New Alexandrianism is a sociopolitical and cultural movement that emerged in the Federation of Nouvelle Alexandrie during the early 1740s AN. The movement promotes a transcendent national identity that synthesizes the Federation's diverse cultural traditions while maintaining distinct regional characteristics. New Alexandrianism gained significant momentum following the Spring Crisis of 1739, when widespread civilian resistance to a military coup attempt demonstrated unprecedented unity across traditional regional, ethnic, and linguistic divisions.
The philosophy was first articulated by political theorist Eduardo Martinez-Vargas in his 1740 AN work "The Federal Compact: A New Vision," though its intellectual roots trace to the collaborative resistance during the Spring Crisis. Martinez-Vargas, along with constitutional scholar Isabelle Montclair and Wechua philosopher Dr. Amaru Quispe, developed a framework that reconciles the Federation's multiple national identities within a unified civic consciousness.
New Alexandrianism distinguishes itself from traditional nationalism through its emphasis on constitutional loyalty rather than ethnic or cultural homogeneity. The movement has profoundly influenced federal policy, particularly building upon the existing Federal Cultural Integration Program established in 1732 AN and inspiring the educational reforms of 1742 AN. By 1745 AN, surveys indicated that 78% of citizens identified as "New Alexandrian" alongside their regional identity, compared to 43% in 1738 AN.

Notable figures
Eduardo Martinez-Vargas
Eduardo Martinez-Vargas (born 1698 AN) is considered New Alexandrianism's primary theoretical architect. A political philosopher at the Institute for Strategic Studies, Martinez-Vargas synthesized observations from the Spring Crisis into coherent ideological framework. His work "The Federal Compact: A New Vision" remains the movement's foundational text.
Isabelle Montclair
Constitutional scholar Isabelle Montclair (born 1702 AN) translated New Alexandrian theory into practical governance proposals. Her work advising the Federal Cultural Integration Program has shaped how New Alexandrian principles are implemented through existing governmental structures. Montclair's emphasis on institutional design has been particularly influential.
Dr. Amaru Quispe
Dr. Amaru Quispe (born 1695 AN) brought Wechua philosophical traditions into dialogue with modern political theory. His concept of "complementary diversity" provides intellectual foundation for productive pluralism. Quispe's work bridges traditional knowledge and contemporary governance, making him influential across diverse constituencies.
Yaima Orocobix
Wakara civic leader Yaima Orocobix (born 1716 AN) represents the Crisis Generation's embrace of New Alexandrian ideals. As founding president of Young Citizens of Nouvelle Alexandrie, Orocobix has mobilized youth participation in cultural integration initiatives while maintaining strong advocacy for Wakara cultural preservation. Her concept of "rooted cosmopolitanism" argues that deep cultural knowledge strengthens rather than undermines federal unity.
