oh that’s any society where you have ideas or habits that don’t mesh with the confines of society In 1600s America , newly arrived Puritan communities formed with Utopian ideals of the “right way” to run a society, were frequently very strict and lawful, not running from a Christian basis but using “The judicial laws of Moses are binding on Christian Princes ” That is ,they followed Jewish laws but far more strict than any Jewish communities ever did. And so, that would be something I would consider a police state for example.
