'''St. Stephen's Church''', also known as '''Josephinism''' is the independent catholic-apostolic administration of the German Confederation. The use of the pope's authority as a political force was not welcomed by stephanists / josephanists. Examples of this can be shown as the crusades launched against the enemies of the nation in which the pope is located. In addition, the conflicts between Austria ( one of the confederation members ) with the Vatican, and the religious vacuum that emerged in Germany, and the need to seperate themselves from the pope and the political actions of Francia against the subject state of Saxony fueled the formation of this religion. Its roots can be traced back to 2021

Since the conflicts between Austrian leaders and the Vatican, Kaiser Erwinning wanted to seperate the state from pope's influence and had the idea of creating a new religion. Erwinning put ToefteHD in charge. Due to Toefte being busy he couldn't work on the religion as necessary. A year later Erwinning gathered Pastelant, ColtMagnum and Sepl3333 to finalize the newly found religion at 09/01 /2022. After an ultimatum and eventual declaration of war against Saxony, the split between Austria and the Roman Catholic Church grew significantly. Francia, the most pious state outside the pope's own holdings, has just attacked a member state.

Since the conflicts between Austrian leaders and the Vatican, Kaiser Erwinning wanted to seperate the state from pope's influence and had the idea of creating a new religion. Erwinning put ToefteHD in charge. Due to Toefte being busy he couldn't work on the religion and the formation stalled.

Technically, Austria was not in the holy see's administration (though there were Roman-Catholic clergy) far before the St. Stephen's establishment- but Erwinning and other mayors, including a member of the Roman-Catholic Clergy, decided that a formalised announcement must take place to dissolve any affiliation with the Francians and to demote the pope due to his contradictions and supposed misconduct. This finally happened on the 15th of January, 2022 on the German Confederation discord server.

== Early History and Growth ==
The church grew unopposed, and the population unanimously went about their lives like nothing happened. The faith spread to Norfolk with the creation of the Diocese of East-Anglia after Ostend grew to Britain during the [[Accordo Crisis|English Civil War]].
