Hanazono(花園) Party / Neo-Shinto Party
The Hanazono Party is a recent, more extreme offshoot of the Sunrise party centered around the Neo-Shinto faith and headed by the Kazu Shrine Family. While the Hanazono party shares many goals with the Sunrise party, including traditional values, military strength, and general isolationism, on specific policies and goals the Hanazono takes a much more unflinching and extreme approach.
The Hanazono Party holds as irrefutable fact that a steady blade balances the soul, a balanced soul purifies the heart, and a pure heart holds a steady blade. While the Sunrise Party has done great work for the society and people of Kusari, the lack of connection between law and spiritual guidance leaves room for poisoned thoughts to seep into society and weaken the strong foundation that the Sunrise Party has left Kusari with. Strict spiritual guidance will keep the people of Kusari healthy, strong, and prepared for the eventual assaults from outside.
Main objectives:
1. Mandatory military training for all adult citizens, and 18 months mandatory military service for adult males between the ages of 17 and 25.

11. Establish and enshrine Neo-Shinto festivals and holidays as Imperial Holidays.
12. Establish personal purity laws.

Sunrise PartySunrise Party Manifesto
Standing the test of many centuries, our morals that showed no defect from the times of our earliest ancestors, combined with the high character of our people, Kusari set up an example for the whole of Sirius to follow. With the protection of our ancestors and the infinite wisdom of our Emperors, Kusari stood tall and mighty among all the other Houses.
![[Image: sjZpCL0.png]](http://i.imgur.com/sjZpCL0.png)
Tested by the gods, we had to give many of our heroes as sacrifices. The defense of our country came into question with every losing battle on the Bretonian front, with every Gallic Vessel deterred, with every Rheinländer who betrayed the friendship we enjoyed. Our nation overcame many crises, many more than ever before. And the times call for us to prepare for another sacrifice in defense of our nation.
We have faced the tides of war many times, we shall never forget the heroes who stood vigil in the face of death, who fought for their home.
We shall never abandon what they gave their lives for. Our mighty Imperial Navy shall remain strong.
We cannot answer our heroes, our sacrifices, in the afterlife, if we allowed ground for any factors weakening our Kusari. Corporate greediness, corruption and other disturbances have no place in Kusari, for we shall not accept these issues to risk the safety and future of our people.
We are bound with honor and tradition to protect our Kusari from the forces that seek to harm it from outside and inside. We vow to die before seeing the future of our children threatened. This is the Sunrise Party.
Despite our promises being centered on security matters, we are also concerned with the welfare of our people and are well aware of the fact that Kusari can not survive without its economy. Neither its citizens can live decently, without a good enough income.
Furthermore, our House can only survive with secured resources, allowing our defensive capabilities to be continuously restored and build up, and thus, allowing Law enforcers to ensure our economy prospers. Securing resources through strategic partnerships, economic sanctions or military intervention will mark a key milestone of our ambitions.
The preservation of this virtuous circle is what we stand for.
We are aware of our ambitious project, which will require all our citizens to be dutiful and ready to serve Kusari with joy in their hearts. We'll cherish with them their patriotism, their hard work, and their good will. Our community will once more rediscover their self-worth and their values, becoming happier, better and stronger themselves as they strive for a better Kusari together with their loved ones and fellow people. We have taken many steps in the right direction within the past years, thanks to the invaluable commitment of our nation's people to bring our project one step closer to reality and remain committed to see it to its end.
In order to safeguard the project's further development, the Empire needs to stay vigilant and combat ready - but it will also require its new-found partners to remain strong. Only a healthy sector can be stabilized.
The objectives we achieved since 827 A.S.
We promise to focus on these objectives:
We humbly seek your support and your trust in us, so we can restore our Kusari to its lost nature with hard work and vigilance, learning from our past and building for our future.
Yet, we - the Kusari people - had to face many difficulties:
- Decades of warfare against several foes
- Economic hardships caused by natural catastrophes
- Terrorist attacks
Tested by the gods, we had to give many of our heroes as sacrifices. The defense of our country came into question with every losing battle on the Bretonian front, with every Gallic Vessel deterred, with every Rheinländer who betrayed the friendship we enjoyed. Our nation overcame many crises, many more than ever before. And the times call for us to prepare for another sacrifice in defense of our nation.
We have faced the tides of war many times, we shall never forget the heroes who stood vigil in the face of death, who fought for their home.

- Enforce penalties for promoting disruptive ideologies like that of the Golden Chrysanthemums, Technocrats or other ideologically charged criminal organizations, with a focus on rehabilitation where possible.
To summarize,
- We aim to retain the strength of Kusari both in character and with military might.
- We aim to bolster Kusari economy by exacting costs from foreigners who would exploit us.
- We aim to limit the use of arms and strike craft amongst non-peacekeepers in order to decrease the amount of space faring criminals.
- We aim to stabilize our economic assets and deter those standing in our nation’s way, militarily, economically and socially.
We humbly seek your support and your trust in us, so we can restore our Kusari to its lost nature with hard work and vigilance, learning from our past and building for our future.
