Regio dela Verde (Classical Verdean: Reign of the Jade Queen) is a religion native to the Verdean Archipelago, founded by a group of Sacrementist clergy looking to reform their original faith, centralizing divine power into fewer deities. Over time, the beliefs of the Regio heresy diverged significantly enough that the heresy had become radically different from the parent faith. Valerius d'Léon and the heretical clergy on Isla Verde near Corazón del Río, declared the Septonate Brotherhood and cut all ties to Sacramentist believers, and established formally a separate Regio faith in AI 1330.
Over the multiple thousands of years of the Verdean hundreds of various sects, churches, and heresies split off of official Septonate doctrine, however sects can generally be divided into six broad categories, some of which are historical, and some extremely modern, with breakdowns being tied to traditionalism versus modernism, and snycretic and anti-syncretic Regio faith. Generally however, core Verdean nations tend to be anti-syncretic whereas diaspora communities, Verdean minorities overseas, and non-Verdean practitioners being more Syncretic in outlook.
History and Spread
Foundation
The Regio faith was originally the result of a centralist heresy of Sacramentalist religion established in the Archipelago roughly four thousand years ago. After the end of the dark age, Sacramentist teachings became formally established with a priesthood and organized church which slowly spread from Isla Lapis to the rest of the Archipelago. Over the course of Sacramento's spread, clerical disagreements over the nature of the gods resulted in sectarian divisions. A group of priests on Isla Verde formed a creed based around seven central deities as patrons of each of the Verdean Islands, as opposed to the hundreds of deities of more traditional Sacramentist sects.
The Septevate sect of Sacramentism grew more powerful on Isla Verde throughout the second millennium AI, however, Traditional Sacramentist aggressively worked to limit power of the Septevate sect. While initially liturgical and peaceful in nature, religious conflicts would break out into physical violence and persecution as the traditionalists engaged in mass executions of the Septevans and Septevans attacking the temples of the traditionalists. In AI 1330, conflicts would come to a head when a group of Septevate heretics led by Valerius d'Léon would in a religious conclave establish the tenets of the Regio faith, proclaiming the divine rulership of the Jade Deity and founding Regio de Verde.
