Good picture. Not quite as orderly as a Nuremberg rally, but the basic form is there. Note that in North Korean and China they go in for similar displays of mass state adherence and compliance, subsuming self to state. I had noticed the teutonicity, but it's interesting to see some of the sources.

In China, their hearts don't seem to be in it so much. It's more compliance than teutonicity. So they'll probably slide back to the old Emperor style - Bo Xilai was heading that way but went Shakespearian [as tends to happen when people seek power]. Korea has gone dynastic. Japan never left it but for now has the USA constitution holding sway with the dynasty more like the British royal system.

There is always a lot of fun to be had when megalomania meets masses of people. The Christian ethic of peer to peer voluntary relationships based on love is thin on the ground.
