Ranyaism

Ranyaism (Qübün: Fágdö Ranyaiy /ɸɑ:ktə raɲaɪj/) is a political ideology pioneered by the Qübu revolutionary Úbor Ranya in his 1971 book Any-Qübu. It is a form of right-wing democratic Qübüji nationalism, often tied to religious militancy. Ranyaism promotes the idea of the traditionalist conservative representative democracy, where the government serves primarily to protect the native culture of the people and prevent outside influence. Ranya repeatedly condemned foreign missionaries and merchants, and Ranyaist writings generally reflect isolationist, autarkic, or xenophobic views, believing that the monarchy had submitted to foreign pollution of Qübüji values and culture. He also supported the Qübüji nationalist ideal of Agyia or Agyosite blood, where the "blood of Agyöš Mallányi" is venerated, encouraging the deification of various Coburian historical figures. Agyia is also associated with the psuedo-oligarchic ideals of Ranya, who believed that elected officials should be chosen from only certain classes, particularly from among the military or the clergy, and that restriction should be eligible for office.

Ranyaism originated as a militant subgroup in the Qübu Republican Front, associated with the removal of the church-state divide and retaliation against colonial powers. During the brief tenure of the Ranyaist Farákh Rogy as Revolutionary Overseer of Qübüj before the establishment of democracy in the country, non-Qübüji were barred from public office and voting by a series of laws written by Ranya, which were upheld by Ranya during his organisation of the Republican Senate and later by Garáš Aföčny. While Ranyaism was the dominant ideology among the Qübu Republican revolutionaries, especially after the deposition of the king and establishment of the Republican Senate, Ranyaism was outlawed in Coburia following Aföčny's rise to power. Ranyaist groups still operate covertly in and around Coburia, mostly former revolutionaries and members of the defunct Baigá Republican Party of Qübüj.

In modern Qübüji nationalism, Ranyaism exists in opposition to Aföčnyism. While Ranyaism advocates a federal state centered on religious traditionalism and representative democracy, Aföčnyism supports a unitary state under military rule where complete self-sufficiency is observed. Despite the banning of official Ranyaist politics, support for Ranya's model remains high in the Qübüji public, so the Aföčnyist government mostly retains the veneer of Ranya's traditionalist democratic state.
