Czarism

Czarism (Daralian: cisárstvo) is a political ideology and intellectual movement originating in Czarist Deltaria that believes that Deltaria ought to be developed upon ideas and institutions derived from its early history. Czarism is not a single coherent ideology, but is formed of several related movements, some to the left of the political spectrum (seeing the rough democracy of pre-Hosian tribal Deltaria as a source of inspiration, and advocating a return to the občina, the traditional peasant commune where land was held in common), some to the right (considering the centuries of Czarist autocracy as intrinsic to Deltarian nature). Czarist movements share their disdain of Artanian influences over Deltaria, thus rejecting individualism, statist socialism, and preferring Deltarian mysticism over "Western Rationalism". Czarists share their idealization of Deltarian rural life and opposition to industrialization and urban development, and usually consider the Terran Patriarchal Church to be more important than the state. Czarist and related movements also developed in other countries traditionally influenced by Deltaria, most notably in Trigunia.
