Imperialism

Template:Shocking

Imperialism is an ideology (although it can be argued that it is more of a practice or policy than an actual ideology) that believes 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 corner 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.

History

He is one of the oldest ideologies, born in the 16th and 17th centuries in Spain. (W.I.P)

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

Drawing Imperialism takes quite a few steps:

Draw a ball
Fill it with dark blue
Draw a white circle in the middle and fill it
Draw 4 white triangles in each of the cardinal directions
Draw 4 thinner triangles in the intercardinal directions
Draw a blue circle in the middle of the white circle
Draw blue spokes going from the blue circle to each of the triangles
Draw the eyes and you're done!
