Ministry of Faith

True Path Faith

The 2019 census had between 80 to 85% of the citizens identified as followers of the True Path faith.

Of Christianity, the main branches formally recognised by the Ministry of Faith are Catholicism, Protestantism, Eastern Orthodox and Mormonism which unified into a syncretism blend to create the True Path Faith and the Mega Worship Centres.

However there are a number of Catholic and Protestant churches operating under their own banner not affiliated with the True Path.


Paganism

Paganism is the second major faith in the Confederate Empire of West Phoenicia,

The city-states of Baal Territory, Ptolemaic Haven, Mythologica, Yule Island, Druidia, New Egypt, Bast County, Selene Valley, New Rome, Polytheisa Heaven and Helios Region boasts the largest numbers of pagan adherents where the old pagan ways flourish.

Asherah Grove, the capital city of Baal Territory holds the residence of High Priestess Margie Brixton; the head of the pagan faiths which united to form a United Pagan Council representing all recognised pagan and wiccan faiths.

These city-states are lined with temples dedicated to a pantheon of gods, goddesses and animal deities deemed for suitable worship by the United Pagan council. There are countless shops and markets dedicated to witchcraft, charms, potions, mediums, temple prostitutes and fortune tellers which help boost the West Phoenician economy.

Other Faiths

  • Judaism has a strong number of adherents and synagogues in the City-states of Herodian Valley and New Egypt
  • Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism and Shintoism have a number of temples and adherents in Polytheisa Heaven, Titania and the Scarlett Orient Isles.
  • Hinduism, Jainism and Sikhism have small communities of followers and a scattering of worship centres in Deception Bay, Acapella and Fort Blackfoot.
