EmpireВ man. Zelot
Almaz Braev


Have been many “wild” empires in history when conditional barbarians seized large territories with more developed peoples. But the savage empires quickly crumbled. What is the reason? The simplification of the world is the main reason for the death of an empire. Simple organisms die faster. More the internal imperial bacilli lead to death. And only the Zealots (super people), changing the vector from simplification to a new one, could do something.

Introduction


The basic meaning ofВ human existence is tradition. One grazes the cattle, the other plows the land. Each person has his their occupation. No one seems toВ be bothering anyone. However, even among the brothers, there is envy. And Cain kills Abel.

That’s how it is among people. Everyone goes about their own business, and yet they interfere with each other. There is no such person who does not feel superior in another person, that is, there is no person who is not Cain.

And yet, would it be better or worse if the conditional Abel did what all talented people were born for and realized? All the potential Abels would still be alive, and the Cains would recognize them ofВ superiority.

How much evil and enmity has happened in the world because of envy because people, feeling someone else’s superiority, tried to harm, hinder, intrigue, grouped against super Abel.

InВ Revcon, Abel is aВ Zelot who is also aВ superman.

But the book does not only deal with the mass-produced seal of Cain. Here we are talking about the mass of Cains. What are they doing? They’re jealous. Which is what all Cains are supposed to do.

Because all people live for tradition, they themselves do not know about it, they seize someone else’s cattle, someone else’s land, someone else’s space. They kill innocent people.

So from aВ small capture, they get more big ones, then even more, then more, finally, they get an Empire. All captures are complicated inВ one name. But people do not remember the victims ofВ the aggression, those who died, no one knows. People only remember the winners

And after all, the winners have always been hindered. All the winners ofВ the past were the Zelots ofВ paganism.

What mores, such and heroes.

Then the super-ambitious were replaced by entirely different people. And they weren’t missing anything either. They were similar to their predecessors only in their rejection of monotonous everyday life, their rejection of tradition. They were taller than the mass of identical people.

However, the new Zelots did not come with Super Cain’s plans. They came for Super Abel. The new Zelots are the innovators. Against them, crowds of small envious people were grouped at once. No, the petty envious people were respected people of the society, they were authorities. But the authorities of what? They were just the best and the imitators. They were traditional authorities or authorities of the tradition. Furthermore, they did better the other traditional people, so it was believed that the masses did represent by such an elite. Both the traditional elite and the traditional people are the same thing.

The moment of the arrival of the innovator (the new Zelot) instead of the ambitious nobles meant the end of the growth of the empire. That’s all. From here, it was no longer the captures that began, but the universal love. The masses were entering the arena of human history. But these masses of people began to love, it seemed to everyone, for tradition. In fact, they were abandoning tradition for democracy and socialism. To understand all this, this book is written

The main message of the book – learn to give in. This, in addition to biblical simplicity, has great potential for the positive construction of a new world.




ChapterВ I





Superman


The children of powerful parents often ruined them reputations. The most famous filial betrayal took place in ancient Rome. So, the eldest son of Tarquin the Proud Sextus failed his father. Who was Tarquini the Proud, this is little known today, and even uninteresting. However, we are talking about the last king of Ancient Rome. All the Ancient Rome of the kings was seven. Modern historians and readers are more interested in the history of Rome when Rome was the great empire of antiquity. And it reached its highest power when Rome was headed by emperors. And what is an emperor? Or who is the emperor? Isn’t this a different version of the same autocratic version of power? When we look at a modern car, don’t we realize that this car is a modern version of an old peasant cart? It is obvious that autocratic power also underwent changes, but the principle of sole rule remained. This is most likely a requirement of the time and situation. And even more, precisely this is the moment of triumph of the next superman. He finally defeated his rivals and began to dictate his will to everyone. Today, there are almost no such super people. Because the Zelots, which is what we will call the super people now, should not exist in the democratic world of the market. Therefore, it seems to everyone that any empire at the moment is impossible.

You’re wrong!

Today, aВ global empire is being formed.

But the modern empire is created not by super people, but by super money. The richest clans of the planet control its fate and at the same time no one knows, except for narrow specialists, who these rulers of the world are. A conspiracy of financial elites reigns over all the peoples of the world. And several dozen people interpret this dictate according to the guidelines. But few people want to call the new system an empire. Because the concept of empire is also outdated. Even the destruction of the USSR bears little resemblance to the collapse of empires based on the principle of unity of command. Yes, yes! Empires are based on the principle of unlimited autocracy. Empires were ruled by super humans. Well, maybe in personal terms they were nobody, not all monarchs matched the qualities of genius leaders, basically, all monarchs were ordinary people. Like all the leaders of democracy today. But that the pyramid of the empire is created in the form of a pyramid, where the tip is a Zelot, there is no doubt about it. Perhaps the children and heirs of any Zelot did not fit the concept of an over-task, but they led the over-system of their time. And the best system for every empire is a monarchy. When only one will create history de facto, and this will is superhuman. When empires had nowhere to grow in the physical sense, and empires expanded just physically, as any living organism grows, then came the natural old age of the empire, stagnation, collapse, and fall. That is, every empire should think in time on what principles it should now grow, what to eat. You can feed from a land and grabs – this was the case in the past. This is how people have lived on Earth for 5000 years. In this spirit, the history of mankind took place, some people, peoples seized the land of other weak peoples and fed on it almost in the literal sense of the word. The Empire should never have stopped, the seizures should have been permanent. The captured peoples, if they were fed, and shared power with the local elites, allowed them to grow, to enter the imperial apparatus, did not mind at all. If the empire continues to take over, then it is strong! So, there will be trophies. This means that the central government will share both material things and non-material glory. But if the Empire will stop and cease to grow and everyone not gets a piece, and that’s when all the internal people are beginning to doubt. Local elites are seeing through their greatness. They are looking for their way, finding their glorious past. They are just as much imperial embryos as the lost, dying empire was in the past. But on what principle all the empires of the world actually develop, we will understand in this book.




ChapterВ II





Empire ofВ the Wolves


Who is Tarquin the Proud, and why was he thrown off byВ the Roman Nobles?

InВ essence and inВ the aggregate state ofВ Ancient Rome, Tarquin the Proud was aВ military leader. But his term ofВ office was unlimited. This is an early monarchy when all the nobles remember their origin, their root, and the reason for the rise ofВ their current leader. For any leader, the legend ofВ the origin ofВ his family is important. InВ addition, he must perform an extraordinaryВ act.

His heirs can then use this glory. For all traditional people, the glory ofВ their ancestors and their services toВ the people are inВ the first place. If the current leader, even inВ the status ofВ aВ monarch, makes seizures (imperial actions), this leader will intimidate everyone. InВ addition toВ glory and victories, all people will receive material trophies. The nations that have glory use this glory toВ justify their domination over the defeated nations. InВ this case, it is not necessary toВ use force and resort toВ weapons, it is enough toВ call yourself: IВ am aВ Roman! And his opponent immediately lost the spirit and will toВ resist. This is the glory ofВ the ancestors. (This is still very relevant today. ToВ suppress the will ofВ all traditional peoples, it is simply necessary toВ make aВ mockery ofВ their heroes. Everyone. For they would have nothing toВ be proud of. ToВ have aВ people without heroes, had an inferiority complex).

King Tarquinius captured the area around Rome-Latium. Defeated the Sabines and Etruscans. The Romans themselves were 80% Etruscan. But the Romans were not autochthonous. They fled from Troy. The lack of a Latin root forced the Romans to first defend themselves against the natives, then attack and steal their wives. (All the peoples of the migrants still do. Migrants have no roots, so they have no choice but to attack and create a root of glory for themselves. And it is even easier to create a root for yourself, a reason for pride). So it was Rome that rose and became an empire, not the Etruscans or the Samnites. All migrants settle in, get married, start families, and “attack”. Lev Gumilyov called this process metisation and the need for a jump, that is, before the jump. It is such passionate (energetic) people who jump, create fame for themselves. There is no reason for all Aboriginals to jump so “vigorously”. They say every time: I am a German! Or I’m Russian! This is enough to do nothing and not jump. That’s how the Etruscans were proud of their ancestors and roots, and the Romans came to visit them and captured not only the Etruscans but also the entire Apennines Peninsula. And went on.

And when the Roman route became so large that it was enough to say “I am a Roman!”, from that moment the limit on the next captures was set. The army began to recruit savages who had no civil roots, did not know civilization but remembered their glorious ancestors. In general, all savages, conventional savages, pagans, who still remember their seven ancestors, have the potential for imperial development and land grabs. And the more they take someone else’s land, even if the peoples who had their own huge tail of glory, the more honor they will have. Someone else’s tail of glory will pass to them as ordinary trophies. So did the Germans. They proclaimed the Holy Roman Empire. Although their empire fell far short of the prototype model-Ancient Rome.

But let’s go back to Tarquinius the Proud, who defeated the Etruscans and Sabines, but suddenly became unnecessary.

Why?

I will tell you that even if the leader of the Bolsheviks, Lenin, instead of writing to the Congress the letter, had appeared himself at the 12th Party Congress, no one would have listened to him. And in a secret election, he would sensationally give way to Stalin. Stalin was the leader of the peacetime. When the Bolsheviks defeated all the armed enemies, no one threatened them, and they had to share power and spoils. Who needed their world revolution?! This is nonsense. No, they didn’t want to. They wanted their spoils from the victory over the bourgeoisie and the landlords. They wanted their empire! Stalin took advantage of this mood of Zeremids. Under a plausible pretext, he quickly shot all of Lenin’s associates and especially hated Trotsky. He passed on his hatred to the people. And the people have always disliked the Jews.

During the revolution, the Jew Trotsky could disarm the garrison ofВ the Peter and Paul Fortress, self unarmed and unguarded byВ anyone. No one remembered his origin, his root. But those who trapped inВ the wolf when pit get out, they turn back into predators or prey. When the safe moment comes, everyone tries toВ remember toВ say something about their ancestors and their achievements inВ power. And then all ofВ Zeremids very proud ofВ their ethnicity. ByВ the way, this is the basis ofВ nationalism. But the reason for this is the first defense, and then the attack toВ get trophies.

And what did happen toВ Tarquin the Proud?

De facto, his son raped aВ certain Lucretia-the wife ofВ aВ noble and the nephew ofВ the king. Whether there was aВ rape or not, this event became aВ peacetime occasion. When the current leader is hated. Who else are they afraid of? They are no longer afraid ofВ anyone. All the neighbors are defeated. At this point, all the nobles pull out their family records and spread their tails.

Tarquinius was banished. Although Tarquinia made conquests. But his power was not protected by the system. He did not have his own oprichniks, ton-ton makuts, “Lenin’s call” from the plow and the National Guard. It were not Zeremids. Who are the Zeremids? These are candidates for power without roots. And we already know that those who have no roots are the most energetic.




ChapterВ III





The superman’s tail


So, toВ take the power, the applicant inВ need ofВ aВ tail. Without glorious ancestors, he is nobody. He must have the past, the root ofВ fame. So, that the applicant can say toВ his opponents: And my ancestors are better than yours! It immediately becomes clear that the applicant for superman does not need toВ perform aВ personal feat, and his dispute with rivals takes place inВ peacetime.

If there were aВ war ofВ conquest, the most ardent and ambitious pretender would have toВ seek victory. The applicant, even with aВ small tail, could immediately increase this tail. The soldiers would have supported him. Military democracy, and this is what we are talking about, implies aВ mass ofВ soldiers who can be used as witnesses toВ the new leader. Let him have aВ small tail ofВ past glory, aВ short root ofВ glorious ancestors, but today his root grows with the hands ofВ professional warriors.

And they, these professionals, will support their commander. No one will resist but simply escape from the eternal city. Roughly so, Gaius Marius fled from Lucius Cornelius Sulla and Gnaeus Pompeius from Gaius Julius Caesar. The fugitives had everything. All the Republican nobles were for them, the treasury of the republic was in their hands, just such legionnaires could defend the republic. But it didn’t help. And the valiant soldiers of Lucius Sulla and Julius Caesar, by their very appearance, by their very glory, frightened the leaders of the enemy. We can say that there was an act of revenge over the leaders of the republican system. Takwini the Proud was avenged. Although the last king of Ancient Rome during the empire was forgotten. The Romans did not simply submit to the new Zealot, they wanted such superman power.



The superman ofВ antiquity is aВ warrior. And this warrior leaded new units into battle. Crowds ofВ tailless soldiers could get their trophies from victory, and this means their joys. Masses ofВ tailless (rootless) people can turn into new contenders for power. On any power. For any glory. But first, fame gives power inВ the traditional world. If there is no war for aВ long time, then the tail ofВ glory is inherited from the ancestors toВ completely undeserved and completely worthless people.

Thus, the dictatorship over the person will be defined as an institution ofВ hereditary monarchy that will be ruled byВ Rex, Caesar, king, basileus which meant the unlimited power ofВ one person inВ the future. And the next monarch will not necessarily have toВ perform personal feats and win victories on the battlefields, although victories will still be desirable, will warm the vanity, and his children may even be completely incompetent inВ military and state affairs.

This is what the root ofВ glory, aka the tail, means, given byВ glorious ancestors or even byВ one great ancestor. That the heirs automatically inherit power, and all the courtiers start running around, fussing, scheming against each other for aВ kind look, and for aВ caress from aВ completely worthless person on the throne. (If you take any regime ofВ modern autocracy, then today even the glory ofВ the ancestors is not needed, the power itself is important, and the dictator will be loved and respected byВ all the courtiers and all the people.

They love and respect him so much that inВ place ofВ the non-existent tail or root ofВ fame, aВ huge tail ofВ hypocrisy and lies grows. Where exploits are supposed toВ be recorded, there are tons ofВ flattery and instead ofВ the root ofВ real glory, aВ cult ofВ personality is built. Although the cult ofВ personality is more ofВ an institution ofВ Asian fame).

Whatever it was, but any worthless descendant of Genghis Khan could take power and the title of khan, while the great commander Tamerlane modestly limited himself to the status of a local emir (local official). How could it be that Tamerlane, who had won so many victories and overthrew the mighty Golden Horde, was limited to the status of a Roman praetor? It couldn’t be in Rome. It just couldn’t. Yes, the Roman Zeremids, the Roman horsemen, captured Rome, one after another. But this was the time of the soldier emperors. The time of the soldier emperors lasted for a very long time, almost three centuries. And this time ended completely disastrously for Rome and the imperial population. The time of the rootless on the throne led to the collapse. But even more, to an empty seat, came the backward barbarians. But they had their own big, wild tail. These new empire tails were the old tales of the Germanic ancestors. And what is needed for the empire? The empire needs the tails of its ancestors!

But when the completely tailless from the position ofВ noble ancestors, that is, there can be no noble ancestors among the Zeremids at all, began toВ usurp power, this signaled only one thing: that the time ofВ the seizures had passed, the time ofВ the division ofВ the old lands had come. An empire exists only if it expands. It grows with new lands and newly conquered peoples, which can be cultivated and plundered at the same time. If there is no longer an opportunity for expansion, and therefore for military captures, there comes aВ time ofВ stagnation. The time ofВ stagnation is the time when people without rootsВ act.

It seems toВ them that there will be no more war than the power can be seized byВ intrigue, bribery, or byВ showing off your power. OfВ course, there are battles, but these battles happen inside the imperial territory. The victory inВ the civil war inВ the ancient world was much less valued. But who cares if there is aВ way toВ take power! Then aВ number ofВ courtiers will run around you, these people will sing for you the Hosanna. The people preprocessed byВ the propagandists toВ love. The power is so sweet!

All the rootless (tailless), rootless proletarians want to climb up all the time. And there it is completely irresponsible to enrich yourself at the expense of the people. If a given people are so backward that it supports the cult of the family more than the constitution, then all officials use power, simply for wealth and fame in the circle of their relatives. Of course, the court singers can immediately inflate such fame to the skies. And the whole similar coven with embroidery of a colorful tail for the owner will inform everyone only about one thing, there is no noble class here. And nothing else. After all, all the Zerefs in human history have always imitated the propertied class. They tried dressing up in an expensive dress, a suit to surprise people, and it also says what “fame” is valued here.




ChapterВ IV





There are no castes, there is no empire


If there is aВ metropolis, there must be dominions. If there is aВ Horde, there must be satellites. If there is an imperial center, there must be provinces ofВ the empire. Why do need this list ofВ administrative status?

The fact is that traditional worlds do not live outside the hierarchy. If there is the main territory, the center ofВ the empire, where the most privileged people, citizens, live, then there are people ofВ low status. The provincials themselves are uncultured. (And this is not aВ simple stereotype). And if we were talking about the tail ofВ glory that inevitably grows when two traditional people come together, inВ this case, when two representatives ofВ the traditional elite (the Zerots) meet, then they greet each other as an equal. If ordinary people go toВ meet the feudal lord, they are obliged toВ bow and greet him inВ accordance with their status.

Previously, people were ready toВ fight. InВ peacetime, and this is aВ quieter period, longer inВ time, people ofВ low status were required toВ work. So, inВ ancient India, there were castes. The Indian example ofВ aВ tradition is perhaps the most rigid version ofВ the division ofВ people byВ status. So rigid that transitions from one caste toВ another were not allowed. That is, the Indians use such an ancient root ofВ their fame that it is so thick and deep, and the root must go deep, it closes their view ofВ additional options. No talent and no merit!

Suck it up and work!

If you were born inВ aВ slave caste, then you are aВ slave and your children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren will be slaves. This is what heaven has decreed for the existing life. And who is born where, inВ what family, it depends on how aВ person spent his life. If he did not resist his slave status and did all the work conscientiously, only inВ this case inВ the next life, the new birth, he will be lucky and will be born inВ aВ Brahmin family. If he did not recognize that he was aВ Sudra, was lazy, and resisted fate, it means that he did not fulfill the task assigned toВ him, he will be born again inВ the family ofВ aВ Sudra. Everything are decided byВ theВ sky and gods.



Among the Zerefs, civil laws are generally difficult to take root.



They can issue many codes, constitutions, codes of laws, but they still do not work. Wherever the people with such reflection meet, they don’t pay attention to these laws. Professional lawyers try to make an essential face at the same time. They point a finger at the lawbook. They quote some paragraphs, sub-paragraphs, but this is done formally, it is done to correspond to their profession. An adult who goes to an important meeting or for a solemn meeting must wear a strict suit. This costume shows other people’s formal respect. If a person comes in untidy, in pajamas or a sports suit, what will they think of him? That’s how lawyers can’t sit and be silent when clients come to them



But both the lawyer and the clients know that traditional people do not live by formal laws. Who wrote these laws? Maybe some tailless monkey? What does it mean, the tailless human? But it means in a figurative sense. The authors of the law may be yesterday’s proletarians. Maybe not. But they were learning to have a new status. Everybody, who do such. But in the traditional world, they will first are asked, who is your father? And then they’ll see how smart and professional you are. In the beginning, you must be respectful. Sometimes old people use it.

All traditional people still respect old age. And if they respect particularly old age, let’s say this old man, give him a place in public transport, then they will look at any other root. In the traditional world, it is not this particular old age that is respected, but the former glory and merits. And if there is respect for the past, then all the time there is a search for the root. This is the root of every informal law.



Traditional people will not look for aВ professional, aВ connoisseur ofВ the criminal code. They will look for the big official first, then they will search for the old man. It will be excellent for them if aВ relative or friend holds aВ high state post. Therefore, among the Zerefs, relatives are always respected, but they do not necessarily respect professional lawyers unless, ofВ course, they are also relatives. If they are related, they will help with problems. It is also an informal connection with the root, with related blood.

But if we return again toВ the Ancient World, where everyone was concerned about their glorious ancestors, then we will ask, why do the nobles need such difficulties?

They could create a family-like ordinary people and produce their offspring. That’s the problem. Offspring is of what status? After all, without feats, there is no domination. And there is no domination without merit. So, that the children of the Nobles do not experience problems in this world, all traditional people want to increase the tale of family fame. And then everyone will hang around their children, their descendants. Their descendants will walk with an invisible tail. And everyone will know that this family, this family, has a deep root.




ChapterВ V





Empire is aВ song


So, why for Zerefs do need aВ tail? First, they need the root first. From the root, they make themselves the very tail ofВ glory. And we found out that the root is necessary for the surrounding people toВ always see the merits ofВ the family if it is an ancient tail, the tail ofВ the past, or the personal merits ofВ aВ person who grew the root for posterity byВ aВ feat.

InВ the traditional world, and this is not necessarily just the world ofВ antiquity, inВ the modern world there are also many peoples who openly adhere toВ traditions. There are half-civilized nations. There is aВ quarter cultivated, there is the eighth part, and so on. The relationship between tradition and culture is difficult toВ determine at once, but it is possible.

If the people value informal services and informal laws, people worship officials, leaders, leaders, or even just people of age, then these persons are 100% traditional. These are the Zerefs. If there is worship, a deification of leaders, officials, but disrespect for old age, this is already a semi-traditional people. There is so insecure transitional caste of Zeremids. If the officials themselves respect the state and do not need a dictator’s stick to maintain discipline, then civilization has slipped by a quarter among the people. If there are Remid statesmen, responsible people who do not need either a root or their own personal tail, this is excellent.

After all, every nation has aВ memory. So, every nation has aВ tradition. The more memory governs the people, the more the people are traditional. And vice versa. This means that the more people look back toВ the past, the stronger the tradition. And if there is aВ tradition, then there is aВ hierarchy. If there is aВ hierarchy, then there are roots. After all, the root means the past. People look back, stare at the shadows. Any tree has roots. The older the tree, the deeper the roots. And so far inВ this area, there is no constitution or code ofВ laws for everyone (first for the completely wild, who know nothing but war, and completely rootless, nomads and full ofВ migrants) this means that this society is based on aВ hierarchy ofВ local nobles (Zerots). There are patricians and plebeians, feudal lords and black people, white bone and black bone, blue blood, and all sorts ofВ different blood.

There comes aВ time when people with money (the Refags) can impose their will on the Zerefs. How could this happen? So, that people without aВ root and without fame become dominant. This will tell us only one thing: the people here are so mixed up, and inВ addition, the number ofВ tailless migrants inВ this place has exceeded the critical line ofВ unconsciousness. No one is interested inВ who is who. Who came from where, from what place they moved, just ran away from the feudal lord or from the fierce father. Or maybe the father himself kicked out because there were manyВ children inВ the house, it was difficult toВ feed all the household members.

There is another essential variant ofВ taillessness.

The most savage tribes, depending on the whims ofВ nature, who did not have enough intelligence, natural sharpness, toВ oppose something toВ this very nature, for example, the same nomads. The most aggressive children ofВ nature ofВ all the barbarians. OfВ course, there were various root gatherers and hunters inВ history. But the consumption ofВ plant roots is such aВ primitive development ofВ farming, besides giving so few calories that aВ hereditary root did not grow from children, descendants because most ofВ those born died ofВ hunger, so such an economy could not create an aggressive force. ToВ assemble aВ squad and attack need aВ force ofВ blood. And what can attract aВ group ofВ hungry herb gatherers? Therefore, we can only talk about wild nomads, whom nature itself forced toВ unite on aВ related principle.



So, these are the most nomads are strongly reminiscent of the tailless merchants, the Refags. And the Zerefs and the Refags don’t actually have a tail. In any case, in a new place, where they came and settled. Nobody knows them. Who they are, what they are. This is if we are talking about migrant Refags. If we are talking about Zerefs, then none of the Zerefs had ever appreciated trading. Well, what can be the glory, if you managed to sell a herd of pets? Another thing is if you are lucky enough to exchange for the right thing, and even better to capture, rob the defeated victim. Therefore, the Zerefs, although they always have memories of the glorious past, start all over again in a new place. In that, the moment their memory resembles the floors of a building or the sheer cliffs of a mountain, one rock rising above the other. This is the time for all rootless or active passionaries without a glorious ancestor to show their prowess. Well, the Zerefs can’t live without the roots of glory. Because in a new place, the hierarchy does not disappear, it is updated.

.

Another thing is that Zeref does not need so much to be happy. He can build or install a portable dwelling, find a wife or capture a wife from a neighboring tribe so that this woman will bear him heirs. This is enough for him to be happy. In order for the heirs to have something to inherit, then they need to continue the war. Neither hunting nor gathering roots, it’s all unimportant, but go to war, they always must go on a campaign.

If this Zeref has succeeded, performed feats, entered the elite, turned into a tribal aristocrat (Zerot), from now on, one ordinary dwelling will not be enough for him. From now on, each member of the traditional community must not only confirm their status with the root, but literally build a palace. The palace of the  tribal nobility should be larger, wider, richer than the dwellings of ordinary members of the community. It is also not enough for them to have one wife. What if she’s barren! So, the nobles have several wives, and the very first chief has a whole harem.

.

Any elite is not very interested inВ the home. These are the lower classes ofВ society, who marry quickly and procreate quickly, interested inВ the home. As soon as the urges appear, they seem toВ be afraid ofВ not having time. This is understandable. InВ fact, ordinary soldiers could be sent toВ war. They will not be asked whether they want or do not want toВ fight for the glory ofВ their master, and for the future ofВ the state or empire. But the owner, the state, and the empire know about this, they try toВ single out heroes, reward them, and encourage them financially. If there were no hierarchies inВ such aВ society, no Zeref would go toВ war. He would have children, his wife would give birth toВ an heir every year, and he would not know what toВ do with them. After all, Zeref itself is part ofВ the mechanism ofВ war. If suddenly there is no war, no one attacks, he multiplies the heirs, potential soldiers become more and more, then he will look around. He will look once, look twice, and the third time he will become aggressive. He will go out on the road and start robbing passers-by. An Imperial man is always aВ warrior.

The rulers know this. Therefore, the Zerots are always engaged in propaganda of war. Even in peacetime, they train the population, train them military skills, and create physical support, a physical number of their supporters, in advance. And we already know that for the traditional population there is only one formal and informal deity – their leader. As he commands, so be it. One of the prizes of an empire, real or with the phantom pains of former power, is the constant work of propagandists. No one seems to be interested in the interests of the population. Are they want to fight, or they don’t want to? The empire lives on. And that says it all. Propaganda-and only propaganda!

So.



If the Zeref builds houses, the Zerot builds palaces. If the Zeref has an ode to a wife, a noble may have several wives. If the Zeref goes to war, so it means that the Zerot may be able to afford these palaces. To make the state richer and the state strengthened. And if the state grows territories, which in turn helps the population to get rich, then we are talking about the empire. Because the empire is not only an arrogant elite that always needs a root, it is also a proud (“tailed”) population. And the propagandists are always raising this almost invisible tail to everyone. They have no choice. The rulers of the well-fed, his spokesmen. And the population gradually sees the light, sees the truth, and grumbles. No matter how many heralds and troubadours try to sing the military marches, people get tired of holding bright dummies and banners all the time. The first one is heard, when the crowd is unhappy: Down him!




ChapterВ VI





Superman vs the Envious


Of course, the leader of the ancient people is an unusual person, a talented and brave person. But he was elected at a difficult and dangerous time. It appears in an extreme situation. You can say it has a one-time application function. He is a war chief. For peacetime, groups of tribal fathers were always present, and they resolved all issues. And the honorary elders had their children and their relatives. After the war, the dictatorship of the leader seems to have stopped working. And again the tribal council met, where the priests decided everything. So, in Ancient Sparta, the council of elders chose the leader, and not the leader chose the council of elders. And without Gerusia’s approval, the military leader couldn’t do anything. As a peacetime tribal administrative institution, any council of elderly priests was always superior to any hero. The hero is born for war, for rare and dangerous situations, and the old people were carriers of valuable life experience. For example, the council of elders of Sparta forbade King Leonidas even to take all the soldiers because of the holidays in honor of Apollo of Carneia. The gods are above everything! Above even the Persian danger. And Tsar Leonid went on a campaign only with the famous detachment of 300 Spartans. But the fate of all of Greece was at stake! The question arises: did the Ephors wish their king good luck?

For Sparta, there is such an opinion the best option was the death of King Leonidas. Which is exactly what happened. But this time the Greeks fought back. But it wasn’t just the Greeks who fought back.

At all times, the feudal elite (the Zerots) was separated from its people. InВ every possible way, it overgrew and released occasionally the tails ofВ its ancient root. The traditional elite still shows that they are superior toВ other people. InВ fact, they grow tails and germinate the root ofВ their kind-this is the meaning ofВ life inВ the traditional world so that the descendants ofВ the family do not experience problems with their status. So, that no one can say toВ them: Who areВ you?

InВ this case, inВ Sparta, the superman (the Zelot) was King Leonidas, and his opponents were the feudal elite (the Zerots). InВ the clash ofВ interests ofВ supermen and the envious group, the history ofВ empires is determined. Some were heroes, others were envious and competitive. Some had already created their family root, and some people wanted only fame. According toВ legend, King Leonidas was aВ descendant ofВ the legendary Hercules. What else did the ambitious man need? Maybe the king wanted toВ be equal toВ Hercules? InВ that heroic time, glory and honor were more important than just life. It was not so much that such famous people and ordinary Spartans were obliged toВ die inВ battle. And they become heroes. The two Spartan survivors ofВ the Battle ofВ Thermopylae, even as messengers, deserved toВ be shamed. No one spoke toВ them.

For the same reason, starting from the end ofВ the V century, the decline ofВ Athens began. But Athens was the main rival ofВ Sparta inВ the Greek world. The famous Athenian democracy contributed toВ the rapid degradation ofВ the polis than backward Sparta with its primitive laws. And so, it happened that 50В years later, just after the Greco-Persian warrior, aВ war broke out inside Greece, between Athens and Sparta. It seems surprising that the advanced Athenian democracy, byВ modern standards, has lost this duel ofВ traditional systems. After the victory over the Persians, Athens was the only great city that rose. IВ will not consider all the twists and turns ofВ these tragic events for the Greeks. What the Greek union turned out toВ be, and why Athens literally lost. The subject ofВ this book is the empire, not history.

This meant that one ofВ the two Greek states had toВ organize an empire as well. But neither ofВ the two equal rivals managed toВ create aВ full-blooded and long-term empire. Everything was limited toВ the Greek world and the Greek lands. Athens and Sparta formed alliances ofВ cities, but not an empire. All they could do was take any city from each other, tax it, and prolong their existence. The strangest thing, inВ this case, is that something similar toВ the empire was created byВ the Athenians, who had aВ trade and craft democracy. This meant that aВ large crowd ofВ rootless people could and were eager toВ simply profit. Because for democracy, the most important thing is money. ToВ increase their tail, every citizen tried toВ earn, trade, speculate as much as possible. No one knows the calmness inВ democracy, but no one can guess why it is so uneasy. If anyone could tell these people that they were missing aВ tail, they would think that this person was crazy, he was just crazy. InВ fact, no one can guess what is the reason for this pursuit ofВ money until now. Today it looks like aВ race for pleasure. Simply because the human family has ceased toВ dominate the modern world, the traditional institution ofВ the family is experiencing aВ crisis. Two people are the minimum toВ create aВ family, only one man, and one woman, but there are only selfish singles who want pleasure. But even these singles want or pretend toВ want toВ start aВ family.

But when the Athenian democracy was in full bloom of power, all the Athenians wanted to have a family. Therefore, the Athenian democracy, although it is so-called, is still one of the subspecies of the traditional world, the traditional system. It’s just that democracy expands the number of applicants for elite status. In a democracy, money in the form of funds comes first. So, there was also bribery. Honorary citizenship could be bought. Or just citizenship. Because in Athens, the ancient tribal elite still ruled. It was the elite that the merchants and artisans wanted to drive out all the time. As long as they were unable to expel them, there was no way they could gain civil independence. So, that no one can say: Who are you?

Glossary:

The Zeref- a traditional person with rigidly set social actions, low reflection almost zero, hence the word zeref-reflection zero (zeref).). Has no semitones, serves the idols of the genus, communicates in the circle of native blood. Zeref has no semitones of perception, is categorical, irreconcilable, hostile to others and to another opinion in the development of rejection of “not your own”

The zeref �s loop – the baby boom, overheating of the population.

The Zerot (zeroot = zeref+root) – the traditional feudal elite

Zerot’s loop – the creating a solid cast, impenetrable social barriers. None of the lower castes can enter the feudal elite. The lack of social mobility pre-revolutionary situation.

The Remid – a new traditional elite, rulers, officials, authorities, teachers; Remid put actions for Zerefs, determine morality, laws, politics, reflection average-middle (remiddle).

The remid’s loop – the struggle of the elite with the brightest personality, the collusion of second and third parties against the hero and the prophet.

The Refag- person ofВ aВ trading civilization inВ several generations, reflection is high, selfish, utilitarian refag (re + high).

The Zeremid is man of the first generation of traditional elites (or city, fresh citizen), has a half-hard social reflex custom, neither the inferiority complex that wants to cover up, so invents a new ancestry, creates fine root, and it has the fancy “tail” behind. If this is a modern Zeremid, it is usually a former villager who has mastered the culture of urban life superficially, he is half urban and half rural.

The first generation toВ undergo industrial and cultural modernization

Zefa is aВ man from the first generation ofВ the city with inclinations towards the market and speculation, and toВ trade, at least what, he was forced byВ circumstances. The bourgeois stratum ofВ socialist citizens who quickly converted toВ market morality.

The zeremid’s loop – the Zeremids are approximate imitators. They imitate the elite, any idea, any direction just to be good for their families. By imitation, hypocrisy, and even fanaticism, they harm any cause, state, or idea. The hypocrisy, pharisaism, fanaticism, the adjustment of marginal strata to the existing idea and order. When the elite religious organizations from governments accumulate the Zeremids, there is stagnation and crisis. The collapse of the idea and system of Zeremids conformity inevitable. They adapt to the system for the sole purpose of supporting their family. That is, they do the same thing as the Zerefs, but for this, they want to get into the elite, the privileged stratum, or the state system, they quickly learn, master new skills, and imitate the formal standards of idea and responsibility.

The Zelot is aВ superman, aВ hero, aВ prophet, the most gifted among the traditional elite. AВ Zelot is an ambitious but disinterested person, he is aВ fighter against the traditional elite (Zerots), with Pharisee officials (Remids, Zeremids), with the people, if the peoples are obsessed with dark passions.




ChapterВ VII





Land and water. What the empire consistsВ of.


Once upon a time, Xerxes sent the Greeks parliamentarians. The parliamentarians told the Greeks “Land and water!”

The Greeks responded: We will not give anything.

Greece has been unable toВ create an Empire inВ every sense ofВ the meaning ofВ the word. Although the main criterion ofВ the empire is the seizure ofВ land, aВ large territory, super the area, although perhaps only aВ small part ofВ this area is suitable for cultivation and exploitation.

For the pagan superman, the utilitarian part ofВ his conquests is not essential, for the superman, the super territory is important as aВ guarantee that this Zelot will be compared toВ the gods. If his descendants will be represented as gods, then superman has fulfilled his super task.

Although inВ the pursuit ofВ size, the Zelot often forgets toВ start aВ family. This is how he wants toВ appear as God. So great is his super-task inВ him. InВ fact, that is why he is aВ superman. All the conquered peoples, every Zeref, would be against the rule ofВ aВ new ruler. And their rulers themselves want toВ be gods, calling on their people toВ go with them toВ fight against the stranger, scaring the Zerefs that they will no longer be able toВ pray toВ their gods, the gods which will die together with the aborigine and will not be able toВ help their people create families, have children. You will be enslaved! And the slaves have no family, no children!

What could be clearer than such aВ bleak prospect? And if the local natives go toВ battle with aВ foreign Zelot, what else can they do? With the mass ofВ their small family interests, as if toВ block the ambition ofВ another zealot, and toВ support the egoism ofВ its aristocracy.

But superman is superman because superman must be confronted byВ the same aВ superman, otherwise, no mass ofВ his relatives and people will save the local Zelot from defeat. So, the huge human mass ofВ the peoples conquered byВ the Persians could not protect Darius III from death. Because Darius III was not aВ superman. And the mass ofВ his Zerefs found aВ loophole for their small tasks.

Who cares who rules us? If the new Zelot promises the Zerefs not to touch anyone, just to change the administration, why should they fight with him? So they will solve all the Zerefs and sell their old master? Then such peoples can be taken with bare hands. Although the military leaders of Darius tried to lead the conquered peoples to battle with a cruel whip. Cruelty is also valid. Under the penalty of punishment, the Zerefs also go into battle. They do not yet know who will defeat, their Zerots-their own king or someone else’s king. Every local dictator is obliged to conceal any of the defeat of his troops. So, that the peoples conquered by him do not run over to the victor in advance in their small souls.

Napoleon, for example, could have taken Russia after the Battle of Borodino. The battlefield remains for the winner. Napoleon then took Moscow, which was abandoned by the Russian tsar and administration. If in the time of Napoleon there was a modern connection and the whole people would have learned about the tsar’s abandonment of Moscow, then Kutuzov would have had no place to recruit soldiers, some of them would have fled in different directions, and the horses would have died, the peasants would have beaten Kutuzov’s rear services, and not Napoleon’s quartermasters. The Zerefs don’t care who rules them. Just to create a family and continue your family they don’t need anything else.

Then it was still unknown what tasks the local administration sets each Zerot. Everybody hopes toВ make friends with aВ new conqueror. The only one who remains with the unfortunate local dictator is his relatives, the same small cell ofВ the meaning ofВ life ofВ all traditional people.

Yes, yes! After a huge desire for glory equal to the size of the conquered territory, the empire lives only in one human institution – in the family. Family is the only meaning of life for all traditional people, without discrimination. If there is no family in the form of meaning for life, then do not look for an empire here. It was only in the 19th century that German thinkers started talking about the need for living space for Germans.

But the rational, perhaps the most rational people in the world – the Germans did not come up with the idea that to conquer the living space, you need a superman. They only saw vast areas of land. The huge areas of land were necessary for the German people. From the fact that the land is the main criterion for the well-being of the nation, we can immediately say that we are talking only about the empire. From here, the main criteria of the empire it there is land and family are immediately formed! These two criteria are inseparable.

If there is no land, then there is no possibility for the growth ofВ aВ new population. If there is no family, the institution ofВ the family is destroyed, discredited, people have turned into egoists, they have ceased toВ answer toВ their relatives, and therefore toВ the people, then why do they need land? The people who do not have people with super-responsibility can never become imperial people.

Similarly, cultured people will not be able toВ become imperial. The over-cultured Greeks failed toВ create an empire, for example. Alexander the Great did not create an empire because he wanted aВ lot ofВ land. This ambitious superman wanted only one thing-fame. The Greeks built an empire on the corpse ofВ the Persian Empire. And inВ general, toВ create an empire, the people must be the necessary way ofВ life. Only savage peoples with the cult ofВ the family created large empires. We will not consider all the victories ofВ savages over cultured peoples.This is no longer necessary. Everything has already been said.

It would seem that the cultured peoples had better equipment, were organized and were led by educated strategists. But all this was a pointless exercise before the onslaught of any savage horde. All the barbarians, vandals, Horde people thought about how to feed their families. All civilized societies think about how to have a good time. To not get bored, to enjoy life. Enjoy your life! (Seize the moment! How similar it is to the modern cliché “every second of your precious life is precious”).

But none ofВ the Imperial people do not think about the culture! InВ any case, about the culture ofВ one person. The Imperial people propagandize the culture ofВ society and the collective. You can tell the imperial people there is no need toВ propagandize anything. The cult ofВ the family, the family, the people themselves will do everything as it should, correctly educate each person.

If you take away from any people the cult ofВ the family, for which ideologists (Zerots, Remids) invent aВ living space, these people will again return toВ the original savagery. (For example, modern traditional peoples are very fond ofВ the culture ofВ democracy, although their culture, just even the genes, did not come out ofВ the cult ofВ the family. This leads toВ unbridled corruption, rot, and destruction not only ofВ the state but also ofВ society as aВ whole. These people can disappear even without the invasion ofВ sudden barbarians, as it was shown inВ history. But the new barbarians with aВ real cult ofВ the family will create aВ new empire inВ the vacated place. Only for the peoples for whom the cult ofВ the family is not just aВ sound, aВ figure ofВ speech, there is an opportunity toВ create aВ state. But this state is also powerless and doomed inВ the second generation ofВ civilized barbarians. The means ofВ communication have reached such heights that they accompany each Zeref all day, and he does not part with his smartphone until nightfall. Who will he listen toВ more, mom and dad or hip-hop music?)

So, every pretender toВ the empire thinks about living space, so about the future ofВ feeding millions ofВ new members ofВ the horde.

OfВ course, we will not take completely wild hordes. So, the Dorian hordes took over almost the entire Peloponnese and the Dorians, like the Spartans, did not create an empire. Because the Dorians were forced toВ the cult ofВ the earth. All those savages who run or wander anywhere will never create an empire. They are simply not old enough not experienced toВ see life beyond the ancestral settlement. Beyond the forest, beyond the river, beyond the valley, there is no life for them, that space beckons them and hunger can drive them at any moment. These people depended on the favor ofВ nature.

And the first impulses ofВ ambitious people who began toВ fight with backward elders, with the old elite with ancient roots, are the first signals that knowledge ofВ geography at least will increase here. ToВ create the prerequisites for an empire, it is necessary toВ generalize all the experience and justify the conquest ofВ living space.

But look at Ancient Greece?

Ancient Greece never got out ofВ the state ofВ the polis, aВ city-state. Because they had aВ mossy elite, the ancestral aristocracy (Zerots) with thick tails ofВ the glory ofВ family ancestors. Then they developed aВ lot culturally. And for aВ philosopher, orator, or strategist, the family is not inВ the first place. The cult ofВ the family and the meaning ofВ life forВ its provision is the occupation ofВ the Meteks, Helots, and another rootless rabble.

Could the most advanced and cultured Athens create an empire based on the cult ofВ money and the struggle ofВ the rootless for their rights?

That’s another question. After all, the modern global empire is created as a total democracy without any cult of the earth, and it is not interested in the traditional family. On the contrary, the financial empire does not need any traditional family. It does not allow to them to enjoy their freedom. The traditional family strains and violates the rights of women. The only available and guaranteed pleasure for everyone is informed. Information is the only thing that is needed in the modern financial Empire. Information also promotes so-called democracy. This is what distinguishes the past superman with his ambition, vanity, living space, war, cruelty from the modern superman, with his money and other opportunities.




ChapterВ VIII





Who wantsВ fame


These heroes belong toВ the traditional elite. That is, not all active aristocrats turn into Zelots, but only the actual winners. Although the logical sequence ofВ the tradition starts from the very bottom. The traditional chain starts with the Zerefs, but the Zerefs are soldiers, and the soldiers can never feel superior toВ the generals. All the Zerefs, every one ofВ them, want only toВ repeat the tradition: toВ start aВ family, toВ continue themselves inВ children. InВ other words, they would just like toВ live, repeat the path ofВ their ancestors. We are not talking about any sense ofВ superiority.

But this only seems at first glance.

Yes, aВ sense ofВ superiority is brought up inВ the elite, among the children ofВ arrogant feudal lords (the Zerot). This circumstance can not inВ any way cancel the competition among the aristocracy.

The entire traditional aristocracy can also be called the people ofВ the Empire. So, literally, the entire aristocracy is riddled with vanity? Yes, it undoubtedly.

And how can vanity beВ fed?

Only after personal successes, only after victories inВ battles, only after the conquest ofВ foreign territories can be fed. The winner, who really grew the empire with new lands, drove thousands ofВ new slaves toВ the fields, covered his name with unfading glory, that the image ofВ aВ great figure is immediately cast inВ bronze, aВ record is made below. Such aВ Zerot can really be called aВ superman.

But even small people have ambitions. The Zerefs have vanity, too. Not so big as in the Nobles, but it’s there.

Zeref cannot be an imperial winner because ofВ its scale, its low social status. The life ofВ the Zerefs is simple. The goals ofВ the Zerefs are simple. The Zeref, for example, can be the winner inВ aВ street fight with an equal Zeref. It is also aВ point ofВ pride for the street mob. But this does not negate the possibility ofВ Zeref being Zeref superman at the level available toВ him.

How can Zeref become aВ hero (aВ Zelot)?

And how can he help his people? Only as a hero soldier. Only as a victim. When Zeref sacrifices his life for his family. But Zeref’s family is not visible here. It recedes into the background. Although the Zerefs fight for their families, when Zeref sacrifices his life for the people. Only in this interpretation, after a feat on the battlefield for the nation, Zeref becomes a Zelot. That’s how every person, even the most simple and inconspicuous before the act, can be a superman and stand out from the rest.



All supermen are distinguished byВ aВ greatВ act.

And it does not depend on the status that the hero occupied inВ the traditional hierarchy. The whole point is that traditional society is always hierarchical. Everyone gets aВ chance from the degree ofВ the possible. But everyone has the opportunity toВ perform an extraordinaryВ act.

Any greatness is determined byВ the social significance ofВ theВ act.

Positive significance and, unfortunately, negative significance. But Herostratus, who set fire to the temple for glory, is certainly not a Zelot, he is a zealot. But it’s not an idiot, either. It’s seemed, handicapped person, filled complexes. And a person with such data always moves along the shortest path. Even if he is a Zeref, he also wants fame. Traditional people all want fame. This directly affects their status, the same painted tail that we talked about earlier. But what is the social significance of the destruction of the temple subservient to a madman? Therefore, Herostratus is not a zeref-zelot, much less a zerot-zealot, he is just a Zeremid, just a Zeremid, and that’s it.

Similarly, there are deceptions and dummies among the elite. Those ofВ them who have great ambitions, aВ lot ofВ honor, excessive pose, painted show-off. But there are no material facts. There is no proof ofВ them real exclusivity.
