The Flag of the Dionysian Erotocracy

Subversive hedonic movement that developed on Dionysos from the 16th and 17th centuries after Tranquility onwards. Emphasised erotic love, desire and pleasure as their guiding principles. Used social experiment, erotogenic neogens, drugs, tantric practices, virches and narrative.

Although the original Erotocracy was relatively short lived and (at first) isolated to a few star systems, and proved not to be workable in its original form, it had a wide-ranging effect on other polities and societies throughout the Terragen sphere.
