FAQ

`National Corporatism claims to be a third way, rising above the common left-right dichotomy. For under this system, such questions are irrelevant, replaced with a simple creed; from the wealthiest capitalist to the lowest peasant, all must serve the state. However, for those of wealth and privilege the world over, it is both an existential threat, and a great ally. National Corporatists may not support capitalist aims exactly, but they do promise to preserve traditions and curb the red tide, and for many that is good enough. To some, they are the last hope for Europe, and indeed, the world.`

`**Ultraconservatism**`

`Ultraconservatism describes a trend in conservative thought that involves returning to an idealized past, and violently rejecting societal change. Ultra Conservatives perceive traditions and norms of an old political era as desirable, and wish to return to them in a form of national revitalization. They are staunch enemies of labour, and will seek to maintain hierarchies.`

`**Autocratic**`

`Autocratic states are perhaps the simplest form of human governance. One individual, entrusted with a monopoly on violence and legislation, rules. Despite often being accompanied by a league of trusted ministers, the Autocrat still rules alone, with little to no formal legislative bodies existing to check their power.`

`**Authoritarian Democrat**`

`Authoritarian Democratic systems of governance usually involve a strongman or despotic figure alongside a nominally democratic system. This contradiction, and the methods of its resolution, vary greatly by state. Therefore, authoritarian democracy remains a catch-all for various unorthodox political movements, usually ones that only make sense within their parent nation.`

`**Social Conservative**`

`Social Conservative parties are a common staple of bourgeois democracy in many states. In general, they wish to oppose rapid social change, and maintain existing hierarchies within society. To the Social Conservative, the status quo is under constant threat and ought to be protected against harmful societal trends.`

`**Social Liberal**`

`Social Liberal parties are a common staple of bourgeois democracy in many states. In general, social liberals support free market economics, combined with laissez faire social policy. The Social Liberal will typically blame societal injustices on a lack of opportunity, and distinguish themselves from Classical Liberalism or Social Conservatism based upon their ability to create it for individuals, as well as a more lax social policy.`

`**Social Democrat**`

`Though precursor forms of this tendency have existed since the dawn of the Socialist movement, Social Democracy as it is now understood was primarily a product of a Weltkrieg era split in international tendency.Social democrats advocate the retention of the capitalist mode of production in most industries, alongside strong social welfare programs and in some cases limited nationalisation. Despite being mostly discredited in favour of revolutionary socialism, a social democratic presence can still be felt in various states around the globe.`

`**Moderate Socialist**`

`While moderate socialists believe in the inherent immortality and instability of the capitalist system, they tend to be more lax in their policy. In states such as these, anything from cooperatives to limited private industry might still exist, with a broader transition likely relegated to a gradual implementation. Nevertheless, it would be wrong to categorize them as reformists, for these movements are nevertheless committed to the revolutionary cause of a better world.`

`**Syndicalism**`

`Syndicalism in its contemporary context refers to a government of trade unions, which exist as the primary organ of economic, and in many cases, legislative power.. While ideally an exercise in proletarian democracy, in practice syndicalism has sometimes become bureaucratic and restrictive, leading to harsh criticism from its rivals that it fails to meet its own lofty libertarian ideals.`

`**Revolutionary Socialism**`

`Revolutionary Socialists are those who refuse to compromise old order. staunch enemies of reformists, proponents of this doctrine consider capital an oppressive evil, one that must be excised, not bargained with.`

`**Nationalist Socialism**`

`Nationalism is not the force of the reaction nor the conservative. Nationalism is the ever changing power of a people, connecting its past to its future, yet always the same. What could therefore be more patriotic, more nationalist than the glorious cause of equality and the elevation of the working people to their dignity?`

What makes Red Night
different to other Kaiserreich sequel mods? We tend to prioritize narrative over realism, have a very limited scope building towards a third world war, have unique lore, and have decent organization internally to ensure consistent productivity.

Ultimately however, we think you will see through our work what sets us apart as we release and update.
