However, Sargon long-term strategy was sharing power with Elites who sided with him vs the peasants. During Sargon 50 years of rule he built a network of Political-Economic-Military Multi-Ethnic alliances, Elites remained loyal to Sargon because they seeked the backup of the Akkadian Empire to intimidate their local peasants.

Elitism is the feeling or notion that oneself or their group- along with the accompanying ideals and standards- are better than another person's or group's. Contrary to most of the ill-informed definitions given on UD, Elitism is NOT a trait found only in the weak-minded, or those incapable of formulating their own views. It actually is very common to find Elitism in fields such as Physics and other science, since not all scientists conform to the same theories. While it may inhibit progress in some instances, it does keep a rough accepted norm for what is logical to believe.

A noble creature of high stature. It stands seven feet tall and has impressive musculature. Commonly seen on the battlefield, it's rank can be derived from the color of armor it wears. Blue is the common color of the foot soldier and red denotes a command position. There have been sightings of golden elites, some believe they hold the highest command rankings, and a soldier reported to have seen a white elite once, however there were no other reports. It appears that the ranking system is based on the number of kills in combat the elite has had. Truly magnificent soldiers.
