The Real Armenia is the Republic of Armenia, with an internationally recognized area of 29,743 square kilometers.
The vision of the progress and development of the Republic of Armenia, based on the ideology of the Real Armenia, is multi-layered and must be reflected in all spheres of state and public life.
1.The motherland is the state, if you love your motherland, strengthen your state – The motherland is one of the most cherished concepts of the linguistic determinism of Armenians. But it does not relate to the system of rights and obligations, and has geographical perception options. This ideology of Real Armenia identifies the motherland with the internationally recognized state, the Republic of Armenia, and patriotism with the interests of that state, the system of rights and obligations defined in it. For the development of this model of patriotism, it is essential that the people, the citizen perceive themselves not only as the founder of the state, but also as the source of the legal order established in the state, perceive the constitutional order established in the state as a national consensus of coexistence achieved with their own participation. The adoption of the new Constitution through a national referendum is essential for this system, since all previous referendums held to adopt the current Constitution have a serious lack of legitimacy, at least in public perception. The strategic goal of adopting the new Constitution is the transition from the residual system of functioning of a stateless nation to a system of functioning of state-building people.
2. As the soul becomes a person with the body, so the nation becomes people through the state - The concepts of nation and people are often equalized. But from a political point of view, they differ significantly, continuing to be interconnected with each other. A nation, accordingly, is a collectivity with ethnic commonality, which is not endowed with general political legal capacity, while people is a collectivity endowed with political legal capacity, which has general citizenship, that is, the people are the state-forming institution, the constitutive, the source of power and the supreme bearer of power. The Armenian people are the state-forming part of the Armenian nation. The Armenian people are the axis of the people of Armenia. The citizens of the Republic of Armenia, which also includes representatives of other nations, are part of the people of Armenia.
3. Here is the state, here is the bread, here is the motherland, here is your future - the people create the state as a tool for prosperity. The state is the destination of the proverb “stay where there is bread” that periodically storms the Armenian reality, that is, the place where there is bread, because it is the tool with which bread, that is, prosperity is created, and therefore, it is there that one should stay. The state is the product of the people’s search for prosperity, and prosperity is a necessary condition for achieving happiness. This perception has been alien to our reality, because for centuries the concepts of motherland, state, and bread have been separated from each other. Bread was earned in states created by others and/or located in other places, reserving for the motherland the function of a place of conservation of isolated but cherished traditions and values, making the wanderings between motherland, state, and bread into a key component of the socio-psychology of Armenians. Equalising of the concepts of bread, motherland, state replaces the concept of “emigrating” from problems, that is, solving the bread problem elsewhere, with the concept of confronting problems and solving them in one’s own state and with one’s own state. In this process, the definition of the standard of well-being (security, freedom, justice, dayly life, happiness), the provision of the necessary conditions for its implementation, the adoption of the strategy, and the acknowledgment of the state as a tool for implementing the strategy and the area of implementation of the specified standard are of essential importance. In this context, it is important to note that the state is the best tool for a citizen and the people to decide their own fate, to predetermine their destiny, and the best life for a person is possible only in their own state.
4. Get rich and make rich – Getting rich and making rich are key incentives for establishing public welfare, and this incentive should be placed not in the logic of a race for money, but in the logic of a competition to create results, developing the individual and the state. Living well should become the rule within the logic of a set standard of welfare and with the understanding that the only tool for living well is to work hard, earn a lot, spend a lot. This is true for both the individual and the state, and both the state and the individual must also be bound by a mutual desire to enrich each other, the society, groups, and individuals must be united by a mutual desire to enrich each other, also because having the proper environment is the most important guarantee of success, from which it follows that the state logic of getting rich and making rich is possible only in an environment of legality, equality of all before the law, justice, and creativity. If working hard in such an environment does not bring much earnings, then the work is not productive. If spending a lot does not lead to well-being, then the expenditure (investment) is not productive. In the mentioned context, it is essential to change the public and individual attitude towards money, in the sense of putting it outside the logic of evil and good and perceiving it as a tool for solving problems and evaluating legitimate work and activity.
5. A person is the highest value. This means that taking care of the primary needs of the person is a priority - The inclusion of talk about bread, money, wealth, and living well in political ideology is unusual for our political life and can be assessed as a devaluation of “high politics”. “Policies based on high values”, however, sometimes lose sight of the highest of values – the person, his daily vital needs, his natural desire to live and enjoy life. The peculiarity of this ideology is the practical approach of putting a person and his needs at the center, with the understanding that the person himself must first of all take care of his needs, while state policies should be aimed at providing a person with education, skills, abilities, knowledge necessary for that, developing a person's talent and creating the necessary opportunities and environment for its realization. Spiritual and cultural values are also viewed from this perspective. It's not so that these values have a heavenly significance, but they are an integral part of human vital needs, because a person has both material, everyday, and spiritual-cultural needs, and values are valuable to the extent that they are necessary to motivate a person, to make him harmonious, to ensure happiness. In this sense, the national and state identity of a person, national and state values, with some of which a person has direct interaction, the other part exists for a person as a consciousness, as a belief, are important. The ideology of Real Armenia is based on the national values of the Armenian people.
