Speculations How advanced do you think the ancient kingdom was?
- Thread starter Impact
- Start date
I was thinking steampunk type
Lots of people dressed like this, lots of machinery but it's less like egghead and more like big trains everywhere like maybe the first sea train, giant clocks and just lots of machinery while egghead is just future, still technologically advanced but not as modern advanced

oda has been going with old anime references (gunko is partially inspired by an Anpanman character, look it up it’s uncanny) so I’m guessing a utopian city like something from Astroboy/Mighty Atom. Not like Neo tokyo from akira, more greenery and less packed in like sardines. Resource scarcity was solved, but like vegapunk they flew too close to the sun and that same tech became their downfall because of human greed and fear and hate.
EDIT: Or something like this:
Eftal? Raftel? Maybe I just want everyone to read Nausicaa. But now that we know there were 2 past worlds in one piece's history, I would bet that the great kingdom had access to technology from before the original fall

## Vision of an Ideal Communist Society
In a perfect, idealized communist society, as described through the lens of Marxist theory, the following principles would govern life, economy, and social relations.
### Classless Society
At the core of this vision is a **classless society**, where all individuals are equals. The elimination of classes means that wealth and resources are shared equitably. Here, reality aligns with the Marxist ideal of people working collaboratively for the common good, free from exploitation or oppression.
### Technological Advancement
Advanced technology plays a crucial role in this society. Automation and artificial intelligence significantly reduce the amount of labor needed for mundane tasks, allowing individuals to focus on creative endeavors, education, and personal development. Technology is used not for profit but to enhance social welfare.
### Common Ownership
All means of production, whether factories, farms, or technology, are **collectively owned**. The community decides on the allocation and use of resources. This reflects Marx’s idea that freedom and equality can only flourish when resources are not privately owned but held in common.
### Distribution of Goods
Goods are distributed based on need rather than profit. The principle "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" embodies the society's ethos. Wealth is generated collectively and shared equitably, ensuring that everyone has access to housing, healthcare, and education.
### Abolition of State Power
In this ideal society, the state, as an instrument of oppression, withers away. Governing structures are decentralized, arising organically from the needs and wishes of the people. Direct democratic participation in decision-making ensures that all voices are heard, fostering collective responsibility.
### Cultural Flourishing
The society thrives on cultural development. Art, education, and science are prioritized, with universal access to knowledge and creative expression. People are encouraged to explore their talents and interests, contributing to a rich, diverse culture that celebrates humanity's achievements and creativity.
### Environmental Harmony
Advanced technology and communal ownership facilitate sustainable practices. Resources are managed responsibly, with a focus on ecological balance. This vision reflects the understanding that human progress must be harmonious with nature, safeguarding future generations.
### Social Cooperation
Marx’s vision of communism emphasizes history’s collaborative progress. In this society, individuals work together for the common good, fostering **solidarity** and humane relationships. Competition is replaced by cooperation, where each person contributes to the community’s collective well-being.
---
This idealized society stands as a reflection of Marx's beliefs about human potential and the transformative power of collective action, illustrating a world where freedom, equality, and social justice prevail.
From what I hear, it sounds like you are suspecting they are Star Trek level or something. There's a lot of Star Trek-ish communism ideals involved.
Personally, I'm hoping some irl ancient weapon tech will be explored like Archimedes heat ray or like the Sun Disc in many ancient cultures. I think they also mastered Lineage Factor stuff.
