[[Khanism]] is a political ideology of [[Babkha|Babkhan]] origin, founded by [[Ardashir Khan]] that promotes the virtues of a Harmonious Society served by a Coordinated State and advanced through relentless struggle against rival powers and competitor species.

It has, at various times during the course of the history of [[Micras]] served as the underlying ideology of regimes and political movements in [[Babkha]], [[Elwynn]] and [[Shireroth]] as well as in the armed forces of countries whose militaries have, at one time or another, been reorganised along Babkhan lines.

The Coordinated State portrayed itself as a progressive society that aimed towards a global human supremacy and off-world settlements, albeit considered to be unlikely to be realised in the lifetime of anyone alive at the time. The vision sold to the populace encapsulated rising living standards, a post-scarcity economy and further reductions in crime and lawlessness.

As long as order was maintained people declared themselves to be generally confident that the situation will continue to improve over the long term. Studies by the Panopticon Department into public morale however showed that this acquiescence was fundamentally fragile, as the eventual overthrow of the regime showed.

The Prince failed as a ruler if he failed to fulfil his mandate as described by the Charter of Coordination or if he was treacherous ([[Jacobus Loki|Loki]]) or weak, incoherent and irresolute ([[Nathaniel Ayreon-Kalirion|Nathaniel]]). The Prince could be voted out of office at the elections, impeached by the Senate or overthrown by the [[UDF]] if he loses the backing of the military. In the event of a military coup the Prince would be replaced by a ''Condcuator'' who would have the responsibility of restoring an acceptable status quo.
