The Dreherites, Dreheriten in Drambenburgian, are an ethnoreligious group of Drambenburgian origins in Wallenland who trace their roots to the Anabaptist movement. The name Dreherite derives from Jakub Dreher, an excommunicated Verdusian Catholic chaplain from Pilsenburg who greatly preached the second coming of Christ. Dreher had gained a somewhat large following in Pilsenburg and surrounding settlements even after his excommunication until his arrest and execution in 1772. Some of his followers, led by Kornelius Mintz, fled promptly into the Lutharian Alps followed by the remaining followers who were forced out their homes. Despite religious persecution, Dreher and Mintz had preached pacifism. However, non-Deherites still terrorised the Deherites, so by the 1880s, a series of councils were held as to where they could migrate to. After 6 months, Wallenland was chosen. Between 1887 to 1890, a series of migrations were made from Drambenburg to Wallenland and settled on and around the eastern coasts of Élazājápa, Agōmòlām, and Éklopājápa. Dreherites opposed conscription during the World War. Between the 1980s to 2010, kidnappings and killings of Dreherites by the ELN during the Red War (Wallenland) forced the local churches to come together and allow the bearing of weapons, which saw a drastic reduction of these cases and even rescue missions by Dreherites such as the rescue of Anna Felder.
