Madagascan Empire

Inca: The Incans believed in a set of deities that were all powerful and controlled everything, including crops and agriculture. They believed in human sacrifice to please their gods. In Madagascar we do not believe in human sacrifice. There is not much religion besides staying honorable and loyal to the Madagascan Empire.

Aztec: The Aztecs served as mercenaries, negotiated elite marriage alliances with them, and has large military power. They were a violent war nation. In Madagascar, we are a trade centered empire, thriving on trade with Europe and China, along with collecting a toll for allowing ships to pass between us and Africa. We have a relatively strong naval fleet.

Ming: The Ming government was a very centralized government. The power all in the hands of the emperor. The emperor had a very loyal group of men exercising great power and authority. The emperor worked towards restoring China from the mongol years. In Madagascar, we have a dictator ship, where all the power is in the hands of one leader. This is kinda similar to that of the Ming. But in madagascar the dictator did not have a loyal group of men enforcing power, but instead had one assistant helping carry out his responsibilities, which were very few in Madagascar.

Spain: When spain made its conquest of south america it created new colonial societies. At the top were spanish settlers, followed by mestizos, who were mixed race between the spanish and the natives. next came the natives who were greatly disrespected. In Madagascar we don't have a social ladder. All are mostly equal in a non-communist way. No one wants to be best, everyone wants to just be friends with each other and continue living life, working together to strengthen the Madagascan Empire.

Europe: In europe the Renaissance caused science and art advancements to boom. Society began to focus more on art and realism. Creating sculptures and painting with much detail, trying to portray things as they are in real life. Also, huge advancements were made in astronomy, geography and mathematics. In Madagascar we don't focus at all on art or science. Instead we mostly focus on innovation, and on trade. We try to think about how to get a step ahead in trading, and how to have more power over the trade system
