Tellgarianism
Tellgarianism is a small, but semi-prominent religion of Tellgaria. Tellgarianism is a form of emperor-worship that began during the reign on the fifth Tellgarian emperor. There are several different sects of Tellgarianism, but a common belief found in all sects is that Drex Tellgar I was a demigod or deity. The primary difference between the sects is their beliefs regarding the descendants of Drex Tellgar I, as some believe that they are also demigods or deities, while others believe that only Drex Tellgar I was the only Tellgar with holy blood.Despite Tellgarianism being the official religion of Tellgaria, the majority of the population practices is either Catholic or Atheist. The government does not force its citizens to publicly adopt Tellgarianism, however. It only encourages them by funding some Tellgarianist non-profits.
