| - In general, these tenets apply to both major branches of National-Aristocratism, but there are significant differences. In Niflungland, the original NARP still holds to the rule of a Vísir (lit. "Leader"), ordained to rule. At present, however, there is no Vísir, since the appointed successor to Vísir Sigurð Óðinnsson, Siegfried Hohenstaufen, declined the title, prefering to rule as a Marschall - a Regent for the True Vísir, which the NARP believes will reveal himself to the whole of Niflungland through his natural gifts and blessings by the gods. Óðinnsson himself leads a seperate faction of the National-Aristocratic movement based in Hochheim, a small religious enclave in Central Europe. Here he has gathered the highest-ranking members of the Order of the Knights of Othin's Eye, who collectively abandoned Niflungland following a great revelatory experience during one of their rituals. They have since formed the Ordo Fratrum Nominis Sanctis as the religious body for the Nationalaristokratische Union (National-Aristocratic Union, or NAU). Activists and authors supporting the NAU have attempted to form an opposition group in Niflungland, against the wishes of Óðinnsson, now recognised as Pontifex Maximus of Hochheim and Meister of the NAU. In general terms, National-Aristocratism opposes all forms of capitalism, communism, socialism, liberalism, democracy, and internationalism/globalism. It is highly traditionalist, supporting a quasi-feudal structure of society and a monarchial system of rule, opposing monarchy only when it is coupled with liberal political structures. It also embraces a strong sense of cultural nationalism, placing an emphasis on tradition and cultural history, favouring strict control of immigration and maintenance of the traditional ethnic make-up of the nation. There is a strong opposition to the practise of abortion, citing the damage it causes to birth rates and personal responsibility. The Niflungan branch, or "Old Movement", is firmly grounded in Folkish Heathenry, and therefore generally antipathetic toward inclusive religions such as Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam, and actively favours religions tied to a specific ethnic group, such as Shinto, Judaism, Hinduism, Ásatrú, and other forms of traditionalist or re-constructive Ethnic Religions. The Hochheimlish branch, or "Futurist Movement", is on the other hand generally opposed to all forms of tribalism, which distances the highest caste from the realisation of wisdom and truth, meaning that a tribalist and polytheistic religion may be appropriate for lower castes, but for the ruling nobility, the transcendence and oneness of Truth insists that antipathy toward such religions as Buddhism and Christianity makes little sense. The religious policies of Hochheim and Niflungland reflect this difference.
