Welcome to Gaia! ::

There are over 3 million religions and systems of faith in the Empire by large Yevonism is the single largest and most powerful religion in the Empire claiming over 97% of the Empire's total population. The other 3% is a varied combination of all the other religions active in the Empire. Religious wars cause religions to ebb and flow from the public eye as new religions rise, old ones fall, and the cycle of strife continues. The religion of Granas was once a legitimate religion as well and the second largest but the Yevonite council of Maesters made sure to declare it heretical and urged the government to actively move against it after the Grananite Pope, Zera Innocentius, turned to dark Chaos worship. Regardless of the religion all religions can be broken down into the following categories:

Old Earth - Religions from Pre-Exodus Earth. All the major religions have been preserved. (Christianity, Islam, Judaism. Etc.)

Xeno - Religions encountered after the ancient Gaian's departure of Earth that is of non Human origin. (Aosi, Urathism. Etc.)

Draconian - Religions created by the Gaians and their modern Draconian descendents. (Yevonism, New Bargethi, Pisonism. Etc.)

Heretical - Religions outlawed in the Empire. There can be many reasons for this political intrigue, Ignorance, legitmate fear regarding a particular system of faith. This class is the most complex of all because it includes not only religions but also systems of faith that are more ideaology then a structured system of belief. The most common entry in this category is Chaos. (Chaos, Church of Granas, Nhuvasurum. Etc.)



Old Earth - 2.00%
Xeno - 0.90%
Draconian - 97.0%
Heretical - 0.10%
