===The Philosophy of the Gondals===

From around the creation of the Gondal Empire to the fall of Gondal (September 2020 - September 2021), Gondals were more similar to the FTA than ever. Which should be expected since both originated from the Theno Empire. However, soon the two groups would form a rivalry that would never amend. Gondals grew edgier going for a far more shock value effect with the usage of slurs and gore. They would keep their morals for the most part during this era. They weren't afraid to troll however (take a look at the tragic tale of Mr Yelsew). When Heckknok was introduced to the community following his exile from the FTA following the 10/12/20 nuke, he took it upon himself to reform the community as he saw fit. Which he would do for the next year or so.

​

Heckknok's ideology has been interpreted in various ways. He would often give speeches that would have conflicting ideas with other speeches he has given. His first and most infamous speech goes as follows:

​

''“It's been a very good two or so weeks in this server. I've very much, uh, enjoyed this server and theres some good- been some good moments and stuff, but uh let us take a second and not reflect on the past and really good on the future. We must betray the past that our forefathers went on. No longer must we be compared to the great Theno Empire that once stretched across the land. We must be greater. We must cast off our ideals on once being Theno Empire members and understand what it means to be a Gondal. The Gondal Empire must grow. Recently history has been repeating itself. If history seems to guide our path then we gotta cast off our path now, for a new'' [INAUDIBLE]''. We have to forge our own path as The Gondal Empire and not the Theno Empire's successor. We aren't just a other Irony Server or another edgy satire server. We truly have something greater. Great potential that extends way farther past what the Theno Empire once had. Instead of trying to repeat the past, we should learn from'' [INAUDIBLE] ''and change our future. If all of you understand and heed these words, then we will journey to the unexplored! We will reach the undefined! We will reach Negative Zero. This is the path, the path that would lead us to leading out what it means to be a Gondal. I love this server, thank you, goodbye. El, psy, kongroo.”''

​

Negative Zero in this sense, means to become something greater. El psy kongroo is a saying that comes from the anime Steins;Gate that Heckknok has used at the end of almost all of his speeches. Later on, Heckknok would use the phrase Negative Zero to talk about a state in which you should not care what others do or say.

​

Gondals would continue with Heckknok’s ideology until the fall of Gondal. Two factors that most likely had something to do with this were the return of SAN and Heckknok becoming less involved with the Gondal community.
