Since from what I know about your nation Ardoki is Collectivistic (good of group before individual), Asteoprioristic (system developed upon philosophy and meditative method), Negationalistic (progress and putting future before history), sameness (generally attempt to enforce the save worldview on each citizen), mechanism (seeing society as mechanism) and embracing law monism (? not sure here, but that is what I suspect), Kojiro would classify Ardoki separately. He would write that Ardoki is at this point starting to embrace civilisation of death, but their traditional civilisation resembled it much before.
Since at this point your nation is not similar to western society.
Generally the theory of civilisations was based on ideas of Polish historians Feliks Koneczny. Koneczny did a lot of good to describe the civilisations and the laws that govern them and which characterize them, but started to roll down when he started to put civilisations in a hierarchy. I however modified his theory a lot, and added few concepts such as "civilisation of death".
We are kind of a riddle.
Our culture is traditionally very humanistic and progressive. We are collectivist with all citizens being part of the state, yet we have a thriving capitalist private sector which makes us quite individualist (we are not personalist though). We are definitely Asteoprioristic, Negationalistic, Mechanistic, and Sameness(tistic?).
What do you mean by monism though? (The Big Bang Theory is accepted in my country as fact, so in that way us accepting everything originally being of the same substance, would make us monists.
