And I'm having my ashes baked into fireworks that will be set off at my funeral.
Sorry, getting a bit off topic.

Speaking of death what is the most traditional form of funeral you can think of?

Outside of sky burials of course.

How is basing a title off of the white man's burden a good idea?


And this right here is why there is such a disparity between LWDT and RWDT threads.

I will say this, and hope Nordia realized I was joking. I do not feel like getting a warning over something stupid like that.

I would suggest that what makes a tradition "most" traditional is how far back it stretches. Burial is the most traditional, if you're not being any more specific than just the method of disposing of the body. If you're being more specific than that, then I expect Hindu cremation rituals are rather ancient.

There was some RP stuff in the OP. Titles bestowed upon people, for one reason or another. I removed it. NSG is OOC after all.

I'd hope if such an inference was made that there would be some understanding that it keeps to the RWDT Zeitgeist of mildly poking at each-other from time to time.

Nothing, citizen. Move along. Happiness is mandatory. [violet] is your friend. Glory to NSG.

But, getting back to the topic...

Fair enough. Then perhaps I should start a topic for us to discuss...

What is objectively the best empire in history and why is it America? And what is the most right-wing empire in history?


I place my figurative bets on the various Chinese dynasties (I would say from about the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty), lumped together under the broad category of "Imperial China" as the most right-wing empire in history. I say this namely because of the high emphasis of tradition, primarily in the form of the widespread presence of Confucianism.

Albeit, it should be noticed that even traditions are prone to change, and 2000-or-so years is quite a large period of time.

Although, I may be mistaken for I am, as of right now, relatively uninformed. This may be because of my age, and general lack of experience, at least compared to other posters on this forum, who are better educated than I.

EDIT: Oh, and the hierarchy involved in Confucian thought may be interpreted as "right-wing".

My NS stats are not indicative of my OOC views. NS stats are meant to be rather silly. My OOC political and ideological inspirations are as such:
The Republic, by Plato | Leviathan, by Thomas Hobbes | The Confucian civil service system of imperial China | The "Golden Liberty" elective
monarchy system of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth | The corporatist/technocratic philosophy of Henri de Saint-Simon | The communitarian
ideological framework of the Singaporean People's Action Party | "New Deal"-style societal regimentation | Kantian/Mohist/Stoic philosophy

I suppose that it would have been preferable if Blaat had asked what they were for first, however I am having a hard time seeing how this limits our fun.

Not really worthy of it tbh. Though I will re-state. Their purpose was not for rping so said inference might be a bit out of place in the edit notes.
