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.

Monism and dualism of the law is something different. Monism is where there is one law for both public and private sphere; dualism is when both spheres are regulated by different law systems.

We have one, unified legal system for the entire nation. If that is what you mean.

If not, could you please explain it further? Perhaps with examples?

Yeah, then. We have a sing;e unified legal system for the whole Greater Empire.

All laws must be singed off by the Imperatormagnus, and then passed through the Imperial Senate.

Those aren't human rights. It's really fascist, at it's core. It should not be allowed anywhere near this alliance.

Perhaps you should only describe something fascist when it is actually fascist. I wouldn't think of my country as a far-right ultra-nationalist state.

Anyway. Yes, my citizens don't have political rights. However they have very generous social rights; they are guaranteed free healthcare, free education, a job, housing, good pay and working conditions and hours. They are prosperous and have a high living standard, those who try to overthrow the state and implement right-wing economic and social police are rightfully imprisoned and re-educated.

Would you prefer us to have right-wing economic and/or social policies, as long as we were a democracy?
Why does it matter what political freedoms our citizens have, as long as they are protected, happy, and have a high living standard?

He has only been in the UL for two months. I've been here since the very first week of it. :)

Of course you'll still be allowed to be here!

Kven is a (now former, since elections are over) commissar.

I don't know where people got the whole idea of age = power. It doesn't apply in the UL, ever.

Things change. Experience shows people can do things - when people are in a bad position they want someone to help them and do it well. Age never matters - I'm young. But do I have experience where I work? Yes. And that shows I can do that thing.

Yes, that is true. But somehow, people have gotten into their heads the idea that just because they've been here a little longer than everybody else it means that they have a special status (This is all in the context of the UL).

So, seeing as I'm in charge nao, along with two other dudes, here's a lowdown of shit I want to get done.

ICly, we'll make a strategic defence body(NORAD, but for teh whole UL), expand influence and maybe fite SACTO in a proxy war. A proper proxy war.

OOCly, I'll be pushing for an RP with SACTO, which would be the said proxy war. Also I'd like to expand member base by recruitment.

If ya'll aren't chill with any of that, please, do let me know.
