There are a total of $$$$ rites of the Catholic faith, with the Salvian Church and the Tacolic Church being the most prominent. The Church is headed by the Bishop of Deopolis and the Bishop of Intreimor, both of which are considered popes and are equal in ecclesiastical power, who together form the Diarchy.

The popes exercise its authority through papal bulls, dogmas, and other methods.
Despite being in communion together, the Tacolic and Salvian rites differ in many aspects. As a result of centuries of cultural and geographical distance, differences have arisen in terminology, the treatment of saints, relics, and other holy objects, and most notably the difference in the celebration of the Eucharist. The two rites have their own curias and College of Cardinals centered in their respective diocese, with other Catholic rites being part of one College of Cardinals or the other. The way the two popes, curias, and College of Cardinals interact with each other was formalized during numerous councils from the 4th to 15th century.
The Church provides seven sacraments to the faithful, which are necessary if one is to receive God's grace and reach salvation. All of these must be administered by a priest, however special circumstances can excuse this requirement for some sacraments. The Church also teaches that prayer and devotion to the Trinity, the saints, and the Virgin Mary aids the soul and increases the likelihood of earning salvation. Other Church teachings include that of the "common good", also know as "social teaching", which teaches Catholics wurldwide to care for the poor and marginalized.
