The '''Tyreseian Coptic Church''' or '''Nazarene Copts''', officially the '''Most Holy Coptic Church of the Nazarenes''' or simply '''Coptic Nazarism''' is a {{wp|Christianity|Sarpetic religion}}, operating as a distant offshoot of the [[Alban_Nazarism|Alban church]]. The faith is named after the now-abandoned Hellenic settlement of Kóptos; this town is taught by Church tradition to be its birthplace following the arrival of Saint Euphrosynos of Adrianople. Working from a {{wp|Gnosticism|Gnostic}} interpretation of the {{wp|Bible|Two Treasures}}, Euphrosynos preached a wholly dualistic vision of Yeshua and of the Godhead that quickly took root in the communities of modern-day Tyreseia and other fringes of the Alban world. Diverging from St. Alban's vision of a purely monastic polity, Euphrosynos created a largely presbyterian structure that survives nearly unchanged to this day.


Still a largely Gnostic faith, the Coptic Church adopted elements of [[wikipedia:Esoteric_Christianity|esoterism]] and [[wikipedia:Christian_mysticism|mysticism]] over the centuries as part of a central belief that active pursuit of knowledge, especially through invention and exploration of the cosmos, brings the faithful closer to the Unbegotten and hastens the onset of the End Times. Despite this, Coptic monastic orders and societies exist, though they are not as numerous or as prominent as they were in their heyday.
The '''Republican Guard''' (Latin: ''Cohortēs Reipublicae''), officially the '''Bureau of the Guards of the Republic''' (Latin: ''Officium Cohortēs Reipublicae''), is the {{wp|Gendarmerie|gendarmerie}} of the [[Tyreseia|Workers' Federation of Tyreseia]]. Formed by strongman Azmelqart Sidduni as a personal {{wp|secret police}} force, it quickly morphed after his death into a more judicial force. Today, it performs numerous duties within the country, including domestic intelligence and counterintelligence, crowd control, terrorism response, airport and border security, white-collar crime, and numerous other responsibilities. In addition, the Guard will often be contracted by rural or depopulated areas to serve the function of a local constabulary in exchange for a stipend. While legally an arm of the [[Workers' Navy of Tyreseia]], it is in effect a civilian agency, with most oversight given by the civilian Workers' Commissariat of Justice and Public Safety. Its Intelligence Bureau is the premier civil intelligence agency in the country, and frequently cooperates with both the Office of Naval Intelligence and its intelligence counterparts in neighboring [[Talahara]].  
 
At present, the vast majority of Copts live in [[Tyreseia]], though smaller communities exist across the [[Periclean_world|Periclean basin]] and elsewhere.  
 
==Principal Beliefs==
The Coptic church believes in a proto-heavenly realm known as the [[wikipedia:Pleroma|Pleroma]], ruled over by a supreme being known variously as the [[wikipedia:Monad|Monad]], Godhead, God, or YHWH. The Pleroma, or fullness, serves as the realm of the Monad, as well as of various lesser spiritual entities known as [[wikipedia:Aeon_(Gnosticism)|Aeons]] and [[wikipedia:Archon_(Gnosticism)|Archons.]] In the beginning, the Monad created these Archons, including [[wikipedia:Sophia_(Gnosticism)|Sophia]] and the [[wikipedia:Demiurge|Demiurge]]. In breaking with Alban teachings, Coptic traditions maintain these two as lovers or perhaps even spouses, though modern teachings leave this issue deliberately vague. Regardless, it is taught that the Demiurge and Sophia jointly created all of the physical Creation, with the Demiurge, sometimes ignorant of the Monad and sometimes in defiance of him, creating all that is evil and decadent in the world. Sophia, meanwhile, created all that could be spiritual in the world, creating paths to salvation through all that can be considered good. She had to hide these ideas and concepts behind esoteric rites and knowledge, however, due to her lesser power compared to the Demiurge and out of fear of his power. Some of these truths were left to humanity through the ages in the process described in the Old Testament, but this eventually proved insufficient to save the souls of the trapped from the Demiurge's corruption.
 
Later, as humanity continued its fall into wickedness, Sophia and the Monad are said to have conspired against the Demiurge and sent the Aeon known as [[wikipedia:Jesus|Yeshua-Amitai]] to Earth to spread new doctrines of salvation to the people. It is through St. Alban's and St. Euphrosynos' interpretations of these teachings that the modern Coptic church defines itself and its teachings. The Coptic Church teaches that recognizing the Monad as the true source of divine power in all things is the first step toward salvation. From this, it is all humans' duty to pursue ''gnosis'', or knowledge of the divine and its workings. This can either be done through study in certain worldly scientific fields, such as astronomy, geology and cosmology, or through the ritual consumption and exploration of various mystical and esoteric rites and texts.

Founding stuff
By the time of the 6th century, the Coptic Church had solidified its position in a post-Latin Periclean region, with the Presbyter Princeps establishing a primary see in the city of Tyria while the Rector Princeps established administrative headquarters in the city of Gadir. With the collapse of the hostile, Fabrian Catholic-leaning Latin Empire, the Coptic Church was suddenly free to grow and expand. The 8th century saw the establishment of over a hundred monasteries across modern-day Tyreseia, with many growing to own farm estates and other manorial land holdings. These sprawling religious complexes, rendered self-sufficient by their land deeds and isolated from secular society (and, as it often happened, from each other), quickly began pursuing inventions and advancements in both the mystical and physical realm. This subsequent 500-year boon to science and technology came to be known as the Monastic Golden Age, or more broadly the Coptic Golden Age. This period saw the first major additions to the scientific literature since the end of the Classical Era, as well as the development of the first form of the modern scientific method in 894 CE by the scholar-monk Georgius Mossos. Other key advancements include:
*The spherical astrolabe, essential for medieval timekeeping, astronomy, navigation, etc,
*The first use of a mastectomy to remove a breast tumor,
*The origin of the social sciences like [[sociology|sociology]], [[historiography|historiography]], and [[economics|economics]],
*The sulfur-mercury theory of metals, a key theory of alchemy,
*Mass developments of mathematical theories such as algebra, trigonometry, and geometry,
and many other advancements in the fields of law, philosophy, epistemology, astronomy, physics, geography, biology, healthcare, agriculture, and engineering.
Arts and literature also prospered under this Golden Age, with techniques and styles in fields from architecture to painting developing beyond Latin traditions into new, native schools. The 10th century saw both the work on both the sciences and the arts branch out from the regular clergy into the secular world. In 1095 CE, one of the world's first universities, ''Collegium Bibliothecae Tyriensis'', was established in Tyria through funding by the local Merchant's Guild. The halls of the Collegium were quickly filled by scholars, polymaths, and lecturers from numerous fields and nations, and its shelves were filled with modern and ancient works covering every subject from biology to philosophy. Students from far-flung locations, too, were known to visit the Collegium to study under the masters of their field: records exist of students traveling to study astronomy under polymath Phameas the Boetharch from places as far away as modern-day [[Ghant]] and [[Uluujol]], likely using fellow Collegium scholar Gisco il-Pisari's recent invention of the spherical astrolabe to reach him.


For many of the scholars of the Golden Age, this pursuit of knowledge was inextricably intertwined with the pursuit of Coptic ''gnosis'', and as the Golden Age progressed, the monasteries that had started the age began to turn away from secular pursuits entirely, turning to more esoteric and mystical matters at some time following the Tyrian Collegium's establishment. The end of widespread monastic patronage taxed the momentum of secular scientific progress, and many scholars identify this event as the start of the decline of the Golden Age. Despite this declaration, however, it is known that the monastic orders were still producing esoteric and mystic works at a rapid pace, and disseminating them to the secular clergy and other orders. During this latter period of the age, from the 12th to the 14th century, numerous fleeting and fragmentary schools of Coptic thought formed from the competing abbeys.
===Modern History===


==Organization==
==Branches==
The Coptic Church lacks the ascetism, monastic emphasis, and disdain for ritual practice of the Alban church. The network of churches serve as networks to spread divine and esoteric knowledge to the initiated faithful, as well as centers to encourage worshippers to pursue ''gnosis'' in the correct directions to connect with the Monad through Sophia's works. Monastic orders, though not central to the Coptic Church, still serve important functions.


In keeping with its dualistic cosmology, the Coptic Church maintains a dualistic logistical structure through two co-equal executive heads: the Rector Princeps and Presbyter Princeps. Each administers a different portion of the Church, with the

Most modern controversies surrounding the Coptic Church come from the Rector Princeps' control of the outward flow of finances. For instance, in 2004, numerous protests were lodged with the [[National University of Tyreseia]] following a ₰2.5 million endowment from the Church towards the Department of Religious Studies. Critics denounced this move as an attempt to introduce bias into the Department's curricula, while the Coptic Church defended its actions in a [[wikipedia:Papal_bull|bull]], stating the Rector Princeps was "merely trying to foster debate and discussion, as well as ensuring the presence of the Most Holy Church in debates on Tyreseian religion." Following this, the Tyreseian Supreme Workers' Council severely restricted the rules on religious organizations donating towards secular educational facilities.
==Ranks==
The Republican Guard is made up of numerous enlisted, non-commissioned officer, and commissioned officer ranks. A full table for each is included below.  


In November 2009, a similar scheme to finance the Astronomy department of the Tsabratan University of Science using a [[wikipedia:shell_corporation|shell corporation]] was uncovered by the Tyreseian newspaper ''Res Publica.'' Following an investigation by the [[Tyreseian Republican Guard]], a total of ₰4 million was siezed from the University and the shell company, leading to 40 arrests and the resignation of the then-Rector Princeps, Euphrosynos XI. Such a resignation was unprecedented, as no leader of the Coptic Church had ever left office beyond death or involuntary exile up to that point. The motive for such a brazen violation of the educational donation laws remains unknown to this day, but is frequently theorized to relate back to the Coptic Church's doctrine on pursuing knowledge for the faithful at all costs.

Media coverage of the Tsabratan University of Science payment scandal generated a counter-controversy, especially due to international reporting perceived as ill-informed or malicious. The most publicized incident came after [[Ghant|Ghantish]] satirical newspaper ''The Nibbler'' published an article titled "Questionable headline for clickbait." Similarly, the [[Yisrael|Yisraeli]] late-night show ''Evening Shmooze with Eli Kahane'' featured a repeat segment called "The Coptic Coffers," which ran from late December 2009 to January 2010, featuring numerous skits lampooning and satirizing Church spending and finer points of Coptic theology. The Presbyter Princeps Zephyrinus Victor I issued a [[wikipedia:Papal_bull|bull]] to Yisraeli Channel 20 in January demanding the segment be halted and an on-air apology for "creating inter-religious strife" be aired in its stead. The segment was indeed pulled, but Channel 20 and host Eli Kahane doubled down, airing a new segment called "Letters from the Inquisition" in protest. This segment featured the reading and belittling of the bull itself, as well as ridiculing other letters sent in by the Coptic faithful in protest of the show. This segment ran from February to April 2010, when it was abruptly halted after it was revealed that some of the letters were unknowingly sent in by [[wikipedia:Internet_troll|trolls]] and improperly screened.

The Republican Guard (Latin: Cohortēs Reipublicae), officially the Bureau of the Guards of the Republic (Latin: Officium Cohortēs Reipublicae), is the gendarmerie of the Workers' Federation of Tyreseia. Formed by strongman Azmelqart Sidduni as a personal secret police force, it quickly morphed after his death into a more judicial force. Today, it performs numerous duties within the country, including domestic intelligence and counterintelligence, crowd control, terrorism response, airport and border security, white-collar crime, and numerous other responsibilities. In addition, the Guard will often be contracted by rural or depopulated areas to serve the function of a local constabulary in exchange for a stipend. While legally an arm of the Workers' Navy of Tyreseia, it is in effect a civilian agency, with most oversight given by the civilian Workers' Commissariat of Justice and Public Safety. Its Intelligence Bureau is the premier civil intelligence agency in the country, and frequently cooperates with both the Office of Naval Intelligence and its intelligence counterparts in neighboring Talahara.
