National Sonacism in Rhuvanland

EDIT: I suppose perhaps Bhargava wanted to do what he said he would, and in the thick of war the jingoism got to his head. But as I said before, there's a new government and Bhargava is dead. At least give them a chance, guys.

I would like to emphasize this part of my post, which basically sums the whole thing up.

Also, I found a weakness for Syrixia. During peace, we try to keep peace. If we're a belligerent in a war, however, we go ape shit. The stereotypical Syrixian could be a smart person, kind to all, but very easy to anger. Just like me IRL. Holy shit.

Giving the government a chance is not hugely relevant to anything I said. The Government might not be jingoist, but certainly elements of the population will be extremely jingoist and the opposition most likely would be. Given that the jingoist approach has only been abandoned recently.

The Democrats are in power, and the Centrists are the Opposition, as they came in second in the elections. I don't see a clear-cut government vs. opposition conflict here.

Also, be sure to see my previous post for my idea.

There's a difference between official opposition, and the rest of the opposition. Do you intend to say that there are literally zero jingoists in office now?

They've all been set off to reeducation camps; that's why Syrixia has been so hush-hush.

Of course the Parliament Man comes to clarify! :clap:

No, I meant official opposition. There is also a very small socialist party and a medium-sized far-right party. The two large parties are center-left (the Democrats) and center (the Centrists). Provincially, most of the right-wing Syrixians are in Annala Pradesh, a traditionally right-wing province.
 
I just realized, whenever an argument happens on this forum, suddenly things become extremely active in terms of post rate. XD
 
Syrixia, I'd definitely agree that though you nation has taken a different approach from jingoism it's not something that changes overnight. You can show the change, but there will still be opposition on the inside of your nation from the old liners. Plus just because you changed doesn't mean that other nations will accept the change right away. Think of it like this: You personally know a man that every time he sees you he says he'll punch you in the face. Whenever he comes close to you he punches you in the face. Now he's changed. Do you believe he's changed right away? Are you going to go running up to him because 'he's changed' or will you be wary of the situation?

The people may be majority in favor of a non jingoist attitude which may be the reason your people changed, but there are still most likely jingoists in your government and among the people. This is one of the things you might show in your RP, the anti-jingoists trying to align the nation to that ideology while fighting against the jingoist politicians and people who may want to return to the old way.

I also agree that you should look into what was suggested by I think it was McMasterdonia, that you can RP issues that are similar to India's issues. Plus with much of your population in the cities, maybe your people need to filter back into the rural areas possibly due to lack of farmers or others who work the land in a manner that supports the cities. e.g. No farms, no food.

Not really a weakness, but your people could be culturally more angry. I've said Mcmasterdonians are stubborn and demanding :P

"Weakness"

Please reevaluate.

It's more of a behavioral weakness. That's the best I can come up wi-

OH MY GOD IDEA!!! Not many people live in the rural areas of Syrixia, but a lot live in the cities. Perhaps there would be a poverty issue/disease in the northeastern plateaus of the nation?

Generallly when development happens so quickly, it favours the wealthy and you see people leaving farming areas to live in very poor areas on the outskirts of towns. Like shanty towns. This has happened in countries like India and Indonesia. I just think national RP is stronger if nations are more nuanced than simply elite at everything.
 
Well the battlepriests are stocking up on coconut oil and thong wax ready to pop-pop and make those heretics stop.

We'll be overseeing the situation at the moment, and we'll probably only intervene when it gets serious.
 
Just got an idea.

The Final Solution to the Kannexan Problem.

Coming this afternoon.
 
...

I feel like you're just saying things to provoke a reaction now.

I would advise you tread very, very carefully, as you're invoking something that has great meaning to many people.
 
Needless to say, any action against the Kannexan population in Rhuvanland will be met with decisive action.
