Imperial thinking is characterized by an absolute rationalism that prioritizes reason above all.
Outsiders often criticize this mindset, which maximizes the exclusion of emotional elements, as being cold and inhuman. However, when faced with issues such as the distribution of interests, political strife, and the outcomes of war, everyone behaves pragmatically. The people of Albion are notorious for their frightening realism, Ceres are astute, Lapland are adept at navigating complexities, while the Duchy hardly cares about appearances.
People may not emotionally accept the imperial way of thinking, but no one can deny its theoretical correctness and effectiveness in problem-solving.
Marseille exemplifies this.
Although he has decided to part ways with the empire, whenever faced with a problem, he still instinctively suppresses and clears emotions, viewing issues and himself from an almost detached perspective.
