Royalistic Populism
Royalistic Populism, or also known as Monarchistic Populism is a monarchist philsophy that was started in the 1400s, which later gained popularity again in the early 1900s as Norgsveltian politicans from Asatru Democrats revived the ideology. With Johan Ludvig in 1910, writting the book called 'Folkekonger' (People's kings) on which he argues the strenght of constitutional monarchies over that of republics. With also mentioning the weakness of a full democracy. Stating: "Problem with democracies is that it does not keep people very safe. It allows for dangerous ideas like nationalism, of which I state is the main cause of our politicans blindly getting this nation into this not so Great War. In which hatred is promoted more and more. We all equal spirits under the gods, but the more we allow extreme ideologies increase the less equal we become. Many often think monarchies no matter the kind, goes against the concept equality. I see that as far from the truth. The monarch should be the father of his nation, with us all being his children. As such we all equal under it! I am not promoting the monarch having more power, but simply the importance of keeping it! Because a nation with out a father figure is guideless!". In that book Johan also mentions Erik Tangrson's book 'the Law for Kings' on which most Royalistic Populist movements base their beliefs from. Royalistic Populism mainly promotes the creation of a Constitutional Monarchy on which the monarch shall largly be a symbol for the nation. Often that of a parental figure. Though while not impossible it is rare for Royalistic Populists to support democratic ways of governance, with most supporting more authoritarian govermental forms. With the main belief being in a legislatures representives. Which can vary to nation to nation of what extent. As Erik Tangrson argue in his book "The king shall not make laws, he is only mediator and adviser on them, but never maker. The making of laws should either be done by experts on the law, such as the enforcer or defender of it, or that of generals and commanders. As they are the ones to know what is the betterment for all." The main aspect of monarchy and how it should funtion according to Royalistic Populists is that of a People's King and that of Lawfull King. As the monarch shall be role model for his citizens, as such he can not be above the law. Conservatism and traditionalism is also major aspects of Erik's views, "The people is unified by clear and continued laws, one shall not change laws of the people drasticaly as it puts the welfare of the people at risk. If laws and structure if ever change, it must be done in a slow manner and structured way. Not done by idealistic bafoons".
