'''Livism''' (also spelt '''Livvism''') is a destructive ideology and practices associated with the politics of Liv Dravot, during her period as [[Shirerithian]] stateswoman. Liv Dravot is a namesake and was the main ideological designer of Livism. After Liv Dravot came to power, Livism spread like a plague over Micras.


== Description ==
It was through Livism, academics argue, rather than national humanism, that the [[Auspicious Occasion]] came to fruition, and the [[Froyalanish genocide|Froyalanish exodus]] was organised. Livism, not national humanism, influenced the new feudalism of post–Auspicious Occasion Shireroth where a strict hierarchy of people (nobles, denizens, loyal subjects, community servants, protected persons) was established in order to uphold stability and the maximization of happiness among all people in Shireroth. This Livist feudalism is today, however, only still applied in [[Shireroth]] and, among the [[Vulture States]], [[Sathrati]], while the more conservative national humanism has dominated the political direction in the [[Unified Governorates]] and [[Elwynn]], as well as, arguably, the other Vulture States with regard to their views on the Froyalanish question.


Livism is an extreme form of [[Nationalist and Humanist Party|national humanism]] and [[shire:Khanism|Khanism]], with strict consequentialist ethics. Livism contains anti-Froyalanism and [[Anti-Vanicism]]. It does not shun extreme consequences of exclusion, hatred, castration and mass murder.
== Franco-Batavian and Storish views ==


=== Characteristics ===
Livism is a controversial ideology. For example, Franco-Batavia and Stormark consider it a destructive ideology.


These are characteristics of Livism:
* War spirit: provoking war to discourage other players.
** Using mortar shells to shoot a speaker from another nation because there would be "sound pollution". This fallacy was used to violate sovereignty, provoking the [[Second Amokolian War]];
* Lack of imagination and jealousy: stealing creative ideas.
** After the Second Amokolian War was provoked, they set up their own "propaganda loudspeakers" along a border.
** Under suggestive arguments, taking back the character [[Clara Sundara]], thereby also taking the children with them, even though they were not self-created.
* Greatness madness and group madness: preserving the false narrative;
** Maintaining the legitimacy of Imperial Decree 969, excluding Harald van Stormark and others and completely ignoring enacted legislation. Substantiated counter-arguments are set aside without argument.
** Overreacting with all kinds of lying implications and thus elevating madness to everyday practice.
* Spreading lies: accusing others of what they themselves are guilty of.
** Lies of rape and hypersensitivity to nudity and sexuality.
* Game spoilage: the targeting of a few people to discourage them and get them out of the game in order to steal their cultural developments.
** Committing character assassination by framing players.
== History ==
=== Origins ===
It is thought that during the Second Froyalanish era, later called the Vanic era, between 1623 and 1650, jealousy and aversion to the Storish influences arose in Elwynn. [[Thorstein Noah]] married [[Kaiseress Noor]] in 1633 and had two children with her. This was apparently considered a threat, due to the allegation that Stormark was attempting to take over Elwynn and Shireroth.
=== Coup and exclusion ===
In 1651, under the leadership of Liv Dravot, a coup took place in Elwynn. As a Steward Liv Dravot issued an imperial decree accusing Thorstein Noah of demonism and ruling him out. This exclusion from the pretext of deposing Thorstein Noah as King of Elwynn.
=== Froyalanish Genocide ===
: ''Main article: [[Froyalanish genocide]]''
The Froyalanish genocide between 1651 and 1671, which occurred during what is known in Shireroth and the Raspur Pact as the Auspicious Occasion, started in 1651 AN. It was a calculated elimination of Shireroth's Froyalanish population following a controversial colonial campaign by the Storish-Elwynnese elite. In 1670, the Auspicious Occasion (as it was termed in extension) was announced by the imperial government to have been near completed. The population had then been reduced from over 65 million in 1650 to less than a million by 1670.
The elimination was effected by the castration of all Froyalanish men, causing them to be unable to reproduce, the forced servitude in the early days of the genocide to then be exiled in heavy workers' colonies across Shireroth. The government then instituted an organ donation scheme (using Froyalanish bodies, in Shireroth termed volunteers) to help the social rights of the Shirerithian nobility and denizenry. Shirerithian health statistics report consequently that fewer nobles and denizens than ever before died from somatic illnesses largely in thanks to the organ donation.
After the [[Kalirion Fracture]] and the revival of the [[Kingdom of Amokolia]], [[Arkadius Frederik Gustavus des Vinandy]] acknowledged the Froyalanish genocide. By treaty the remaining Froyalanians were liberated.
=== Law and justice ===
With the establishment of the [[Froyalan Tribunal]], the crimes committed by the followers of Livism are thoroughly investigated. This tribunal has already ruled that the exclusion of Thorstein Noah was illegal, his deposition as King of Elwynn illegal and the annulment of his marriage to Kaiseress Noor illegal.
== Livist Nations ==
The following nations are to a greater or lesser extent in the influence of Livism:
* [[Elwynn|Elwynnese Republic]], sometimes called "Livist Elwynn";
* [[Natopia|Bovic Empire of the Natopian Nation]];
* [[Sanama|Democratic Federation of Sanama]];
* [[Unified Governorates of Benacia]].
Many other nations are guilty of tampering with the Livist nations. These nations are the willing sheep under the spell of the Livist power game.
== Free Nations ==
The nations that present themselves as anti-Livism regard themselves as "Free Nations". This is because these nations do not have all the destructive features of Livism. Freedom in these nations is guaranteed by a strict principle of law and order, such as: freedom of speech, freedom to wear clothes (or not), respect for agreements made and compliance with commitments.
The following nations consider themselves a "Free Nation":
* [[Batavia|Kingdom of Batavia]];
* [[Francia|Frankish Empire]];
* [[Stormark|High Realm of Stormark]].

Livism (also spelt Livvism) is the ideology represented by the politics of Shirerithian stateswoman and Imperial Mother Liv Dravot (1615–1663). It is closely related to national humanism and Khanism though is often seen as a more radical and pure form, in terms of ethics, of these two. In Livism, a strict consequentialist ethic is followed, contrasted to the more pragmatic nature and deontological ethics of national humanism. As such, Livism teaches that if the moral (good) outcome of an intended action is greater than the harm it causes, it is the moral imperative to perform that action.

It was through Livism, academics argue, rather than national humanism, that the Auspicious Occasion came to fruition, and the Froyalanish exodus was organised. Livism, not national humanism, influenced the new feudalism of post–Auspicious Occasion Shireroth where a strict hierarchy of people (nobles, denizens, loyal subjects, community servants, protected persons) was established in order to uphold stability and the maximization of happiness among all people in Shireroth. This Livist feudalism is today, however, only still applied in Shireroth and, among the Vulture States, Sathrati, while the more conservative national humanism has dominated the political direction in the Unified Governorates and Elwynn, as well as, arguably, the other Vulture States with regard to their views on the Froyalanish question.

Franco-Batavian and Storish views

Livism is a controversial ideology. For example, Franco-Batavia and Stormark consider it a destructive ideology.
