Imperialism

}}Imperialism is an ideology (although it can be argued that it is more of a practice or policy than an actual ideology) that has traditionally believed a country should expand their power or influence through military action. Imperialism was once very popular and controlled the Overton Window, but has decreased in popularity over the years. Imperialism is noted for his war advocacy and belief that the powerful nations should rule over the weaker ones. Imperialism differs from Nationalism in that he doesn't necessarily believe its nation is the best - though this is common - but rather believes that the big nations in general should rule over the small ones. He is generally seen as being in the authoritarian right area of the compass, but can potentially exist in the others. He defends himself against accusations of oppression by insisting that colonized people benefit because the richer nation helps them and gives them things they couldn't get normally, and they'll eventually get used to being part of a larger empire.

[[File:Colonial.png]] Colonialism
Colonialism is the policy of a country or group of countries aimed at subjugating another state, territory or people through military, political or economic coercion. The political basis of colonialism was the forcible deprivation of the population of the colonies of the opportunity to exercise their sovereign rights usurped by the metropolises. Colonialism means the fundamental inequality of relations between the metropolis and the colony (province).

Colonialism is accompanied by economic exploitation, the destruction of native culture, ethnocultural and religious characteristics, the imposition of official metropolitan culture, the formation of an ideology that justifies domination (racism, messianism, etc.), spreading imperial myths and stereotypes.

[[File:Cultmp.png]] Cultural Imperialism
Cultural imperialism is the practice of promoting, isolating and artificially bringing the culture of one society into another. Usually a large, economically or militarily powerful nation brings and promotes its culture. Cultural imperialism can be both an active, formal policy and as general attitude. Theorists of postcolonialism study cultural imperialism as a form of non-military hegemony.

As an example, western countries produce the majority of media, such as films, music and comics. They have the money to produce them, while Third World countries buy these products because they are cheaper than producing them themselves. Therefore, Third World countries watch and consume media containing Western ways of life, beliefs and thoughts, becoming assimilated and thus erasing their own culture, whether voluntary or not.

Suzerainty
Suzerainty is a relationship in which one state or other polity controls the foreign policy and relations of a tributary state, while allowing the tributary state to have internal autonomy. The dominant state is called the "suzerain". Suzerainty differs from sovereignty in that the tributary state is technically independent, but enjoys only limited self-rule. Although the situation has existed in a number of historical empires, it is considered difficult to reconcile with 20th- or 21st-century concepts of international law, in which sovereignty is a binary concept, which either exists or does not. While a sovereign state can agree by treaty to become a protectorate of a stronger power, modern international law does not recognise any way of making this relationship compulsory on the weaker power. Suzerainty is a practical, de facto situation, rather than a legal, de jure one.

Beliefs
He believes that subjugation of other weaker nations by stronger ones is necessary for survival whether pacifist or militarist (preferably the latter).

How to Draw
Imp_flag.svg Drawing Imperialism takes quite a few steps:


 * 1) Draw a ball
 * 2) Fill it with dark blue
 * 3) Draw a white circle in the middle and fill it
 * 4) Draw 4 white triangles in each of the cardinal directions
 * 5) Draw 4 thinner triangles in the intercardinal directions
 * 6) Draw a blue circle in the middle of the white circle
 * 7) Draw blue spokes going from the blue circle to each of the triangles
 * 8) Draw the eyes and you're done!

Personality

 * He likes old fashioned things over modern things. When he talks he may have an elegant British accent. He loves afternoon tea and likes the policy of old Great Britain and may want to replicate it for his own empire.
 * He is a prominent anti-pacifist. And wants to go to war with any nation that is not his to spread influence.
 * Does not like people portraying empires in a negative light.
 * Loves taking over smaller-states and micronations.
 * Very chauvinist and often racist, possibly even genocidal, especially to nations/peoples he doesn't like.

Friends

 * [[File:Krater.png]] Kraterocracy - They deserved being conquered because they were weak.
 * [[File:Res Publica.png]] Roman Republicanism - He inspired me to expand my borders.
 * [[File:Bonaparte.png]] Bonapartism - The Napoleonic wars weren't only about imperialism, but the French clay hasn't been so large since and it was glorious.
 * [[File:Fash.png]] Fascism - Yes, trying to revive the former Roman Empire was a great idea. Your actions in Libya and Ethiopia were based AF. Too bad your expansionist plans weren't as successful or went as far as your German and Japanese counterparts.
 * [[File: Nazi.png]] National Socialism - The Third Reich was me in my most extreme form.
 * [[File:Showa-kanmuri.png]] Showaism - My comparative counterpart from the East. Counter European colonialism with your own form of imperialism was very based, indeed.
 * [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] Neoliberalism & [[File: Necon.png]] Neoconservatism - My contemporary successors that reside in Western nations and America.
 * [[File:Monarch.png]] Monarchism - My father. Most of the empires in history were monarchies.
 * [[File:Unimon.png]] Universal Monarchism - My empire will conquer the world!
 * [[File:Irridentism.png]] Irredentism - I like where this is going...
 * [[File:Authcap.png]] Authoritarian Capitalism - Good friend of mine. Helps me maitain control over my former colonies after ”de-colonization” while giving his people an illusion of independence.
 * [[File:Strato.png]] Stratocracy - Crushing dissents against the empire is gigabased.
 * [[File:Pan-Nationalism.png]] Pan-Nationalism - MUST MAKE COUNTRY BIGGER! You're standing in the way of making my country bigger.
 * [[File:Muslim 2.png]] Islamic Theocracy - Your conquests that were achieved very quick in the middle east impresses me! And so is your subjugation or outright removal of Infidels for religious reasons.
 * [[File:NatProg-0.png]] Bull Moose Progressivism - Progressive imperialism sounds awesome! Teddy's actions in the Philippines, Cuba, and Panama, among others, and Woodrow's interventions in WWI and the Russian Civil War were based AF!
 * [[File:Thalassocracy.png]] Thalassocracy - A strong navy is important for conquering more clay. Very based.
 * [[File:Tellur.png]] Tellurocracy - It's time to grab some of that precious foreign clay for myself!
 * [[File:Ottoman.png]] Neo-Ottomanism - My son who resides in Istanbul, Ottoman Empire. He has the same ideas as me.
 * [[File:EndecjaPix.png]] National Democracy - Polska od morza do morza!
 * [[File:Thaifash.png]] Thai Fascism - Was a useful tool for Japan during WWII and shifted allegiance to the US during the Cold War to fight communism.
 * [[File:Khrusch.png]] Khrushchevism - A very based commie that I like. You brutally crashed Hungarian, German, and Polish protestors Based. Still, nowhere as good as Trot.
 * [[File:Brezhnev.png]] Brezhnevism - Another based commie I love your doctrine of a tight grip on the colonized Eastern Europe and how you invaded Czechoslovakia and Afghanistan.
 * [[File:Whitesup.png]] White Nationalism - Sometimes he supports me for some reason, probably because I subjugate people he considers "racially inferior"... To be honest, I can agree the white men were the only things giving the Blacks prosperity and security

Frenemies

 * [[File: Nation.png]] Nationalism - Depends if I conquer for him, or if I conquer him.
 * [[File:React.png]] Reactionarism - One can clearly see that Africa, India, and East Asia were better of under European/Japanese imperial rule, respectively, and that granting these places has only made them worse in the long run. However, I like to call anyone who dares to resist my expansionist influence a reactionary who in vain attempts to stop the natural progression of history.
 * [[File:Sep.png]] Separatism - Hmmm... If we're talking about my clay, then these parasites should be crushed! But when it comes to my rivals, then I can use those revolts to destabilize them. As long as Separatiststan supports me, that is.
 * [[File: Darwinist.png]] Social Darwinism - Woah, calm down dude. Imperialism applies to people outside the nation.
 * [[File:Avar.png]] Avaritionism - Aren't you just [[File:Darwinist.png]] him again, but more anarkiddy?
 * [[File: World.png]] Globalism - The new kid who wants to take my place... You reduce the sovereignty of some countries? Based, but stay out of my way!
 * [[File:World Federalism2.png]] World Federalism - Same as above but in overt denial about it! Which I actually think he is trying to do for optics.
 * [[File: Authoritarian Conservatism.png]] Authoritarian Conservatism - Not as based as Authcap as most of your followers such as Chiang Kai-shek were extremely anti-globalist and opposed my expansionist influence.
 * [[File:ML.png]] Marxism–Leninism - You were always yapping about how I'm the bad guy, but at the same time you enforced your views on non-Russian people who lived in your country and funded left-wing armed militias in various countries across the world in order for them to be your allies in case they succeed!.. I'm actually quite impressed.
 * [[File:Trot.png]] Trotskyism - "Permanent revolution", you say? Depends what you mean, if it is by invading other countries then maybe it might be good...
 * [[File:Dengf.png]] Dengism - People like to say you’re me but you only have some petty border disputes with India and in the South China Sea to claim that we are the same. Sure the BRI is a cool idea but it is too disorganized and why do you write off the debts of developing nations? Some say you end up making developing nations stronger. But most of you kinda hate me anyways nowadays under Xi. Thanks for siding with me in past conflicts though and what you did in Vietnam was based.
 * [[File: Stalin.png]] Stalinism - I initially didn’t like you for "Socialism In One Country". However, you later became overall very based on annexing, invading, and occupying the Baltics and quite based Eastern Europe. But you should have completely colonized them, like what your successors did.
 * [[File:Tribal.png]] Tribalism - This is where we all would be if it wasn’t for wars and conquest. But Genghis Khan and other tribal Empires are based.
 * [[File:Putin.png]] Putinism - Your invasion of Ukraine and Georgia are based. But you should go further to do regime changes. Also, you stopped some regime changes as well.

Enemies

 * [[File:Neighborstan.png]] Neighborstan - PREPARE TO BE CONQUERED, SCUM!!!
 * [[File: AnInde.png]] Independence Anarchism - You are of my clay, stop complaining!
 * [[File:Soc.png]] Socialists [[File: Ormarxf.png]] - My worst enemies. They are always about in "Anti-Imperialism", which is one of the most disgusting abominations to exist. One day, I will unleash my true power for a revenge against you!! At least some of your children [[File:Brezhnev.png]] [[File:JosephStalin.png]] [[File:Khrusch.png]] [[File:Trot.png]] are based.
 * [[File:Mao.png]] Maoism - You hate me a lot and says the third-world needs to be free from imperialism. What you did in Tibet was semi-based but even then Tibet was kinda part of China before you anyways.
 * [[File:globnat.png]] Alter-Globalization - Evil ball that wants to make the entire planet one anti-empire.
 * [[File:Feud.png]] Feudalism - Okay, seriously? I despise the idea of lots of tiny states to easily conquer. That is the literal opposite of an empire.
 * [[File:Native.png]] Indigenism - They're Savages! Savages! barely even human, Savages! Savages! Drive them from our shore, They're not like you and me, Which means they must be evil, We must sound the drums of war!
 * [[File:Pan-Africanism.png]] Pan-Africanism & [[File:Blacknat.png]] Black Nationalism - What annoying yappers! Always complains that I'm the evil slayer of civilization, but the movement they govern countries themslves everything goes to shit. Living proof decolonization is always bad.
 * [[File:Nalib.png]] National Liberalism - STFU bourgeois and let me do my job!
 * [[File:Prog.png]] Progressivism - Why do you hate me? I’m a progressive too. I bring progress to smaller and uncivilized societies and help them modernize. Sure some innocent blood may be spilled at first but that is worth it in the long run. Anyone who resist me is probably a reactionary.
 * [[File:Sankara.png]] Sankarism - Afrique Occidentale au Afrique Équatoriale ne deviendra pas indépendant! Et baise Thomas Sankara!
 * [[File:Polpot.png]] Pol Potism & [[File:Hochi.png]] Ho Chi Minh Thought - L'Indochine ne deviendra pas indépendant!! Et va te faire foutre, Khmer Rouge et Ho Chi Minh!! At least the former one likes the Khmer Empire
 * [[File:Postconan.png]] Post-Colonial Anarchism - See? These savages know nothing of true civilization, it's better they live under our empire and be assimilated anyway.
 * [[File: Kemal.png]] Kemalism - REEEEEE!!! You did not just end the my ambition to colonize Turkey by breaking it apart but also ended the Ottoman Empire!!!!! You also entered a treaty to resist my expansionist influence to invade the Balkans. I hate you!!!!!
 * [[File:3princ.png]] Tridemism - YOU ENDED THE QING, PUSHED OUT THE EMPIRE OF JAPAN OUT OF YOUR LAND AND ENDED ALL MY TREATIES TO COLONIZE CHINA!!!!!!!
 * [[File: Tito.png]] Titoism - You mother f*cker didn’t just push out me in your land but also resisted the Soviet and western takeover of your country!! You also created the Non-aligned Movement to resist my influence you piece of sh*t!!!
