'''National Syncretism''' or '''Sincretismo Nacional''' is a {{wpl|far right}}, ideology created in Elaklania by former President, professor, and revolutionary, [[Pascual Josué Obregón]]
'''National Syncretism''' or '''Sincretismo Nacional''' is a {{wp|third way}}, {{wp|authoritarian}}, {{wp|ultranationalist}} ideology created in Elaklania by former President, professor, and revolutionary, [[Pascual Josué Obregón]]. It is characterized by {{wp|dictatorial leadership}}, {{wp|collectivism}}, {{wp|militarism}}, {{wp|civic nationalism}}, and the belief that the state should bend its ideology right or left to serve the best interests of the people. 
 
National Syncretism was popularized in early 20th century Elaklania. It emerged during the [[Second Elaklanian Civil War]] before expanding into [[Nastanovo]] and other countries in Cesylle, though it would not rise to prominence past Elaklania and has stayed predominantly a Elaklanian ideology.
 
Syncretists saw the accession of Obregón from a simple Professor to the new leader of Elaklania as proof of the ideologies credible and as Obregón’s reign brought Elaklania to new heights of development this belief only became more widespread. Syncretists reject both {{wp|socialism}} and {{wp|capitalism}} instead believing in Obregón’s theory of [[ideological annihilation]], where to be above ideology the government must shift from socialism to conservatism depending on the needs of the people. Generally Syncretists agree that interventionist autarky, a strong vanguard party, and a nationalist populace are core values of National Syncretism.
 
In the modern day, Elaklania has abandoned many of the more radical positions of Syncretism leading many to wonder what the future of the ideology will be as fundamentalists struggle to keep the old principles intact in the face of mounting liberal pressure.

===Background===
===Background===
The 1st Republic had been established under the ideals of [[Hugo Bolek]] a early {{wp|liberal}} & {{wp|libertarian}} theorist, and the first president of Elaklania. His free market and decentralized policies slowly eroded much of the newly created freedoms that the Elaklanian people had gained during the second revolution.
In the place of democracy a two party system was created, on side there was the [[Radical Party (Elaklania) | Radical Party]], which represented Puerto Botina and the interests of the liberal land owners, on the other side there was the [[Federalist Reaction]], which represented Ciudad Fernando and the interests of the conservative farmers. The two party system was predicated on every election allowing the opposing party to win instead of having a fair election, this allowed for the two parties to maintain a business relationship while also keeping the country together through friendly presidents.
By the early 1900s this practice would become known as [[City to City Politics]], it reflected the growing sentiment that the two parties represented the interests of cliques in major cities rather than what the public wanted. All this would change in 1912, when after refusing to let their candidate, Isaías Elvira, lose the Radicals would remain in office; this would ignite a political crisis as the Federalists would declare the election fraudulent; raising local state armies to support their candidate. The Radicals would raise their own armies to suppress the Federalists and by March of that year a civil war would be in full swing, quickly the two sides would split into four factions, each representing a major city and their own respective President.

===Founding===
===Founding===
Before the civil war, [[Pascual Josué Obregón]], would be working as a professor in Puerto Bontia, 48 in 1912 Obregón was well known for his radical views and his visceral hatred for the government. Obregón in 1897 had written a book on his theory of [[Ideological Annihilation]] which described in detail his view of ideology and how he believed that an ideology could achieve annihilation of all ideologies through a combination of materialism and idealism.
This eventually led to the publication of the [[Syncretist Manifesto]] in early 1911, while it would not take off in the public eye it would become a hot topic within the intelligentsia and Obregón would become a rising star among colleges all over the country. When the civil war finally broke out in 1912 Obregón would immediately start working with anti government groups in Puerto Bontia.
Organizing the first [[Revolutionary Guard (Elaklania) | Revolutionary Guard]] units in Elaklanian history, drawing recruits from colleges and universities across the capital he’d inspire them with his manifesto. Regular workers would also join the revolutionary guard as its size greatly trumped any other rebel militia in the capital, using his new paramilitary forces Obregón would begin to capture the capital.
[[President Isaías Elvira]], the leader of the radical faction controlling the capital, would order two armies to withdraw from the frontier and destroy the revolutionary guard. Once the armies arrived there would be conflict among them as parts of them would refuse to shoot on civilians that were part of the revolutionary guard, eventually this would spiral into rebellion and multiple units would join the revolutionary guard destroying their former allies.
President Isaías Elvira would flee the capital before being killed by defectors near the [[Enspa]] state border. With a victory after only three days Obregón would turn the revolutionary guard into a revolutionary government, forming a congress of representatives from around his territory he’d begin his own campaign to recapture the country.
It’s from here that the National Syncretism would begin to take off as the news of Obregón’s government would spread to other regions where the popularity of the factions were already abysmal. Obregón would become the face of the anti-City to City Politics faction which also simultaneously brought his ideas to the attention of thousands across Elaklania.

===The New Republic===
After the civil war and a quick snap election Obregón would be made President of the United States of Elaklania; while at first at the helm of a skeleton government created during the war he’d quickly pass the current constitution of Elaklania which would give him near absolute powers over the country. In this early period he’d make his party, the [[Party of the National Revolution]] the sole legal party in the country; banning all other parties from being allowed to participate in any elections or be present in the [[National Congress]]. While opposition to Obregón’s unitary government did exist, his dictatorial control of the state gave him plenty of ways to rid opposition from important positions.
The following years would see Obregón pass sweeping reforms over the country nationalizing businesses and creating new industries under state ownership, all part of his autarkic economic reform plan. By 1920 the Elaklanian economy has grown passed the highest point during the Republic, Obregón’s popularity soared while the country underwent a complete transformation, Elaklania was now a powerhouse in its own right.

The function of civic nationalism as a mechanism to promote care for the country over one’s self is a core principle of National Syncretism. Dr.Lucián Guillén says “Nationalism in the Syncretic sense abandons the romantic roots of the concept and instead seeks to promote a unique utilitarian idea of nationalism.” This follows Obregón’s idea that nationalism is a fundamental function in a country and that it can not be overcome but simply restructured to fulfill its purpose more efficiently.

Syncretists view race as a falsehood rejecting racial nationalism, in this way they believe that racism alongside minority liberation movements are both obstructions to the function of the state. To National Syncretism all people must be under a single identity so they can effectively care for the state instead of whatever racial identity they may inherit, once this occurs the state can begin fixing the problems in society such as poverty, inequality, and racism.
In practice Syncretists often hold a bias to races not from the country they hold nationalism for, however in Elaklania for instance the state is ardently anti racist, though it has policies that clamp down on certain cultural practices from other parts of the world.
While being against racism the ideology is still highly associated with {{wp|revanchism}}, with Syncretists believing that the state must be cared for and part of that includes it being at its highest point of existence.

In Elaklania service to the state is a national policy that is premeditated into the public consciousness through propaganda and indoctrination, every facet that the government has is used to fetishize the ideology.

Obregón wrote “The economic situation of the world has proven the inefficiencies of capitalism, we however must not rush head forward into socialism; but rather take a materialist approach and implement the best possible economy we can create with the two systems.”
In the end National Syncretism establishes an economy of {{wp|materialism}}, as an important part of the end goal of a {{wp|utilitarian}} society.

National Syncretism is highly associated with two artistic movements, {{wp|Expressionism}} and {{wp|Realism}}; one of the focuses of the National Revolution in Elaklania specifically was art. President Obregón greatly disliked the growth of new art during the times of the Republic and sought to purge it with the introduction of state sponsored art installations and public pieces, of course all in his favorite style of realism.

This style of realism would take some deviations exploring not only modern Elaklanian life but the hypothetical future of Elaklanian life under National Syncretism.

In Syncretist theory there are six agreed upon major pieces of political literature; while the first few books are considered absolute, the final few are heavily debated within factions of the [[Party of the National Revolution|NRP]]. Starting with the “Theory of Ideological Annihilation, a critic of the libertarian philosophy” written in 1897 by Pascual Josué Obregón the book criticizes the ideology of the Republic; calling it “libertarian idealism” Obregón states that scientific materialism will one day take hold and that a new ideology will emerge to lead the {{wp|proletariat}} to a {{wp|utilitarian}} society.
The book received major attention in the intelligentsia at the time, becoming a popular subject of debate among the radical anti government groups.

National Syncretism or Sincretismo Nacional is a third way, authoritarian, ultranationalist ideology created in Elaklania by former President, professor, and revolutionary, Pascual Josué Obregón. It is characterized by dictatorial leadership, collectivism, militarism, civic nationalism, and the belief that the state should bend its ideology right or left to serve the best interests of the people.

National Syncretism was popularized in early 20th century Elaklania. It emerged during the Second Elaklanian Civil War before expanding into Nastanovo and other countries in Cesylle, though it would not rise to prominence past Elaklania and has stayed predominantly a Elaklanian ideology.
