The Ecclesiastical Army of Christ is formed around several major Order Militants, where homosexuality is forbidden. There are no protections regarding sexual orientation.

 Lyncanestria Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No No
Criminalised by most Lyncanestrian viceroys during the Cornellian age; then made illegal in 1874 across a unified Lyncanestria with a penalty of forced sterlisation. Forced sterilisation became no longer enforced beginning in the 1990s and the criminalsation of same-sex activity was officially lifted in 2006. The Imperial Constitution grants freedom of speech since 1888; caveats exists, which prevented the open expression of the subject, but this was laid to rest in court 1911 after a book publication. Never illegal. Original discrimination protections were done on the basis of sex, age and race. Protection to classes based on sexual orientation was added in 2006. Civil unions were introduced in 2008 for same-sex couples, which are a legal recognition of same-sex relations, but though hold similar don't hold equal status as actual marriages. The right to adoption for civil unions was granted in 2011. In 2015, the Conservative government retracted civil unions the right of being able to adopt, limiting adoption to married couples thereby excluding same-sex couples from adopting. Sex changed are not considered valid in Lyncanestria, and though citizens may have a surgical sex change abroad their legal sex will remain unchanged.
 Mutul Yes Yes Yes Yes Partial No No
Never illegal. However, a certain social stigma exist, where it is considered "childish" for a man or a woman to keep having homosexuals relationships beyond adolescence. Homosexuals activities are under the jurisdiction of the divinity known as Chin and are freely expressed through his cult, in the same way that heterosexuals activities are under the tutelage of Ix Chak. Never illegal With the recognition of the Cult of Chin, the Divine Throne has put under its protection its priests and practitioners and therefore they are granted the same level of protections as other cults. Two individuals of the same sex cannot marry in the Mutul, as the ritual is performed under the watch of Ix Chel, goddess of fertility and of motherhood. However, the Cult of Chin offer a similar contract, legally recognized by the Divine Throne, that can only be made between a man and a man, or a woman and another woman, and offer the exact same protection as a marriage. An individual can only take one or either of these contracts, not both, as polygamy is illegal. The "Chin marriage" does not allow for the couple to adopt children, which is one of the few differences it has with a "Chel Marriage". gender changes are not regarded as valid. The concept of gender has also yet to reach and influence both the Mutulese society and its body of laws, and as such transexuals are perceived as transvestites, which is generally considered to be the attribute of the Chin Cult's sacred prostitutes.
