Centralism is a non-quadrant ideology that advocates for a Unitary State. A unitary state is a state in which political power is held by a single central government, instead of it being spread amongst states, provinces, federations, or the like. Despite wanting centralized power, it is not inherently 
authoritarian, as one can argue a libertarian central government, or even 
an authoritarian decentral government. It can be seen as the opposite of 
Federalism and 
Confederalism.

Relationships
Centralized
Jacobinism - Thanks for removing any leftover feudalism in France.
Absolute Monarchism - Thanks to your bureaucracy, France became centralized. Long live the king!
Fascism - All within one state, you say?
Nazism - Coordinating the economy and all of society into the state? Holy based...
Francoism - One based Spaniard. Pity your successors reverted your policies on those insolent 
Basques and 
Catalonians.
Saddamism - I like how you centralised Iraq. It's a pity that damn neocucks overthrew you.
Xi Jinping Thought - You kept the damn autonomous zones, but you cracked down on them and act like your predecessors so you're basically perfect.
Semi-Autonomous
Autarchy - Every man a state... What? But at least individual sovereignty ensures unitarity for the individual himself.
Marxism-Leninism - You might've made the USSR federal, but I'll give you a pass for still making it so centralized. And I'm glad you didn't make any of your satellite states federal too, well except for Czechoslovakia.
Trumpism - 
Agenda 47 seems interesting, but you don't wanna go full unitary because of you don't want to piss your more 
libertarian followers.
Nordic Model - I love most of your domestic policies, but I don't like how Denmark gives autonomy to Greenland and Faroe Islands, and that 3/5 of you joined the 
European Union.
Maoism and 
Dengism - Extremely based Chinese ideologies. But get rid of the autonomous regions.
Patchwork - On one hand, you are sometimes a disgusting supporter of decentralization. On the other, independent city-states are too small to have any autonomy in the first place.
Zionism - I like the fact you made Israel centralized and won't give autonomy to 
Palestinians but your allies with 
Federal Nations .
Decentralized
Federalism - Decentralization will only create instability and factionalism.
Confederalism - States' rights my ass. No states, no rights.
World Federalism - The worst child of Federalism that is on a global scale. Stop saying I am a bad form of government!
-
We can't govern the whole planet as a unitary state.
Feudalism - The 
HRE and the 
Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth are but two outstanding examples of why decentralization is stupid!
Helvetic Model - Pathetic. Can't even decide on anything without a referendum! Liechtenstein is a tad bit better though.
European Federalism - Why the hell was it decided that the EU should be federal? To make matters worse, states like German are federations within federations.
Bismarckism - Why did you have to make the German Empire federal, you jerk?!
Yeltsinism - Why did you continue to keep Russia federal even after the USSR was dissolved?
Adenauerism - And why did you have to go back to federalism when WW2 ended?
Neoconservatism - You protect the United States and the European Union and you also made Iraq federal.Oh, wait, the USSR was federal too, same with modern Russia. So, federalist infighting?
Titoism - Haha, Yugoslav Wars go brrrrr. You should've taken a cue from King Alexander I about unifying and integrating the country.
- Well, that only resulted in him getting shot and the country breaking up during the next war. At least my setup lasted for much longer than the Kingdom did.
Democratic Confederalism - You are stupid and pathetic, 
Turkey and 
Syria will rise!
American Model - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THE WORLD BIGGEST SUPERPOWAH CANNOT BE A FEDERAL STATE 
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blairism - Did you know "devolution" also means "a step back", which is exactly what you did?
Anarchism - Your silly and will never work in practice.
Separatism - Instability is the natural consequence of Federalism.
