Aristocratic Egalitarianism
[T]o say that European Aristocracy is Egalitarian is somewhat of a tautology. An aristocracy requires numbers, and has an interest in creating large numbers in a hierarchy of aristocratic peers. So aristocracy is egalitarian – open to meritocratic entry.

Mankind, Civilization, Culture, Society, Family, Individual
[B]een trying to work on constructing Propertarian definitions for these terms. Ran across this gem, that is very, very close. —“Civilization is fundamentally a cultural infrastructure of information and knowledge that serves survival and continuity. What distinguishes a civilization from a culture is that this infrastructure, having reached a critical level of complexity, becomes autonomous from constituent cities, nations, and empires. In ordinary cultures, the passing of information and knowledge may depend upon imitation or oral communication; in civilizations, this cultural memory, etched into clay or drawn into papyrus, takes on a life of its own”— (Andrew Bosworth, “The Genetics of Civilization: An Empirical Classification of Civilizations Based on Writing Systems, Comparative Civilizations Review, 2003, 49:9).

And I hope that birth is painful.
