The Christian Republic of South Antrium (officially De Républîk Krîstîen do Antrîûm Sorét, as written in Alvésin) is a relatively new nation, founded by the right-wing organization of the Antrian Christian Society on May 18, 2006. The members of the ACS were upset about the more agnostic tendencies of the Antrian government, and wanted a place where they could live a Christian lifestyle. Their laws follow the codes of the Bible very closely, with as few modern additions as possible.

They chose a small area of land southwest of Antrium to settle and form a Christian state. Wàrkor believed that the Antrian government was discriminating against Christians, and ignoring their opinions, after Antrian Prime Minister Aranti Dévalera passed bills allowing abortions, same-sex marriage, and stem cell research.

People

Their population was initially 145,000 members of the ACS, out of about 780,000 total. The population is expected to reach 12 million by 2007, as more of Antrium's 200 million Christians migrate to the country.
