It is reminiscent to old European Conservatism, which usually advocated for more state intervention, regulation and support of the welfare state before they started to embrace Neoliberal economics in the 80s after the rise of  Margaret Thatcher.

Consistent with principles such as duty, hierarchy and organicism, it can be seen an outgrowth of Traditionalist Conservatism. Paternalistic Conservatives support neither the individual nor the state in principle, but are instead prepared to support either or recommend a balance between the two depending on what is most practical thus making them civically moderate.

[[File:Cball-Germany.png]] Germany
In Germany, the paternalistic conservative movement primarily stems from the policies of Otto von Bismarck as the chancellor of the German Empire, mostly in the 1880's. These being insurance-based welfare systems outlined in Health Insurance, Accident Insurance, Old age and disability insurance, Worker's protection and Children's Protection acts of 1883, 1884, 1889, 1891 and 1903 respectively.

In the May of 1863, back when Bismarck was the Prime Minister of Prussia sent a letter to the social democrat Ferdinand Lassalle which started a series of political meetings between the two.

[[File:Cball-Poland.png]] Poland
In Poland there's a strong divide between conservative view of economic policy, both of them being generally based on an opposition to communism of the previous PRL era. The primary of those while favouring a somewhat capitalistic economy that is very strongly controlled by the state, expressed by the Law and Justice Party, and the secondary one favoring laissez-faire economics, as expressed by the Konfederacja Coalition.

[[File:Cball-UK.png]] United Kingdom
Paternalistic Conservatism originally stems from the United Kingdom in the 1840's from the works of Benjamin Disraeli and from the wider One-Nation Conservative movement, although who did not gain significant power until the 1870's. Disraeli's terms in office can be said to be the Britain's first real shift away from laissez-faire economics and it's modern welfare system.

Another major moment in the history of British paternalistic conservatism is the post-war consensus between the Labour and Conservative Parties, which was an agreement between the both parties to both support Keynesian economic policies and the welfare state.

The  Social Democratic Party in the UK has a similar outlook to that of a Paternalistic Conservative.

Peter Hitchens is a controversial writer and journalist known for his staunchly socially conservative views, such as being opposed to same-sex marriage and the trans community. As a former Socialist however, he still retains social democratic views on economics.

In other European countries, such as Bulgaria and  Romania, the major social democratic parties tend to incorporate social conservative and moderate nationalist/patriotic views into their platforms, and can as such be viewed as a form of paternalistic conservatism or conservative social democracy.

[[File:Cball-Ukraine.png]] Ukraine
In Ukraine, PatCon can be seen in "Fatherland". Though the party officialy presents itself as liberal conservative,  christian democratic and  liberal nationalist, they support the expansion of social security, lifting the moratorium on land sales, are against the sale of agricultural land and strategic enterprises and even support raising tariffs for housing and communal services for the population, though previously the party was against the latter.

[[File:Cball-US.png]] United States
William Jennings Bryan was an American politician who supported populist economic views, such as regulating corporations and free silver, while holding conservative social beliefs such as creationism and  states' rights. He was running for presidency in 1896, 1900 and 1908 as a Democrat against William McKinley and Willian Howard Taft, respectively, but lost. He was also influenced by Jeffersonian Democracy.

 Huey Long you can also call him a paternalistic conservative. He, like Bryan, had populist economic views (see Share our Wealth program), and was a religious person and was also a religious person and was a conservative at heart.

In the United States, while the Republican Party have been primarily staunch supporters of  Free-Market Capitalism and  Fiscal Conservatism since the rise of  Ronald Reagan, recently there has been a few who favor a more  Communitarian and mildly state interventionist approach. The two prominent examples being Senator Josh Hawley and Fox News host Tucker Carlson, with the latter having criticised  right-libertarian economics and having said "the free-market is not a religion". Democratic politicians such as Dan Lipinski and Collin Peterson could also be considered paternalistic conservatives.

[[File:Cball-Italy.png]] Italy
In Italy, some Paternalistic Conservatives resemblance can be found in "Left-leaning factions" of Lega Nord, Fratelli d'Italia and rarely in some people inside Forza Italia.

[[File:Cball-Ireland.png]] Ireland
Aontú is a political party in Ireland that carries syncretic politics carrying a socio-culturally conservative platform alongside a social market economy which has a heavy resemblance to the idea of paternalistic conservatism. The leader of the party is Peadar Tóibín.

[[File:Cball-Botswana.png]] Botswana
Paternalistic conservatism in Botswana exists in the form of the Botswana Democratic Party, which was founded by the country's first president and prime minister, Seretse Khama. Under Khama's leadership, the country went through fast economic growth and positive social changes. It remains the country's largest party in its National Assembly.

[[File:Cball-Brazil.png]] Brazil
In Brazil paternalistic conservatism can arguably be used to describe the policies of Getúlio Vargas before the Estado Novo and after being reelected, as he pushed for many social democratic policies such as welfare, higher minimum wage among other worker reforms while being both paternalistic and very conservative in his policies, in the modern day paternalistic conservatism can be seen in part manifested in some parts of the Brazilian Social Democracy Party like with presendential candidate João Doria, aside from that in Brazil social democratic economics tend to be popular while conservatism is too leading to paternalistic conservatism being a somewhat influential ideology in certain parts of the country, although recently the right has turned more to liberalism.

Beliefs
Paternalistic Conservatism and Longism are currently the two  Authoritarian Left ideologies that do not identify as  Socialist of any kind and should be portrayed being irritated when they are called that, their beliefs meant to provide an alternative to socialism with  Populist economics. Paternalistic Conservatism and Longism both favor moderately regulated (government intervention when necessary) and populist market capitalism with a moderate to strong welfare state similar to the  Nordic Model. Culturally, Longism is also culture conservative but  secular in its institutions, is influenced by the Bible while Paternalistic Conservatism favors working with religious institutions when possible. Although Paternalistic Conservatism is in favor of intervention in the economy when necessary it is not in favor of a command economy.

Personality
PatCon will act a bit of a "conservative boomer" as compared to other Social-Democratic balls and emphasizes on acting proper and hard-working.

Ironically he calls his dad socdem a boomer because of how boomers created the hippies. He does the same for conservative leaning neoliberals.
