Arcerion: Difference between revisions

=== Arcer Culture ===

Arcer society and culture is largely influenced by Ardmori island culture, as well as influences from Levantine Ængles and Gaels. As a nation of immigrants, Arcerion is generally considered to be a 'melting pot' of different cultural, ethnic, and social backgrounds. While early on in its history Arcerion had social classes well defined by the Ardmori peerage system, these slowly were either disregarded or dismantled, and the idea of landed gentry and landowners were replaced with the communal spirit of settling the Arco frontier. Arcer culture largely revolves around a series of social norms based upon Arco Determinism, which is the governing social ethos and comunal memory of the Arco nation.  

=== Arco Determinism ===

''Main Article: [[Arco Determinism]]''

Arco Determinism, also known as Frontier Spirit, is the governing political and cultural philosophy of Arcer citizens, a group of Cronan-naturalized Ardmori and Gaelic peoples who arrived between the 18th and 20th centuries to Southern Crona. The central ideology of Arcerion is a cultural and societal belief that the Arcer people (of the two major migratory groups during the colonial era) are destined to settle, civilize, and create a modern Occidental state in Crona. Concurrent to this, it is a common goal of the society and culture to defend Arcerion and its people, and by extension extend the rule of the Ardmori Crown. It also represents a common ethnic and cultural heritage from AEngles, Gaels, and Ardmori peoples on values such as community, the family compact, and self-reliance.
