You believe in tradition steeped in cultural customs and norms and celebrate this love for culture by condemning anything foreign or strange from contaminating your beautiful Chinese lifestyle.

You also tend to take advantage of your power over others and see nothing wrong with utilizing the immense control you have over your subjects to support your luxurious whims and posh lifestyle.

You should have been a Persian emperor! You are possibly deeply religious and conservative, with a no-nonsense attitude towards religion, politics and business.
