of migrants and “travelers,” – contributed to modern Western civilization. All migrants, even the ancients (Darians, Latins, migrants from the Old World to America), had new laws in use. These laws rejected the “tails” of the old privileged clans, peoples, and families. Slowly, informal laws were replaced by formal laws, which were recorded and observed by everyone.

      In Asia, the opposite is true. No one migrates, and everyone has been fine for centuries. That’s why a kind of eternal Asian conservatism has turned out. Whatever country you take, dictators rule everywhere. Because tradition is based on the root. Of course, you understand that. Why didn’t people fly into space from Egypt and Mesopotamia? Because huge pyramids caught on the tail of ancient civilizations and were not allowed into space.

      It is better to be a migrant in this picture of a market-democratic future because all migrants are rootless. Nothing was pressing on them, and nothing was pressing on them. They found it difficult to show their arrogance. Who are you? – they could have told every upstart.

      It’s better to be a migrant but not a nomad.

      Nomads made annual raids along the old routes, essentially repeating the farmers’ sitting in one place; only some moved and returned to their original place. A nomad needs to go as far as possible along the route to take up more space to designate your land. This designation is repeated in time. On the contrary, the farmer “likes” to sit in one place. This community and the state of farmers are expanding, and the farmer dreams of acquiring a new plot. This perpetual movement with a small “rest” predetermined the technical lag of the nomads from the farmers. It’s not even about the late development of technology and, consequently, modernization in a cruel way (from anyone, but we are only interested in the Bolsheviks and why it happened. Without Stalin’s brutal modernization, it would have been even more difficult for the modern descendants of nomads to get used to Western civilization; even more, perhaps, they would have been threatened with complete disappearance. Even today, after the Soviet experience of modernization, Kazakhs remain imitators and consumers. Actually, who doesn’t imitate and consume in this world today? The only thing that remains as hope is a centralized state. This is very important for any nation. Without a central authority, every person is a miserable loner, a small boat in a market ocean. We must protect our state. But first, you have to come to him so that you can appreciate him later. Meanwhile, the nomads never loved the state, and they loved freedom. Because they loved freedom, they called themselves Cossacks.

      The Japanese people, for example, have spent a lot of effort and time on centralization for almost 200 years. The samurai first took power from the aristocracy, then staged a civil war with each other. Tokugawa Shogun overcame the feudal fragmentation of the island. Of course, the island situation and the lack of large resources interesting to Europeans helped the Japanese. The Japanese managed and met with the Europeans – the future world colonizers – already in a centralized state. This was of paramount importance. The Japanese did not have to jump through formations like the Kazakhs immediately into socialism. After the shogunate, the imperial power helped to carry out rapid reforms. Already 36 years after the “Meiji Restoration” – the beginning of reforms – a victory was won over tsarist Russia and ten years before that over China. In 1904, Japan showed the imperial navy’s power and its admirals’ skill.

      Moreover, a form of state nationalism or nationalism under the leadership of the emperor himself helped Japan. Japan has followed the path of all Europeans – and turned into a nation of militarists in a very short period. The German National Socialists, that is, the European analog of state Nazism, had a much larger time reserve – several centuries. However, Prussia and Bismarck formally united all Germans only in 1870.

      Did the Japanese have an intelligentsia to educate chauvinists? It was not so powerful in scientific and intellectual, but it was (in the form of storytellers, myth-makers, and syncretisers, but Japan has its scientists and its own professors).

      Japan needed resources.

      Japan was poor in mineral resources, but all Japanese ministers were great-grandchildren of samurai. If Japan opened the doors to European technology and culture, then the inevitable happened: the imposition of modernization, economic growth, and population on the traditional Japanese craft – on the war. The Germans also had the Prussian military in reserve, and the Prussian military relied on the tradition of the Teutonic Order. There is nothing unexpected in this world!

      There were no other ethnic groups in Japan except the Japanese. Where did the so-called Japanese nationalism come from?

      There was no nationalism in the way the layman understood it in Japan. This is a state nationalism invented and controlled by imperial ideologists. The Japanese elite gathered and decided for the whole nation. Japanese nationalism is rather Japanese patriotism because the state completely governed it. Every Japanese before Emperor Meiji and the crossing of borders was inspired that the Japanese were the chosen race on earth. Watching East Asia die under the onslaught of European merchants and colonization, the Japanese could think that they were the best. And it affected the Japanese character.

      If the Japanese seemed depressed after 1945 after the deposition of the emperor, this defeat resembled the soldiers’ failure and did not affect the Japanese character. So, a temporary setback. The main thing is that the bulk of modern Japanese is a reflection of the Remids, the Remids of the statesmen. This is because the modernization of Japan took place under the Japanese leadership. But most importantly, the aristocracy has been preserved in Japan. The aristocracy never steals. Never and nowhere.

      The emperor’s power and the state had a paternal influence on Japanese society. Every government must care for its Remids, including every sovereign government (especially former historical nomads); otherwise, it will lose centralization. Centralization is the main value of all people. Without centralization, there will be a quick end, rapid disintegration under the influence of tribal or feudal culture. This is called a “fraternal massacre” (and the Kazakhs did not fully survive the zeref reflection). The market excites degradation, especially if the people have never had so-called citizens. Citizens appeared all over the world when people had private property. Then, these citizens fought for democracy. If the people have never known private property, and the nomads have never known it, then the people are always threatened with a “fraternal massacre”. It is the state that saves from the massacre.

      The state may not be able to stand it, and the state is just a form of organization of people. Unless, of course, the government will continue “reforms” based on the traditional (primitive) personnel policy. The future of this state depends on which people are at the top. Either the state or death! This is the greatest danger if people still remember their kind, even symbolically and ritually. Each physical majority forms its leaders.

      If market reflection penetrates into people who are not independent or complex but immediately militant and proud, these people will only accumulate material values to show their superiority. This is a primal quality. Therefore, the value of reflection is in the first place here.

      What is nationalism? This is a massive desire to dominate yesterday’s artisans, townspeople, and peasants. They were humiliated by the traditional elite. Now they want to “humiliate”, and put any arrogant president in his place.

      If feudal consciousness meets with market nationalism, then it turns out not a mass of free citizens as in Europe, but only a mass of feudal lords. And feudal lords always tear the state apart. The feudal lords of the state do not need anything. “It’s wet in the yard; start over”.

      The voice of blood

      It is very far to Japan from Kazakhstan. Despite such a distance, the Kazakhs from the Union time were well aware of the Japanese. First of all, they knew according about the famous Toyota, Nissan, and Mitsubishi cars, these
