The Two Types of Elves in my World.
Context:
> Elves are a very rare species in my world called Omnihome and that they can only be found in one of the two developed countries. That is of The Infernal Anarcho-Imperium & The Asfejian Xenereidhe Republic. And the drastic difference on their culture & behavior is extremely easy to understand. One is progressively moral & the other is morally bankrupt.
> The Infernal Anarcho-Imperium is a progressive-autocratic-anarcho theocratic country built by the Rebellion named "The Infernal Rebellion" who toppled its former fascist vampire government "Holy Sal'Nalis Imperium". Founded & Organized by its Rebel Leader "Iblis" they made their quixotic vision a reality with the help of pure faith & determination where anarchy, dictatorship, communism & theocracy somehow managed to blend together into a democratic country more democratic than any other democratic country. Today it is 1 of the most awesome country on Omnihome where its inhabitants enjoy high quality of life, tourists experience a wonderful nation & refugees welcomed with a shelter.
> Now for its evil twin Asfejian Xenereidhe Republic is the Empire's polar opposite of a nation. It has no official rulers because the government, the corporations, the foreigner agents, the rival conquerors, the criminal syndicates, the opportunists and many more organizations are locked in a perpetual battle royale. It is a country where civilians are constantly catching the collateral damages & destruction of the war. Because there is no order to keep check on the people it became a lawless battleground between those who fight, those who run, those who hide & those who gave up.
> The people know that there is no order but the politicians, lobbyists & lawmakers are stubborn on letting order pass in a dignified way. So they try to keep a semblance of order even if no one will believe that order exist. Its people cope by either believing in a poorly dressed lie, partake in the destruction, pray for an invisible savior or just escape the doomed country. It is slowly spinning its national moral bankruptcy where malevolence & selfishness reigns supreme. Its warlords try to keep the country together but because they hate the idea of working together & the idea on building of at least a tolerable future they are not that different to the people who wage war for no reason other than for the vague belief of restoring Order.
> The elf above it is one of the type of people you may encounter in the Doomed Republic. They gaslight themselves to believe in an immoral ideal because they are desensitized into apathy by the constant death & despair made by the chaos. They had at least killed or wounded someone for self-defense or for greed or for senseless evil etc.
