Hesperidesian Paternalism refers to the notion that the history of the Empire of Exponent, and by extension its successor states in the Blackhelm Confederacy and the Red River Free State, is inherently different from that of other nations. In this view, Hesperidesian Paternalism stems from its emergence during the Hesperidesian Crusades, and states that the history of the Hesperidesian powers has been driven primarily by the desire to fulfill a Christian duty to defend the lowest members of society and to spread the message of Catholicism. To this end, proponents of the philosophy of Hesperidesian Paternalism often point to the policies of Seorsus, which they claim have been set up in order to ensure a safe, stable existence for Hesperidesian natives, and to ensure that the various cultures of the native groups are able to be maintained without interference from the white ruling society.
