacy. This ideology posits that the Islamic Republic of Dabiristan, now the Al-Sha'ab, is one of the greatest civilizations in Usnistani History. Followers of this ideology seek to reform their nation to follow the example of Dabiristan, largely through modernization and democratization.

Little Dabristanism seeks the diminished influence of the church in politics as an institution, but follows religion as moral guidance for the passage of laws. As such, religious extremist policies, such as abortion bans and the oppression of LGBTQIA+ citizens, are ingrained in the ideology's platform. Furthermore, gun control is taken to the extreme of banning all firearms from private ownership.

The "Little Dabiristani Organization," a political party of this ideology within Ratterra, marched on the palace of Pope Alfonso shortly after the formation of the Federation of the Lafari, forcing the Pope to grant the Organization control over the Ratholic government. After Alfonso was assassinated, this power was used to reform the nation into a republic, with Little Dabiristanism as the ruling ideology.

Mazicracy is a system of governance in which every county in a state subunit elects a representative to a state legislature, which then elects representatives to one on a national level, the number of representatives being proportionate to the population of the state. The national government is granted authority over taxes, war, healthcare, and education on a grand level, whereas the state governments operate government services, such as transportation services and registration, hospitals, postal services, and other infrastructure. Moreover, local governments provide housing, food, and security. As such, Mazicracy is an inherently socialist form of government

The only position elected nationally is the Mazicrat, whose job is to facilitate relations between the state and national governments as well as maintaining checks and balances on the national legislature to ensure democratic representation within the national legislature. To remove the Mazicrat, the national legislature may vote to hold a referendum of the citizenry.

Mazicracy as a system of governance has been historically seen in its origin nation of Antarritah but, in other countries, a theoretical Mazicratic ideology would likely arise in a federation, and would advocate for more socialist policies, more power to state and local governments, and cooperative federalism within the national and state system.

Militariat Republicanism was the main form of governance of the ancient nation-state of Nova-Columbia, even as it transitioned culturally to consolidate as the nation-state of Krionik, before finally being replaced by Confederal Monarchism towards the end of the Kriosaivak lifespan. Militariat Republicanism is a system of government, but as an ideology can be interpreted as the advocacy for such a system of government.

Under Militariat Republicanism, the military has significant codified powers within the formal structure of the government. The Executive of the Militariat Republic of Nova-Columbia (later, Krionik) was governed by a council of Marshals, elected by the citizens with the prerequisite of five years of civil service. There was a Marshal for each branch of the military as well as two popularly-elected Marshals with no military service prerequisite, and a Marshal appointed by the legislature. Amongst themselves, the Marshals elected a First Marshal, who served as a "First Among Equals" guiding authority.

Regionism is the idea of putting the ideas of the individual and of industry to better the society or nation. A combination of several ideologies including socialism, and liberalism. Firstly, It puts an individual's worth based on their character, merit, service, and actions, not judging on race, gender, ethnicity, religion, or status. It then focuses the individual on how they can contribute to society, for both what they are good at, and what they enjoy. Secondly, it attributes to industry, using the same merit and character system to determine wage and position in the selected industry. As well as this, it also controls were a specific company can produce, where it can sell, and the price of the produce, to severely lessen the chance of competition between companies, and decrease inflation. This will, in theory, close the wage gap. Finally, the military will also deal with the same merit system as of society and industry, but the military itself in Regionism is a defensive force, not offensive. Each unit in the military, as the individual to society, will have a role to play in the bigger picture, in this case, the military itself. Each military personnel will be used to both defend the nation and uphold the law.

The Party System should not exist. It has caused not a representation of the people, but a representation of a people: those who hold economical and influential power. This is the fault in most democratic governments, that of constitutional republics. Regionism outlaws political parties, and as such, makes the representative represent the people, not a company or faction.

As stated in communist ideal, the “proletariat” is always suffering because of a “bourgeois dictatorship”, the proletariat in the Regionism definition is not just the average worker, but the average citizen, those who work to better society as a whole. The “bourgeois dictatorship” in the definition in Regionism are those, neither a dictatorship of the minority or the majority, who limit individuality to the populace, and only hire those they like, not by merit or service.

This form of government may be considered totalitarian because it seems to control all aspects of both the individual and society with a merit system, but that would be false. Regionism is meant to act as a base for the individual and society, a crutch for the poor to rise on and the rich to act upon. Regionism is a base for the worker and the soldier to produce and be recognized for his ability, not his status, power, religion, gender or race. It is a base for the individual to realize his talent. It may be the individual who chooses their job, talent or not, but Regionism helps them have something to support on.

Regionism is neither a left wing or right wing ideal because of its balance between restraint and freedom. While the industry is both regulated on where it can produce and sell, it is also given opportunity against competition. This helps the individual because without industrial competition, inflation does not increase as much as a capitalist society, and it lets pricing be standardized for the production cost and true value of a product, not just a competing rate. The individual is both regulated by having to contribute meaningfully to a regionistic society, but is free to use whatever they can to contribute, from what talents they have, to just what they love in life. Their original status also dictates what they can do to benefit society. An example is if they are rich, they support the poor until they can get on their feet, and if they are poor they use their individuality to strive to greatness.

The middle class in Regionism is considered the balance in society, what society should be. Neither rich nor poor, having a steady income, a simple yet happy life is one of the ideology’s goals. Those who are rich use their standing to help the poor reach middle class hood, while with donation they digress closer to the middle class. The merit based income increases the balance of the middle class, thus lining up with what's left with inflation.

Origin: Maneiras

Saptasilaism, also known as The Saptasila, is the state ideology of Maneiras. It includes the basic tenets of Maneiran morality, including freedom of speech and religion, unity and cohesion, democratic governance, and pragmatism. The name deriving from the old traditional Maneirese word of ‘Sapta’ meaning Seven and ‘Sila’ meaning Principles or Tenets. These Seven Principles are: (1) Unity of Maneiras; (2) Just and civilized humanity; (3) Free and independent divinity; (4) Noble, advanced, and exemplary citizenship; (5) A citizenry of free expression in democracy; (6) Democracy headed by the wisdom of representative deliberations; and (7) Social justice for all the citizens of Maneiras.

Saptasila is a unique ideology created in the months leading to the creation of the Maneiran modern statehood preceding its war of formation and formally recognized as its state ideology immediately after the formation of the first fully sovereign Maneiran state. Its seven principles are derived from the native and long held believes of its native inhabitants, inheriting many key tenets to the Maneirese art of statehood and civil society and the perfecting of life, a concept named Ilmu Kasampurnaning Urip which translates to Life Perfecting Knowledge.

The ideology is implemented in 1904 with the formation of the Maneiran state and was later installed as a permanent guiding principle of Maneiran citizenship and sovereignty in 1972 in the legislative resolution Tap Parlemen No.12/1972. that is in the Saptasila Appreciation and Practicing Guide (Pedoman Penghayatan dan Pengamalan Saptasila or P3S) Act. which outlined the enforcement of the state ideology into all manners of civilian and political life and all legislations and codified laws must adheres to its seven principles, placing it above the constitution, modifications to the Saptasila will be treated as a dissolution of the state.

The Saptasila emphasizes several key tenets of Maneiran believes and several political ideologies and theories from; secularism, meritocracy, democracy, humanitarianism, and ultranationalism. Its creation and writing being influenced by the then still existing political parties of the early statehood period. In modern times, the vagueness of the Saptasila have been exploited as measures to ensure ideological and political compliance with the Maneiran state, its vagueness contributes to the relative ease of marking dissidents or oppositions as anti-Saptasila thus anti-Maneiras. Tap Parlemen No.12/1972 made obedience to Saptasila as mandatory and any forms of disrespect of the ideology may be charged as treason. The ideology is used as measures of maintaining stability and sociopolitical cohesion with the inclusion of political studies into the Maneiran education system, indoctrinating Saptasila into the lives of its citizens from a young age.

What sets Saptasila apart is its many interpretations from purist to pragmatic, the government choosing the latter while oppositions supporting the former. Purist interpretations of the Saptasila outlined the limitations of the Maneiran state as a means to deliver the dreams of the Maneiran nation and in maintaining democracy and freedom of speech and freedom of religion, which aims to limit government intervention into the daily lives of its citizens and to secure a powerful checks and balances system. Pragmatic interpretations however differ mainly in how it aims to implement the ideology, focusing on its first Sila as a means to justify sociopolitical cohesion in maintaining stability and stable growth, it aims to maximize governmental authority and the freedom of governmental interpretations within the bounds of its democratic system and bureaucracy.

Origin: Ci Arovannea

Thalassicism was a popular school of philosophy and thought originating in 7th-century Almatia that could be best summarised by the great philosopher Neratos: 'A society that separates its academics from its warriors fights as a fool and thinks as a coward.'

In short, it advocated that martial prowess and mental prowess were not only related, nor did they only go hand-in-hand, but they were actually of the same coin and that separating them was what collapsed societies. In other words, the perfect world was a world where a scholar was also a soldier, and the two identities were one whole.

Finding favor with the ultra-martial culture of Arovannea, this ideology quickly spread throughout the independent duchies, and became the unofficial philosophical school of the Thalassonan when it was founded. It went hand-in-hand with Orientism - a notion of balancing enlightened despotism with a government and state of the people - seeing as the latter virtually required the militarily competent, educated and politically active society the former ideology advanced. Together, these two ideologies would propel Arovannea onto the world stage, landing it as a great power for centuries in Solitas.

When the Kingdom was created, these two ideals fell by the wayside - though there are many modern advocates for both, and in any case they have both left their mark not just on Arovannean discourse and culture but have ultimately left their mark on the world and Solitas itself through the notion of popular, benevolent pseudo-dictatorship.
