Political Lunarism is an ideology representing a broad range of political positions united by adherence to common religious and social values. It is typically authoritarian, theocratic, socially progressive, and economically ranges between the left and centre. Fundamentally, there are 3 different major strains of political Lunarism within the movement:

1. “Core”, “Centrist” or “Orthodox” Lunarism. It is characterised by Social-Authoritarianism, social progressivism, militarism, and a hybrid democratic-theocratic-stratocratic government. It is openly imperialistic diplomatically, and holds no issue with using underhanded tactics or resorting to cold pragmatism to achieve its political ends. This is currently the dominant strain of Lunarism.
2. “Left” Lunarism. Favours market socialism/cooperative capitalism and is distinctly more socially progressive than other Lunarists. It is opposed to stratocracy and believes that the military should serve the people and the faith rather than the other way round. Supports the strengthening of democratic institutions and favours a “cooperative imperialist” diplomatic agenda.
3. “Hardline” or “Extreme” Lunarism. Economically corporatist, diplomatically imperialistic, and explicitly theocratic and autocratic, desiring the abandonment of any and all democratic institutions. While often tolerant on some social issues such as gender and LGBT issues, it is frequently racially supremacist.
