James Doone asks whether Europe can escape the twin traps of liberal globalism and fractured nationalism and create a new imperial order strong enough to survive the coming age of continental powers.
The fate of nations is intimately bound up with their powers of reproduction. All nations and all empires first felt decadence gnawing at them when their birth rate fell off.

There is a major problem afflicting modern Europe (there are many, such as liberalism, modernism, free-marketism etc.) but the principal one that shall be dealt with in this article is that of the issue of national vs supranational identity and order. Brexit came about, not from desires of economic theory, or data, or spreadsheets, and this was the mistake of our overlords, for they thought that they could win the Brexit debate by printing off graphs and speculations, but they didn’t see that the people were not thinking with their rational thought processes, but rather with their spirit, their soul-thinking aspect. The masses of Britannia voted for tribal independence, and liberty from a supramanagerial liberal leviathan, but they got homegrown managerial liberalism all the same—as does the entire collective West. Nobody can deny the decline. Once Europe was like golden Troy, sat atop the other kingdoms of the Hellespont, all the princes of Pergamum, Pontus, Cappadocia, and the far Indus paid homage to the King of Troy and feared the armies under Hector the noble prince, and yet now Troy is a ruin, a memory, dusty stones on which shepherds herd their goats and sheep to graze on the plains and talk more of crops. Europe was once the centre of the world, even in the lifetime of those still alive; my own grandmother was born in the age of empire. How far we have fallen in the space of 90 years!
Europe will never be strong, prosperous, or normal until the cancer of Woke is abolished by law. Patriotism is good, natural and beneficial to a tribe. Nationalism is based not on the nous but rather on the thymos and even worse on the epithumia. Even if the French civilisation is the best the world has ever seen (top 3), does that mean France should pour hot coals onto the heads of the Japanese (a great civilisation) or the Hungarians (a unique expression of Cuman culture) or others for not reaching their level? I think not, for such hate can only consume you. I have no problem with Mongols being Mongol in Mongolia, the land of their ancestors, same for all sons of Adam.
Europe cannot allow itself to be split apart by petty prideful nationalism, one group trying to measure its stick as bigger than the others; this is barbarous foolishness. Instead the nations of Europe, the sons of Hyperborea, need to be united into a union, a true union, a Männerbund, a masculine solar alliance of sovereign but united nations. Each tribe shall run its own internal affairs but outside the alliance of the nations shall be of one mind, united in a common defence, and a common spirit and a pan-European identity. Europe needs to become the new HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE, and contrary to that oaf Voltaire, the HRE was Holy, was Roman, and was an empire. Europe needs to truly connect with its Roman, Germanic, Greek and Slavic bio-essence, and thymotic spirit, so the culture of pan-Europa can flourish anew. The power of the dying eagle of Washington is loosening its death grip on Gondor, and we Gondorians, we men of Numenor of the West, are starting, ever so slowly, to become more free of the poison honey that the eagle drips into our ears. But the most dangerous beast is one that is injured and cornered, and then there is the Asian tiger of China to think about, for the coming centuries shall be dominated by a Chinese hegemon; fealty shall be paid to imperial Peking rather than hollowed out New York in the coming ages. The history of the world is the history of empires, and small nations belong to one whether they want to or not; in the 20th century, one decided whether to be a part of the US or the USSR. Do you think Lesbos had a choice as to which league it was to be under? Athens or Sparta, no. The Athenians simply said that they were. Did Phillip of Macedon give Thebes the choice? No, for his phalanxes did the talking.
The Republic will be reorganised into the first, galactic, empire, for a safe and secure society.

Only by becoming a united federation can Europe hope to survive and hopefully rival the twin powers of the USA and the CCP. Brexit and all other movements must not succeed, for such breaking apart of the European fabric makes Europa weaker. This was the major problem of the Stormcloaks of Skyrim: they made the lands of men weaker and more feeble in the eyes of the Mer and of the Thalmor.
Europe must become a united federation of small kingdoms, dukedoms, republics, principalities and commonwealths. Only by these small units can true local culture thrive and only by being united into a single empire can Europe hope to prevent American or Chinese domination of Europa. Ethno-pluralism (EP) should be the new ideology of the Right, and not nationalism, for nationalism, as De Benoist and others have shown, was the original globalism. To the Italians, regional identities are of more weight than the Italian one is; ask an Italian what they are and they shall say, “I am Milanese”, “I am Roman”, “I am Venetian”, “I am Florentian”, “I am of Naples”, and so on. So should it be in somewhere like Germany, where men should say: I am of Bavaria, I am of Hesse, I am of Saxony, I am of Baden, and so forth. The only way to protect the historic regional identities, cultures and languages is to promote devolution to the Nth degree to abolish centralisation. Otherwise the already decimated regionalness and linguas of Brittany and Breton, Aquitaine and Gascon, Toulouse and Occitan, Savoy and Savoyard, Anjou and Angevin, and so on shall be made extinct by the French revolutionary idea of a unitary state. This is why the union of Great Britain needs to be legally dissolved as the idea of Britishness shall consume the regional identities of the Cornish, Wessexians, Northumbrians, and Mercians etc. Scots should have their own, English their own, Irish their own, and Welsh their own.
Prioritising the local does not destroy the national, but it is a question of priority, and to me, my local county is all there is. If China wants to make Scotland a vassal (though I do not wish that for the Scots), what is that to me?
The idea of The People being the principle of sovereignty is a post-French Revolution idea for the medieval idea was that sovereignty came from God and was placed onto the monarch who ruled by divine right. Modernity needs to be dissolved and the medieval ideas need to come back. Only then shall Europe be healed.
Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity. And so we ask ourselves: will our actions echo across the centuries? Will strangers hear our names long after we are gone, and wonder who we were, how bravely we fought, how fiercely we loved?
— Odysseus (Troy, 2004).
Quo vadis, Europa?
