Now we can think of Russia - a historically sluggish empire with strength more in bluff and pretensions than in reality, it has always displayed inherent feudal tendencies. A huge landscape governed always with a supreme lack of efficiency and sensibilities, it has withstood the test of time, because of some strange codes in its language software.

In the erstwhile Soviet Union, which was the natural growth of the Russian Empire, with its multitude of States and Nationalities, there were a number of languages. Some from the Asian side and some from the European side. The European language of Russian was in supremacy. However being in close contact with the Asian languages, which are generally highly feudal in nature, much feudalism may have been superimposed on the Russian language, even if it otherwise did not have any. Life in such a software program would never have given the solace from feudalism, even when the so-called force of liberation, that is, Communism came into power.

The feudal elements in the language could have easily aided the party officials and the bureaucracy to turn their stations into fiefdoms. If the languages do have this character, then no amount of ‘Perestroika*‘ or Glasnost’* would liberalise the Soviets. The liberalism could only allow the more prominent elements in society to build up capitalistic organisations, which at heart would be just a modern manifestation of feudalism. In other words, the old communist leaders and officials would end up as owners and proprietors of gigantic commercial organisations, which the English West may imagine to be Capitalistic, but in reality would just feudal organisations.

Another connected feature of the stifling atmosphere of a feudal language is that it can both create dissension, and at the same time hold the mutually antipathetic components together in a web of dynamic, mutually destructive unity. Everyone holds on to the system, as it is the only thing, which gives them an identity. However when one fine morning, when the system fails, then forces of dissension would become overwhelmingly powerful and individual components would move in tangential directions.

The statements that I have now made in the last paragraph need much refinement and development and that can be done only in another area. So, the assertions that I have made may just stand alone, for the moment, awaiting more detailed interpretation.

Feudal languages make individuals live in a strange stifling atmosphere. A feeling and an air of heavy subjugation, which individuals who have always lived in perfect English conditions, would find difficult to sense and perceive. Communism may appear as a flawless and fitting answer and solution for this affliction. However as long as the language is feudal, Communism cannot help. For, the Communist leaders and other officials would just replace the ancient feudal lords, and manoeuvre themselves into the senior, significant positions in the language hierarchy. And the show will go on, with possibly more dogmatic, ideological justification.
