		+	== History ==
		+	The '''Faith in the Great Creator''' has it's origins as a small Jewish cult, whose beliefs have spread rapidly and hit the Purple Sector, thousand years ago. From time to time, many rulers dropped their old Pagan faith and adapted the Faith if the Great Creator as their new state religion. Several discrepancies have led to quarrels among the believers and led to a split and formation into two groups: The '''Church of the Great Creator''' in the Western territories of the Sector and the '''Righteous Churches''' to the East.
		+
		+	The Righteous Churches fell first, with the rise of Communism and the formation of the USSSR, whose leadership has a strong animosity against religious organizations. Thus, the Church of the Great Creator was soon disbanded by force, church property was confiscated and believers were persecuted.
		+
		+	Several priest, among them Tadeusz Aureliusz, managed to maintain several communities in secrecy and thus keeping the Faith in the Great Creator alive. It was one of the greatest factors, that helped the population of several Communist puppet states to regain hope and to stand up against their oppressors. After the successful liberation of Poland and Magyar, the Church has been reestablished as an institution with Aureliusz as it's first High Priest, after the fall.
		+
		+	== Klerikal Hierarchy ==
		+	[[File:Klergy.png‎\|200px\|thumb\|right\|Robes of klerikal personnel]]
		+	*'''Servant:''' Lowest rank in the Hierarchy. Servants mostly assist priests during services.
		+	*'''Priest:''' Priests hold services and are responsible for governing single communities.
		+	*'''Warden:''' Wardens govern whole conglomerates of communities and have to take on the responsibility for the actions within them.
		+	*'''Grand Warden:''' Grand Wardens make sure, that a group of Wardens fulfils their duties, without directly controlling them.
		+	*'''High Priest of the Exalted Council:''' Wardens, that have been called to the Exalted Council, have the chance of aiding the High Priest of the Church in his decisions or even becoming the High Priest of the Church, themselves.
		+	*'''High Priest of the Church:''' Highest rank in the Hierarchy. The High Priest of the Church has almost full control of the church personnel and can constitute several core principles of the Church. He upholds his position until he dies or abdicates.
		+	*'''Order Chaplain:''' Technically not a part of the Klerikal Hierarchy, the Order Chaplains are still an essential part of knightly orders, for they keep up their moral on the battlefield and protect holy relics of these orders.
		+
		+	== Core Principles ==
		+	*'''Life:''' ''Life is sacred and every life form has it's own purpose.''
		+	*'''Modesty:''' ''Live humble and never get too full of yourself.''
		+	*'''Valour:''' ''Face the problem right in the eye.''
		+	*'''Community:''' ''Stand together, even during the hardest times.''
