Talk:Drak-Modan

How to differentiate Drak-Modan better from Natopia:

1. get rid of autonomous kingdom of Draconian... merge it and So-Sara into the Demesne of Draconia. use Draconian symbols as symbols for the monarchs

2. Draconian people welcomed into all of Drak-Modan, graft old ideas for Draconians onto Drak-Modanis.

3. Reorganized Bovinism: worship Butter Bull almost to the exclusion of the other parts of Bous.

4. innate Benacian xenophobia/superiority complex, human and Benacian supremacy

5. Draconians adopt Reorganized-Bovinism because it rejects the Pentheros as an authority and a culture shift from small, nomadic Traveller families towards large, settled, "Mormon" families that overcompensate Drak-Modani patriotism to hid the fact that they want to become dominant ethnic group in DM.

6. John participates in Bovic Quadratic marriage. for his 1st wife John selects a young Draconian woman from Dracoheim (DM) from a family claiming to have descended from Loki I (we'll call her Lokette). For his second, he selects a woman from Jugensk (we'll call her Karen). Then he selects a woman from Raynor Point (Griselia, idk) as fourth.

7. It is confirmed that Andrea is infertile (no more demons in DM... keep them in Goetia!) After a while Andrea just goes back to Goetia when anti-demon sentiment can no longer be contained. She makes Lokette the co-monarch on her way out.

8. John, Lokette, Susan, Griselia write Family Council rules, according to the family customs of the RMDS, that become de facto succession laws: John's heir (John II) must be one of their children; and Lokette's heir must be an unrelated Drak-Modani politician/good citizen (Mx Business) who is obligated by law to marry John II as soon either John I or Lokette dies. the Family Council/Royal Family thus controls who inherits the thrones, sibling and cousin marriage is strictly avoided; and a token separation between the agendas of the two co-monarchs is maintained. John II must chose his heir from his children and Mx Business must choose an unrelated citizen to be their heir.

9. Collapsing authority in periphery. Stricter control in core. More isolated against neighbors. Add the co-chancellors to the bovic marriage gimmick? Tetrarchy gimmick with 4 rulers over the 4 demesnes? Democracy distrusted.... the Fury reduced in power? Parties banned? Reduced? Appointed? Let Natopia have democracy, DM goes autocratic. Massive campaign to lure Draconians out of Natopia, right of return. Propaganda to highlight Benacian origin of Draconians.
