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.

Variants

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.

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.

Neo-Imperialism

WIP

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

Flag of Imperialism

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!
Color Name HEX RGB
Dark Blue #1C2166 28, 33, 102
White #FFFFFF 255, 255, 255


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, possibly even genocidal, especially to nations/peoples he doesn't like.

Relations

Friends

  • Neoliberalism & Neoconservatism - My contemporary successors that reside in Western nations and America. They both scare me sometimes.
  • Kraterocracy - They deserved being conquered because they were weak.
  • Fascism - I agree with some of your policies, but you kinda took it too far.
  • Showaism - My comparative counterpart from the East.
  • Roman Republicanism - He inspired me to expand my borders.
  • Bonapartism - The Napoleonic wars weren't only about imperialism, but the French clay hasn't been so large since and it was glorious.
  • Monarchism - Most of the empires in history were monarchies.
  • Universal Monarchism - My empire will conquer the world!
  • Irredentism - I like where this is going...
  • 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.
  • Stratocracy - Crushing dissents against the empire is gigabased.
  • Pan-Nationalism - MUST MAKE COUNTRY BIGGER! You're standing in the way of making my country bigger.
  • 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!
  • Thalassocracy - A strong navy is important for conquering more clay. Very based.
  • Tellurocracy - It's time to grab some of that precious foreign clay for myself!
  • Neo-Ottomanism - My son who resides in Istanbul, Ottoman Empire. He has the same ideas as me.
  • National Democracy - Polska od morza do morza!
  • Thai Fascism - Was a useful tool for Japan during WWII and shifted allegiance to the US during the Cold War to fight communism.

Frenemies

  • Nationalism - Depends if I conquer for him, or if I conquer him.
  • 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.
  • National Socialism - You were based during WWII but your modern followers are sadly too isolationist.
  • Social Darwinism - Woah, calm down dude. Imperialism applies to people outside the nation.
  • Avaritionism - Aren't you just him again, but more anarkiddy?
  • Globalism - The new kid who wants to take my place... You reduce the sovereignty of some countries? Based, but stay out of my way!
  • World Federalism - Same as above but in overt denial about it! Which I actually think he is trying to do for optics.
  • Liberalism - Evil decolonizing libtard, but I like your economic policy.
  • Putinism - Your actions in Chechnya, Georgia, Syria, and now Ukraine were awesome. But you also prevent me from expanding to other nations so OK i guess.
  • Authoritarian Conservatism - Not as based as Authcap as most of your followers such as Chiang Kai-shek were extremely protectionist and anti-globalist.
  • 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.
  • Trotskyism - "Permanent revolution", you say? Depends what you mean, if it is by invading other countries then maybe it might be good...
  • Dengism - Mostly neutral. People like to say you’re me but you only have some petty border disputes with India and in South China Sea to claim that we are the same. Sure the BRI is a cool idea but it is to disorganized, but at least you put developing savage nations further into your debt traps. Though some say you may end up making developing nations stronger. And your oppression and assimilation of minorities to prevent them from rebelling your just rule from extremist Uyghurs to reactionary Tibetans to uncivilized Mongolians and beyond is epic.
  • Maoism - You hate me a lot and says the third-world needs to be free from imperialism. What you did in Tibet was extremely based and was totally justified since it was taking back your rightful clay from reactionary savages. Also, destroying their symbols and assimilating their culture was also gigabased.

Enemies

  • Neighborstan - PREPARE TO BE CONQUERED, SCUM!!!
  • Independence Anarchism - You are of my clay, stop complaining!
  • File:Soc.png Socialists (except for Reactionary Socialism) - 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!!
  • Alter-Globalization - Evil ball that wants to make the entire planet one anti-empire.
  • Feudalism - Okay, seriously? I despise the idea of lots of tiny states to easily conquer. That is the literal opposite of an empire.
  • 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!
  • Tribalism - This is where we all would be if it wasn’t for wars and conquest.
  • 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.
  • Sankarism - Afrique Occidentale au Afrique Équatoriale ne deviendra pas indépendant! Et baise Thomas Sankara!
  • Pol Potism & 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
  • Post-Colonial Anarchism - See? These savages know nothing of true civilization, it's better they live under our empire and be assimilated anyway.
  • 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!!!!!
  • Tridemism - YOU ENDED THE QING, PUSHED OUT THE EMPIRE OF JAPAN OUT OF YOUR LAND AND ENDED ALL MY TREATIES TO COLONIZE CHINA!!!!!!!
  • 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!!!
