Almaz Braev - Empire man. Zelot

His heirs can then use this glory. For all traditional people, the glory of their ancestors and their services to the people are in the first place. If the current leader, even in the status of a monarch, makes seizures (imperial actions), this leader will intimidate everyone. In addition to glory and victories, all people will receive material trophies. The nations that have glory use this glory to justify their domination over the defeated nations. In this case, it is not necessary to use force and resort to weapons, it is enough to call yourself: I am a Roman! And his opponent immediately lost the spirit and will to resist. This is the glory of the ancestors. (This is still very relevant today. To suppress the will of all traditional peoples, it is simply necessary to make a mockery of their heroes. Everyone. For they would have nothing to be proud of. To have a 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 of the Peter and Paul Fortress, self unarmed and unguarded by anyone. No one remembered his origin, his root. But those who trapped in the wolf when pit get out, they turn back into predators or prey. When the safe moment comes, everyone tries to remember to say something about their ancestors and their achievements in power. And then all of Zeremids very proud of their ethnicity. By the way, this is the basis of nationalism. But the reason for this is the first defense, and then the attack to get trophies.

And what did happen to Tarquin the Proud?

De facto, his son raped a certain Lucretia-the wife of a noble and the nephew of the king. Whether there was a rape or not, this event became a peacetime occasion. When the current leader is hated. Who else are they afraid of? They are no longer afraid of 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.

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

If there were a war of conquest, the most ardent and ambitious pretender would have to seek victory. The applicant, even with a small tail, could immediately increase this tail. The soldiers would have supported him. Military democracy, and this is what we are talking about, implies a mass of soldiers who can be used as witnesses to the new leader. Let him have a small tail of past glory, a short root of glorious ancestors, but today his root grows with the hands of 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 of antiquity is a warrior. And this warrior leaded new units into battle. Crowds of tailless soldiers could get their trophies from victory, and this means their joys. Masses of tailless (rootless) people can turn into new contenders for power. On any power. For any glory. But first, fame gives power in the traditional world. If there is no war for a long time, then the tail of glory is inherited from the ancestors to completely undeserved and completely worthless people.

Thus, the dictatorship over the person will be defined as an institution of hereditary monarchy that will be ruled by Rex, Caesar, king, basileus which meant the unlimited power of one person in the future. And the next monarch will not necessarily have to 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 in military and state affairs.
