'''Royalistic Populism''', or also known as '''Monarchistic Populism''', is a political ideology created by Johan Ludvig and other founders of the [[Ulvriktru Democrats]]. The ideology was based around Ludvig’s interpretations of the work of the late monarchist philosopher Morakir Arginson. Arginson was a famous philosopher from [[Tangrland]] during the early 1600s. With his work such as ‘Laws for Kings’ and ‘The Lawful King’. Which have been considered crucial inspirations for the Concordian Enlightenment.
Though based around Arginson’s work the ideology itself and its political views have been closely put in the basis of Ludvig’s work and his time as a Norgsveltian prime minister. Main aspect of Royalistic Populism has been the focus of conserving the monarchy as a unifying national and traditional symbol. Often arguing the power of the monarch shall be heavily limited by a constitution yet kept important by the monarch’s role in upholding that constitution and their role as a symbol. Placing the focus on what Ludvig considered as the parental role a monarch is meant to hold for the people. He also argued against what he saw as the destructive role nationalism had on people claiming it clouded judgment and was at its core secularist. Ludvig argued that through a popular monarchy through mass support can nationalistic tendencies be kept at bay.
During Ludvig time as prime minister of [[Norgsveldet]] his views also expanded on an economic field based around his Ulvriktru Democratic beliefs. Arguing against liberal economic policies, instead placing emphasis on policies supporting the community, welfare state, families, labor unions and market regulations. Mainly as the result of Ludvig’s rejection of individualism and support of family structures. Despite his progressive economic views for the time he strongly rejected left wing ideals of class warfare and general marxist theories. In modern day Royalistic Populists can often find themselves split on economic matters depending on the nation and the political parties they belong too. Especially between the left wing and traditional forms of Royalistic Populism.
Despite internal disagreement among Royalistic Populists on their views of Ludvig’s work all have common agreement that it is vital to follow his ideas of modernizing the role of the monarchy and ensuring its place in a more modern world. Stating that only through modernisation can a monarch in the 21st century survive.
== Traditional Royalistic Populism ==
'''Traditional Royalistic Populism''', also known as '''Conservative Royalism''', is a branch of Royalistic Populism that follows the works of Ludvig closely and often puts heavy emphasis on traditional values. With them opposing ideas of secularization and being skeptical of progressive social policies. Traditional Royalistic Populists are often more likely to defend the constitutional powers a monarch might hold and religious teachings. Often the branch who is most supportive of Ludvig’s economic views though the degree can differ depending on the sub branch.
The traditionalist branch is most popular among Royalistic Populists within Ulvrikia and often considered the largest branch in general. Though it has seen a decrease of popularity within the last decades as a result of societies becoming less religious. Despite that the traditionalists stayed influential in many nations within the Ulvrikian and the [[Norgsveltian Crown Realm]] with them playing a major role in the current government of [[Norgsveldet]].
