The Holy Land was first established in the form of the Catholic Theocracy of Israel (Latin: ''Theocratia Catholica Israelis''). The Theocracy of Israel was founded as a town by Quarox, who was then a priest, on the 26th of March 2023. The reason for the foundation of this theocracy was a visit he made to Jerusalem: disappointed by the infidelity and unbelief that the young priest had to witness during his pilgrimage, he considered himself responsible to take action for the sake of his faith. In order to bring the government of Israel back to sanity, the cleric made an attempt to contact them by letter, explaining the issue and, despite the unfavorable imbalance of power between the insignificant priest and the fully grown nation in the Middle East, did not hesitate to state a warning about consequences if the government would not stop dishonoring the Holy Land. After the attempt to contact failed and the priest was mocked by propaganda posters additionally displayed in the streets of Jerusalem, Quarox appealed to the Holy See with a letter requesting authorization to establish the Catholic Theocracy of Israel in order to purify the Holy Land from the heresies he witnessed. Clement XV, Pope of that time, approved the establishment and at the same time elevated him to the episcopate on the 13th of March 2023. From that moment on, Quarox took over the ecclesiastical supervision over the Diocese of Israel as bishop. Due to the growth of this diocese, Pope Clement XV elevated it to the rank of Archdiocese of Jerusalem on the 6th of May 2023. The establishment of the Theocracy was solemnly promulgated in the ''Declaration of the Establishment of the Catholic Theocracy of Israel''. | The Holy Land was first established in the form of the Catholic Theocracy of Israel (Latin: ''Theocratia Catholica Israelis'').

An excerpt from the document states: | An excerpt from the document states: <small>"[...] ''In the context of their refusal to our request, to remove the propaganda of sodomy as well as the blasphemous visual amusements about Jesus Christ from their territory, we are compelled by our conscience to take fundamental and total countermeasures. Not only that they did not show any understanding for our accommodating request, much more these enemies of God intensified their sodomite propaganda and informed us about it, in a very mocking manner. Our littleness can bear much mockery for the sake of the one, who was humiliated, dishonored and crucified for our sake, but if we should see that at least a single heretic dares to harm even one hair of our beloved Lord, we are ready to raise against legions at the cost of our blood'' [...]"</small> | ||

A few weeks after the establishment of the Theocracy, the government of the Holy Land decided to undertake a search for a neighboring nation to temporarily enter into a mutually beneficial unity. On the basis of successful diplomacy, the Theocracy chose in favor of joining the nation of Kushan. Although the initial cooperation proved to be fruitful and the Archdiocese of Jerusalem was able to christianize Kushan to the extent that it adopted Christianity as its official religion, the change of government in Kushan had a number of negative aspects. Through inappropriate and unethical behavior in the political context of the Middle East, Kushan made itself locally quite unpopular. This soon became an obstacle for the Archdiocese of Jerusalem regarding the evangelization of other neighboring nations. Third parties began to associate the Archdiocese of Jerusalem with Kushan and its actions, resulting in nations such as Egypt and Armenia rejecting evangelization attempts. In addition, it was revealed that Kushan's government had taken pleasure by publicly insulting His Holiness. These and other circumstances led the Holy See to make use of its authority in the following way: On the 3rd of July 2023, Pope Clement XV announced a decree regarding the independence of the Theocracy of Israel. | A few weeks after the establishment of the Theocracy, the government of the Holy Land decided to undertake a search for a neighboring nation to temporarily enter into a mutually beneficial unity.
