Catholic Church

Template:ReligioncatholicThe Catholic Church is a church based on the IRL Catholic Church. It seeks to promote religious unity and peace in the world. It is distinguished from the old Christian church by no longer recognizing it as legitimate in its role of ensuring the word of God

History

The beginnings of the church

January 24, 2020, during a crisis meeting in Normandy regarding the faith to adopt. Saint Gregg, Duke of Normandy heard the word of Christ and spread it throughout the rest of Normandy. Decadence was to be punished and the word of God was to be brought into the holy land. Gregg appointed the apostle Thanamos to become the spiritual guide and so Thanamos became the first pope of the Catholic church.

The conversion of northern France and the establishment of a stable religion

Guided by the holy text, Pope Thanamos left to convert all of the cities in the North of France . Brittany joined the true faith and 32Flux became bishop of Brittany. the south of France being more inclined to a pagan belief, conversion remains difficult in this area. A religious conflict almost broke out during the first election of the Chancellors in France. King Barvaux calmed the situation and brought about a semblance of religious unity by temporarily proclaiming freedom of religion.

The heresy of moutonisme

In early February, the Pope of the moutonisme  ( not to be confused with sheepism ) church Alexander IV contacted Pope Thanamos. Proclaiming that moutonisme being the only viable interpretation of Christianity. He immediately took the will to convert France to his religion. Pope Thanamos, referring to the second biblical command, proclaimed that this religion was heresy. There followed a series of religious conflicts. Victoria called to sabotage the Catholic Church by funding a crusade. Which was a total failure.
