'''Chinese Theocracy''' (or '''Chinese Folk Theocracy''') is an Authoritarian Center ideology that believes that the Chinese Folk Religion should be the state religion. The state would be ruled by an emperor. The emperor's responsibilities include protecting the citizens, ensuring fair taxation, rebuilding infrastructure, and treating the people fairly. Failure to do so may result in the loss of the mandate of heaven, leading to the potential overthrow of the leader.
