Many find Mathenite society bordering on Fascism, though the Mathenites themselves do not see it that way, to them. They socialize, have leisure activities, and engage in other interests, but when there is something to be done, there is something to be done and most will not shirk from their duty. | Many find Mathenite society bordering on Fascism, though the Mathenites themselves do not see it that way, to them.

While the above description is the way many offworlders perceive Mathenites, these traits actually only embody a small fraction of the total Mathenite population. This idealized form of Mathenite society actually comes from the Kard philosopher Ilssen Daei, and while her ideas are popular amongst the 'Officer Class' of the Confederacy and the Colonial authority, most Mathenites societies are somewhat different, even contrary to her ideals. While most Mathenites offworlders will be embody these virtues, this is only because the most common Mathenites anyone is likely to encounter are either CA or Confederacy officials and their families. | |||
