Who are we?

We are the Society for the formation of the Second British Empire. We are a growing group of young people from across the Western World who share a sense that something essential has been lost in the modern world, not wealth or technology, but direction, confidence, and civilisational ambition. We believe history did not end, that our current managed decline is not our destiny, and that our civilisation still has a future worth building rather than merely managing.

What unites us is a shared outlook shaped by three core philosophies. Our philosophy of Anglo-Civilisationalism, which recognises European civilisation, and especially the Anglo tradition, as the highest expression of ordered society yet achieved, one that produced law, continuity, exploration, and the ability to build across centuries. Monarcho-Celestialism, which provides direction, placing continuity, hierarchy, and long memory at the centre of governance and treating humanity’s future among the stars as a serious civilisational goal rather than a novelty. And Imperial Restorationism, which grounds this vision in material reality, arguing that large ambitions require infrastructure, resources, settlement, and organisation at scale, not fragmentation or apology.

We are not a political party or a protest movement. We are building a long-term civilisational project, and intend to reshape the Western World in our image. Our aim is to restore confidence, recover inheritance, and lay the foundations for a future that extends beyond the present generation and beyond Earth itself. We believe this can only be achieved through patience, discipline, and collective effort, beginning with people willing to think seriously about who we are and where we are going. The dream of the Second Empire begins with individuals who refuse to accept managed decline and choose instead to take part in shaping what comes next.
