Religious freedom per country
Sorted alphabetically:
- Aqua Anu Religion is protected by the constitution.
- Ariddia legally protects freedom of religious belief, conscience, expression and worship. Although a majority of the population is atheist, a wide variety of religions are present.
- Asyhlo AO Freedom of religion is guaranteed by law, but religious organizations are treated as businesses and taxed. In order to be allowed to collect religious donations, a religious group must register with the national government. Only the Roman Catholic and United Protestant churches have done so; the Buddist and Jainist minorities are thus forbidden from collecting money for religious purposes.
- Granade Turquesa Isla There is no written documents to protect the freedom of religion, with a strong Roman Catholic population, it's almost implied. However some defacto opression occures.
- Kanami Freedom of Religion is perhaps one of the most sacred held constitutional rights in the whole country. This is especially evident with The Mormon Refuge Act of 1849
- The Kiravian Empire allows for total religious freedom on the Imperial level. Colonies, however, may be chartered with an official religion. Religious persecution is outlawed, but some violence persists amongst fundamentalist groups. In some colonies, like Kotavora, religious leaders are granted power in government.
- Kurona Promises the practice of free religion. Unfortunately due to the fact Kurona is 70% wilderness, religious abridgment has played, and the Government has in the past supressed minority religions.
- Maraque’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms specifically grants the populous the freedom to practice any religion they see fit. Even so, only 10% of the population officially subscribes to a religion of any kind. Additionally, it is illegal to publicly display religious symbols or texts, which include a cross in the form of jewelry, clothing in the form of a burqa or turban, and scripture such as the ten commandments.
- In Nasuti the religion is a fundamental appearance of the life of the state and of the citizens. The Official State Religion is Roman Catholic (professed by 99% of citizens): Nasuti is a nation of Christians loyal to the traditions of the Roman Catholic Church and obedient to Supreme Pontiff Pope Benedict XVI. The Nasutian are faithful to the moral and to the teachings of Jesus Christ and of His Church. Other Religions is professed by 1% and to them is guaranteed the freedom of religion and the independence from Catholic Church authority with special law.
- Pa'atua recognises only two religions: indigenous beliefs and Roman Catholicism.
- Plutoni protects freedom of its citizens' many religions.
- San Adriano’s laws recognise and protect religious freedom. A variety of religions are present. Due to the country’s small size, members of different religions share a single “multi-faith prayer building”, or make free use of religious facilities across the border in Uhuh-Topia.
- Snǿĵgẻrd’s laws protect freedom of religion, which has never been a contentious issue in this minuscule country.
- South Lorenya is a mostly atheist nation that allows nearly all religions but requires them to follow the same laws as businesses.
- Swilatia is mostly atheist, although many religions exist in Swilatia. While Swilatian law allows people to follow whatever religion they want, the government is avowedly atheist and anti-religion.
- Tika Vanu is a Catholic theocracy. The ni-Tika Vanu population must comply with theocratic legislation. For example, blasphemy is a legal offence, and various activities are prohibited on Sundays.
- The Phoenix Milita Allows almost any religion to be practiced, as long as taxes are paid. Religion is discouraged in society, but not in any legal capacity.
- Zwangzug’s laws protect religious freedom, but is wholly secular in governmental affairs.
