Why is it important?
Political systems are designed by the cultures they serve, and the
better they represent their populations, the better they're maintained.
This means that organic governments usually fare better than
instituted governments.
NB political tendencies do not correspond to lib/con.
The political tendencies across the map

Liberty - Civil and Political
Political = absolute rights to vote, run for office
Civil = more variable rights, like free speech
Political equality = one person one vote (and nothing else)
