De Francism

De Francism is an extreme authoritarian, economically left-wing, and extremely culturally progressive, ideology inhabiting the top left corner of the political compass. He believes in a utopian society based around the teachings in Rousseau's The Social Contract. He is anti-elitist, anti-colonialist, and anti-clericalist. This manifests in somewhat needlessly authoritarian decrees. For instance, he forbade the elite from marrying within their own race, so they were forced to marry commonfolk. Some draw comparisons between De Francism and Jacobinism and Maximillien de Robespierre because of their mutual radical dislike of elites and shared autocratic tendencies. Though De Francism takes away many individual freedoms and squashes dissent, it was still beloved by the people of Paraguay. De Francist foreign policy is mostly isolationist, though he will make alliances with neighbors to protect himself. He also really likes hats for some reason.

Compared to most South American autocratic ideologies, De Francism was the most progressive, because it incorporated populist policies. Though the upper class and the elite despised De Francism, it was praised by the lower classes. After the death of José de Francia, De Francism mostly died off. Though most remember De Francism for it's isolationist foreign policy, it helped solidify Paraguay's place in the world as a legitimate nation and helped bring progressive ideals and values to South America.

Personality and Behavior
De Francism is violently opposed to Monarchism and Colonialism. He is often angry, especially at Authoritarian-Right ideologies. He is also extremely defensive of José de Francia. He has no problem with being called a dictator. He is somewhat tolerant of most ideologies. He is also often mistaken for   Conservatism due to a similar colour scheme. This infuriates De Francism, since he is leftist, and he will often start a rant about Monarchy and Progressivism.
