Silvanias: Religion - jass - 06-21-2017
Silvanias Religion
The recognized religions of Silvanias are Irlasi, Ostrid, and Akhadism, but the most widely used and official religion of Silvanias is Irlasi despite only 23% of its citizens ethnically identifying as Irlasi.
There are twelve main gods which make up the Irlasi religion. Their names are Arkalos, Seamus, Ofsprea, Terrameda, Rathmena, Marius, Amori, Acroles, Afrimisia, Haemesh, Trevor, and Dimetri. Most temples throughout Silvanias contain twelve shrines with symbols of each particular god or goddess in order to differentiate them.
The largest temple dedicated to the gods resides in Hirlas, as that city is primarily made up of Irlasins (those who are both Irlasi religiously and ethnically). Those who only practice Irlasi identify as Silvanians, Silestrians, or Irlasi normally.
The religion itself is based off of an ancient pre-Angiris polytheistic religion. It has been known to have been derived from the old Praetoss culture of Aiur, one of the First Three Cities before the Angirisian Empire.
The names of the gods changed after the Galasians attacked Aiur. They then changed again when the new Angirisian Empire formed. The religion then diverged after the Civil War when Silvanias split from Angiris. It was then that a new name for the religion was made, that name being Irlasi in order differentiate itself from the old Angirisian religion. The religion grew from being a miniscule faith in Angiris to being the official religion of Silvanias as time went on.
Most of this religion is based on myth, but for the devout Irlasi, the mythology instills a sense of morality and hope within them, as with most religions and faiths. The main text is called the Tolmeus. According to the foreword, the book was written by Arkalos’ scribe, Eclamesus, a mortal demigod son of Rathmena who wrote down the stories which the gods had told him.
The twelve gods of the newest form of the religion are as such:
Arkalos (Ar-kay-lohs): the ruler of the gods, god of the weather.
Seamus (say-ah-mis): god of the sea, rivers, lakes, etc.
Ofsprea (off-spray-ah): goddess of marriage, fertility and family
Terrameda (tare-ah-meed-ah): goddess of agriculture
Rathmena (rahth-meen-ah): goddess of law, knowledge, and war (strategy)
Marius (mah-ree-is): god of war (battle), the sword, and archery
Amori (ah-mer-ee): goddess of love, beauty, and pleasure
Acroles (ah-croh-lees): god of the sun, the desert, and music
Afrimisia (ah-frih-mee-shah): goddess of the moon, the forest, and writing
Haemesh (heh-mesh): god of fire, stone, and blacksmithing
Trevor (treh-ver): god of thieves, athletes, and trade
Dimetri (dih-mee-tree): god of ecstasy, celebration, and alcohol

Democratic Party (DP)

- A woman has the right to choose, but in the third trimester, it is recommended not to terminate. The Democratic Party will neither increase nor decrease government funding to hospitals which support abortions, but it will express its dissenting opinion on third trimester abortions, except in cases where the mother’s life is at risk, which is why most third trimester abortions happen.

- LGBTQ
- Any LGBTQ citizen deserves the same rights as anyone else. That is the main standpoint. They deserve the right to marry, the right to work, and the right to serve in the armed forces like anyone else. Anyone who is a citizen gets the same right.
- Transgender citizens have the right to get the procedures they need. The Democratic Party believes that healthcare has the obligation to provide transgender citizens coverage for said procedures, but it also believes that the hospitals are not obligated to perform the operations, even if covered.
- The right to refuse service is an important right. The Democratic Party expresses disdain for those who refuse to give service to LGBTQ citizens, but still believes that the business owners have the right to do so.

- The Democratic Party is in favor of marijuana legalization. Since it already legal, there is no need to change it back. Like the NSP, it will fund research into the effects and benefits of the legalization of psychedelic mushrooms and peyote, to see if they are something worth legalizing or if they should stay illegal.

Libertarian Party (LP)

- Civil Rights
- Abortion
- A woman has the right to choose at any moment, but the government does not need to fund the facilities where she gets an abortion. The government will not fund anything relating to abortions under Libertarian rule, but women have the full liberty to do whatever they want with their bodies.

- LGBTQ
- The government should stay out of home affairs, meaning that people should be able to marry whoever they so please. This issue does not concern government, and under Libertarian rule, there will be no government intervention. As such, it will be illegal for courts to not issue marriage licenses because that would be government intervening in the home. But the LP would like to get rid of marriage licenses altogether.
- Transgenders can be whoever they want to be. It is not up to the government to decide who or what they can and can’t be. That being said, the government will not intervene on anyone who refuses to give transgender citizens treatment. Nor will it intervene on private healthcare companies who don’t cover transgender treatment.
- As for the right to refuse service, it is a right, so it will not be infringed upon. The government will not intervene on the right to refuse service, nor will the courts. If the business denies service to LGBTQ citizens, it does not deserve their patronage and money. And that is the business’s choice.

- Drugs
- All drugs will be legalized. The government shouldn’t have to “save” a person from themselves with these ludicrous laws. A person should have the common sense to stay away from heroin, and if they don’t, early death to them. The Libertarian Party believes that relaxing drug laws will not affect drug usage at all. It will just get a bunch of people out of prison and will open up a lot of new economic opportunities.

The sellers can decide whether or not they want to do background checks on their customers. There shall be no regulation in the arms manufacturing business either, besides restrictions on releasing cruel and unusual weapons - definition to be discussed later.

- The government should also butt out of healthcare. Underneath the Libertarian Party, healthcare will be privatized again. Realizing that some cannot afford healthcare, however, the government shall offer a cheaper, basic plan funded entirely by those who purchase it, and only to those who qualify.

- Additional
- Do away with the process of marriage entirely. No marriage licenses at all, no special benefits. If people want to be married, that is their decision. They can have a ceremony. The government doesn’t have to get involved.
- The idea of separation of church and state will be brought back. There are currently subsidies going to Irlasi, Ostrid, and Akhadic establishments to encourage people to get their spirituality back. The subsidies are unnecessary and need to be scaled back.
- The freedom of speech is very important. No speech should be censored. “Hate” speech has been censored for far too long. Someone once said, “Your liberty to swing your fist ends at the other man’s nose,” and that is something the LP will uphold.

- Foreign Policy
- No foreign policy. Silvanias will only attack when attacked and will reach out when reached out to, but other than that, it will not be looking for alliances under LP rule. Its internal affairs are more important. As for border security, it’s not a main concern for the LP.

- The WCP recognizes the importance of the environment. However, it is not a top priority. That being said, it does not believe that climate change is caused by humanity. Therefore, funding into environmental research shall be cut back significantly, and will be returned to the people in the form of a tax break and possible tax returns.

- Strong alliances are important to MU!’s leader. He plans to reach out to nearby countries especially, and see if they are interested in alliances. He also plans to increase arms manufacturing. He feels like underneath the current government, Silvanias’ national security is very much at risk, especially with the loose border security.
