History

Formation

The exact origins of Chirondom are completly and utterly unknown. However, it is believed that the first Emperor of Chirondom, John I, was a Catholic upset by his home (Britain) country's treatment of religion, and started a political movement. Scholars believe he and his fellow Catholics left on a vote to Asia sometime in the 18th or 19th century.

While John I kept a good number of records, many Emperor's after him did not, and when a bizarre and fanatical Protestant sect known as the Quali'zar, took power via a coup on Emperor Matthew III, they destroyed most records of times before them. Led by self proclaimed "Holy Dictator George the True Lion I", the Quali'zar outlawed Catholicism and where seen as anti-religious in many ways. Their ways of thinking were that Christ was not God and not Mary's son, but rather a being grown out of the Earth (the Earth being God) who was found by Mary and a Prophet. For sixty-three years, to avoid being targeted by other Catholic nations, they managed to make all nations believe that nothing had changed and that the country was still Catholic. The next year, the truth was revealed, and the Religious Resistance Front, headed by Matthew Vermond, took over the nation and converted it back to Catholicism.

The House of Sanctus

National Anthem

Jerusalem, by William Blake, adapted by Emperor Matthew IV

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon Chirondom's mountains green
And was the holy lamb of God
On Chirondom's pleasant pastures seen

And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among those dark Satanic mills

Bring me my bow of flaming gold
Bring me my arrows of God
Bring me my spears o'clouds unfold
Bring me my chariot of fire

I will not cease from mental fight
Nor shall my sword sleep in hand
'Til we have built Jerusalem
In Chirondom's green and pleasant land!
