Sotirianist culture
Although Sotirianity is officially forbidden in Yi, some churches and cathedrals were allowed to be built under the Floren High Kings. All of them are surrounded by large walls and generally inaccessible for native Yi. The largest such cathedral is the Nostra Senyora del Dolor Perpetu (Yirō name to be added), which has been under construction since 1901; most of the building is finished and usable for services but the final completion is expected to last for several more decades, also because construction is frustrated by local authorities.
