Integralism

Integralism is an ideology and political philosophy that was created by Kkhano and practiced sparingly by other countries since. Integralism is characterized by the establishment of an authoritarian, autocratic society based on the belief that individual interests should be subordinated in support of the state. In the interest of this Integralists generally protect various civil liberties, including freedom of religion, equality of nationalities, ethnicities, and gender egalitarianism in a broad rejection of natural social hierarchy; conversely they also usually feature heavily censored presses, strict labor laws, and militarized societies. Integralists derive their political legitimacy via their belief in the supremacy of the state above all other institutions. An Integralist would argue that states are the highest and most advanced form of societal organization in all of human history; they furthermore argue that the advancement of humanity as a species should be the top priority of all humans. They thus conclude that the best way to achieve the advancement of humanity is to organize it all into a singular, ruthlessly efficient and cohesive state. This fundamental philosophy usually drives Integralist states toward belligerent and expansionist foreign policies, although in modern times this is not always the case. Integralism grew as a response to the increasingly entrenched global establishment in the late 18th and early 19th centuries of hereditary rule, traditional distributions of power, and classical conservatism with the aim of replacing these with a more efficient and fair system. The ideology appealed to the large number of downtrodden and disenfranchised people of the time, enabling Kkhano’s rapid expansion whilst simultaneously superseding various reformist, revolutionary, and liberal movements in numerous nations. The ideology ultimately achieved its goal of realigning the political system, sitting at one end of the political spectrum and being opposed by Luddism. Kkhano began spreading Integralism in 1773 – by 1910 they had established an empire which spread across every continent on Utopia thereby exporting the ideology globally. When Kkhano was defeated in 1919 there was a global push to discredit and disgrace Integralism in order to protect the newly reestablished nations of the world and their governmental systems; such attempts would falter relatively quickly however, as other pressing issues of national importance such as economic recovery and geopolitical competition came to the forefront. This lapse in the stigma against Integralism would cause a revival in the ideology in the following decades, characterized by disappointment in the functioning of many of the restored nations of Utopia leading to a nostalgia for the days of Kkhanoese rule. This period created multiple variations of the Integralist ideology characterized by the unique identities of where they came from; these beliefs are often collectively referred to as Neo-Integralism, whilst Kkhano’s original beliefs are called Orthodox Integralism.
