Nadirism

Nadirism is a term for the concept of empire building popularized with the first Nadir, Mihli Lilty. The concept takes ideas of political control from imperialism coupled heavily with the standards of absolute monarchies and democracies. It's main recurring theme was the good of the common people over the nobility, a message that resounded in the minds of all within the empire. Nadirism began to become popular nearing the end of the counterattack against the Pillar Alliance.
:
The roots of Nadirism date to the August Convention of Year 9993, which was the first public debate featuring all three of the current Lilty sisters. Each expressed their views on the current direction of The World, with neither Maetel Lilty nor Esmira Lilty speaking outwardly against the Estellion Council, who's poor leadership had weakened Estellion power and influence. It was Mihli Lilty, who outwardly spoke against the council and instilled thoughts long unimaginable to the common citizens of the empire. In particular her speech about the need for change in the aristocracy garnered her many enemies within the nobility, but many underground reformists began calling her the darkness to the Apex, someone who would say what the Apex wouldn't, a Nadir.

In Nadirism, each "state" or Sky Island System within the Estellion Empire was given total autonomy in government issues, but were restricted from having any armed forces. The Nadir in turn for the system's taxes and conscripted soldiers would supply her own soldiers to defend the system.

==Nadirmilitarism==
Another variant of Nadirism, often times called Nadirmilitarism is a termed original used by soldiers of the pre-Nadir Era when referring to the various military organizations that were created after the Rise of Mihli Lilty. The term was originally used in a derogatory context, but soon became skewed to favor decisions by the Nadir for a safer state. During The Great War many citizens openly criticized the Estellion Council's mismanagement of military resources resulting in massive losses for Estellion Soldiers. With the reforms of Mihli Lilty, the military was divided into many more sections, resulting in better flow of management and production. Critics praised these changes, mainly for the results that were produced in the After War Era.
