Necrocracy is an ideology that is ruled by a deceased former leader. An example of a necrocracy is in North Korea[1][2] and historically the chanka culture, in Peru. Necrocracy is usually an off-compass
Gerontocracy.
Conceptions
Ceremonial necrocracy
The term necrocracy has been used to refer to a type of government in which a leader remains the head of state even after they died, akin to the role of the monarch in a ceremonial monarchy. An example of a ceremonial necrocracy includes the
Democratic People's Republic of Korea in which Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il are given the title of eternal leaders (eternal president and eternal chairman respectively) of North Korea.[1][2]
Rule through Will and Testament
The use of will and testament can be said to be an example (even if minor) of necrocracy, as a person dictates what should be done after they are dead. Notable examples include Tridemism, which Dr. Sun Yat-Sen's Last Will and Testament (國父遺囑) became an influence throughout China[3], especially early revolutionaries. Currently in
Taiwan, Sun's Last Will and Testament accompanies his portrait and the Flag of the Republic of China to be displayed during official events and government buildings except the Ministry of Defence, although the Reading of Sun's Last Will and Testament in public speeches are no longer practiced.
Tradition as the democracy of the dead
According to the distributist writer G.K. Chesterton the usage of
tradition within politics can be said to be 'democracy of the dead'.[4]
Tradition may be defined as an extension of the franchise [to vote]. Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking about. All democrats object to men being disqualified by the accident of birth; tradition objects to their being disqualified by the accident of death. Democracy tells us not to neglect a good man’s opinion, even if he is our groom; tradition asks us not to neglect a good man’s opinion, even if he is our father. I, at any rate, cannot separate the two ideas of democracy and tradition; it seems evident to me that they are the same idea. We will have the dead at our councils. The ancient Greeks voted by stones; these shall vote by tombstones. It is all quite regular and official, for most tombstones, like most ballot papers, are marked with a cross.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1908), Orthodoxy p. 43
Rule of the undead
The most literal, and least possible conception of necrocracy. In such a system power is concentrated within various types of undead creations such as zombies, skeletons and ghosts.
Personality
For the first design, Necrocracy is portrayed as a zombie, who has a taste for brains and runs for the other ideologies.
For the second design, Necrocracy is portrayed as a ghost, scaring the others with a boo or in some cases a jumpscare. File:Ego.png Anarcho-Egoism doesn't like spooks.

Wait, what do you mean he rose again?Acid Communism - You are dead, but you don't know yet.
Voluntary Human Extinction - What do we want? Death!
Constitutionalism - Dictatorship of the dead.
Shame alive people can edit and sometimes even replace the constitution.
Mixed
Gerontocracy - Die already.
Anarcho-Nihilism - Dead on the inside at least. But why do you hate when someone rules?
Juche Most people thing Kim Il-sung is still the Supreme leader of the DPRK even though he is dead but that is wrong because Kim Jong-un is the Supreme leader and Kim Tok-hun is the prime minister of the DPRK.
Alive
- File:Ego.png Anarcho-Egoism - Boo. (I am a spook, why don't you like ghosts?)
Transhumanism - He wants to cheat death!
All types of Soulism - F*cking anarchist bastards, that cheated death by time-dilated lucid dreams ("One real minute is googolplex years in a dream? Fair deal!" -
/Migrating into the virtual universe
/Leaving soul into the astral plane
)!
