A Parallel History
By Joseph Galascione
One of the most common arguments I receive from people, whether they are white nationalists, fence sitters or just lemmings, is that the American government will never be overthrown. It is too solid in its foundations to be able to even mildly damage it’s structure, let alone cause a total collapse. Not surprisingly, those who are rarely educated in Indo-European history make these statements. If one was to immerse themselves in the beauty and splendor that is our people’s culture they will start to see a parallel, which runs between every white racial type. Throughout our people’s rise from Cro-Magnon man to hunter/gatherer through the Hellenic Age till today there have been thousands of Indo-European civilizations blooming on every corner of the earth. Though I believe it to be impossible to thoroughly examine each example in one’s lifetime I have dedicated myself to the complete understanding and examination of the Roman Empire and have been astounded to find that the list of similarities between not only America but every Indo-European country and Rome are to extensive to even hope to list. But I feel there are some parallels that are more important than others and are perfect rebuttals to the pessimistic statements made by the uneducated. Please keep in mind that as I speak of the Roman Empire I am also speaking of every great White civilization that reached it’s zenith and slowly started to decline. The Sumerians, Greeks, Macedonians, Peloponnesians, Romans etc. all have a slightly different story of there eventual rise but all seem to have the same pattern to their decline. As a result I am going to focus on three specific areas on each establishment, the Governmental infrastructure, the religious foundations and the character of the populations. Keep in mind that various other elements contributed to the eventual fall of Rome but I feel the three listed above are the most important.
Governmental Infrastructure
The Roman state started as a monarchy nearly three thousand years ago. The most trusted authority on this era was Titus Livy whose works are still extant though they were written over 1900 years ago (Unfortunately only 35 of his original 142 books survived). Though our understanding of this time period and the stories that Livy and other Roman historians have passed down are not always entirely reliable we can safely proclaim that a kingdom ran the early Roman government. For two hundred and fifty years the Roman people lived and died under this rule until 507 BC when King Tarquin the Proud’s son raped a woman by the name of Lucretia. Such was the anger and animosity that arose in the Roman population over this one act that they swarmed into the city and expelled the King. (Imagine that an entire Kingdom was overthrown due to a prominent political figure engaging in a grotesque sexual act but the American people barely bat an eye when our president receives sexual favors from his Jewish mistress and then lies about it for years.) Thus began the era of the Roman Republic, which existed for over 750 years. In a republic the power of the government is invested solely in the people and is exercised by the Senators, which represent them. After a time the people went a step further and established tribunes of the plebs which were basically elected figures who had the power to exercise vetoes against any law or motion brought before the senate. As is obvious in this early time the people truly had a voice and a power if they chose to have it exercised. As can be assumed the Nationalism and patriotic spirit that a state such as this creates is phenomenal. An evident example is during the Second Punic War between the Carthaginians the war effort was immense and as a result the government became financially unable to continue to fund the various spheres of action. Without a moment’s hesitation the people came together and donated whatever valuables they had to the treasury in order that their country could continue the fight against Hannibal and that Rome could continue to grow as a nation. The Roman Republic continued its growth and expansion and eventually evolved into an Imperial government. This occurred with the murder of Julius Caesar and the subsequent opening that was left for his adopted nephew Octavian Augustus. As can be easily assumed the power was wrested from the people and left entirely in the hands of one man. To the surprise of many this act did not usher in an era of instability and collapse but rather through the good offices of Octavian the empire flourished in a way never before dreamed of. His moderate rule and love for his people blossomed the Roman State into a morally and politically solid empire that had the potential to endure for all time. Unfortunately this was not to last, as the multitude of successors to his throne were rarely sculpted in the same mold as he. Corruption, greed and lust became prerequisites for any who ventured towards the dictatorship. Each corrupt Casear opened the public’s eyes to how far their beautiful country had fallen and also slowly began to drain them of the patriotic spirit they used to so proudly possess. In this sorrowful example we clearly see that no matter how solid and strong a governmental infrastructure there is in place, without solid leadership it is doomed to failure.
Religious Foundations
No one is exactly clear whether the ancient Romans already had their religious ideals and principals in place before the state was founded or if they slowly evolved over the years from its inception. Of the books and texts that still exist which speak of the early history there is never a definite date as to when the Roman religion was adopted. Some believe it was taken from the Greeks as the stories and the characters each possesses are nearly identical. This is probably the strongest case because Aeneas who was a survivor of the sack of Troy supposedly founded Ancient Rome. What we do know is that Roman religion guided everyone in his or her activities. Generals were not allowed to commence war upon another people without the proper signs from the gods, the sacred chickens were addressed before a battle was to take place, sacrifices were made and the appearance of the victim’s entrails led to what course the government would take in it’s duties. When lightning struck a building or excessive amounts of hail fell form the sky they were believed to be portents and several days of religious intercessions would commence in an attempt to appease the vengeful gods. The entire population would be ordered to pray at specific temples, or dress in mourning garb. With a population who entirely worships and believes the same faith there is a universal camaraderie, which prevails and acts to bind the entire people together in a common belief and a common goal. However, as years passed and the system of government changed so did the religious beliefs of the populace. Gone were the Roman beliefs in Jupiter and Juno Minerva, in their place grew foreign beliefs and foreign customs. Christianity started to make its climb from the remote town of Jerusalem all the way to the heart of Rome. Gallic and Celtic gods started to adorn people’s homes. The Baccanalia cult started to grow in various regions and sectors. Even the Caesar was at times looked on as a god and prayed to as such. Gone was the camaraderie, replaced by a general feeling of weariness towards your fellow citizen. The Roman government would attempt to stamp out the various new rites and principals with varying success. At one time over 10,000 people were executed for being associated with the Baccanalia and it’s nocturnal practices of murder and rape. However, the schism was growing between the people.
With the acceptance of Christianity as the official religion of Rome by Constantine the division was complete. With no trust in the government to guide their religious feelings and practices the people turned within themselves and practiced their beliefs in their own separate way. Though generally not regarded as one of the reasons why Rome fell the divisions, which were created through the entire empire due to the loss of one universal religion, could only more quickly usher on the eventual collapse.
The character of the populations
The population of Rome was ever evolving and growing. As Rome became more prominent a city, people from the whole of the Italian peninsula flocked to her embrace. Despite these massive influxes of new blood the moral character of the early Romans was extremely strict and revolved around the central theme of honor. Honor to your name, your country, your household gods and your family. War was the ultimate measuring stick in the worth of a man and each would try to out do the other to bring back the spoils and the rewards. The wife was a cherished object to the man and they were treated as such. The women were responsible for the bringing up of the children and the maintance of the home. The children grew idolizing their fathers and dreaming of out doing them in the splendor of their name. But what is common in every society is the universal feeling of evolving above these values. Almost as if human beings are a species to which no codes of morality or character apply. Men become weak and yearn for financial comfort instead of battlefield glory. Women begin to drape themselves in excessive amounts of jewelry and adornments in an attempt to out do other women all the while forgetting her sacred duty of raising her family and loving her husband. The moral code of women began to slip. Fewer and fewer are wed as virgins and lead to men seeing them as less sacred to themselves. Marriages fail as a result and children grow without one of their parents. Religion became less of a prominent part in the family’s lives and with it they also lose the lessons on how to carry ones self. Sexuality became prevalent amongst the masses as brothels and “” began to dot the landscape. Society as a whole became less concerned with the affairs of the country and the people who were leading them and more interested in their various vices and pleasures. We can clearly see that a government is only as stable as the people on which it lays. As they become morally weak and brittle so to does the foundation of the entire establishment until it eventually collapses.
My original intention in writing this short work was to compare and contrast various Indo-European countries with Rome and so show the potential for change and rebirth. However that would have inevitably dragged this composition into infinity. I am quite sure that any who read what is written can clearly take the examples that have been set forth and compare them with whatever country he/she is most familiar with. I feel that it pertains to every Indo-European country on the planet. Each started with strict moral codes, rigid religious standards and honorable political leaders intending solely to advance their country to its zenith, as did Rome. But as each successive generation comes into it’s potential it seems to slip a little bit further than it’s predecessor. We may never see the eventual collapse of some of the present countries on this planet. But that does not mean that it will never happen. Nor does it mean we should be silent onlookers. We can surely take certain measures to make sure we strengthen our own cause and beliefs and create a solid foundation that can be put into place in the ashes of the decrepit institutions. The easiest way to do so is to learn everything one can about our race and what makes it so good and at the same time identify what can make us so weak. Some of those issues have been addressed but there are thousands more out there. Until we find, identify and eliminate our diseases our societies will continue to collapse and vanish into antiquity. However, once we have adapted to our true potential and rid ourselves of our self-destructive vices we will create an empire that will last a thousand years and usher on a new dawn.
