Description[?]:
| Kirlawan cultural census of 2700. Ethnicity: White North Artanian: 57% (-3%) Celtic: 17% (nc) Dundorfian: 16% (nc) Istalian: 5% (+5%) Makonian: 1% (-1%) (primarily Hutori) Kerissian: 1% (nc) Mixed/Other: 3% (-1%) (now includes non-Istalian Majatran) Primary Language: English: 72% (-3%) Dundorfian: 12% (-1%) Irish: 6% (nc) Welsh: 5% (-1%) Italian: 5% (+5%) Religion: Hosians: total 51% (+2%) >>> Bishopal: 33% (-2%) >>> Universal: total 17% (+5%) >>> >>> Selucian: 9% (+4%) >>> >>> Veritan / Almighty Path: 2% (nc) >>> >>> Terran: 1% (-1%) >>> >>> Other Universal: 5% (+2%) >>> Other non-Universal, non-Bishopal Hosian: 1% (-1%) Ehudism: 4% (-1%) Daenism: 3% (nc) Pagan: 6% (+2%) (nature worship, etc.) Other: 3% (nc) (now includes Abadi) No Religion: 33% (-3%) Both Abadi religion, and Majatran ethnicity other than Istalian, have fallen below 1%, so have been merged into "other" in their respective categories. Over the past fifty years, upheavals in three countries in particular have led to waves of immigration to Kirlawa. First, neighboring Aloria was devastated by nuclear attacks near the beginning of this half-century. Most of the Alorian refugees who had fled over the border to our nation, have since gone home to try to clean up and rebuild, although some have stayed. Second, Beiteynu was invaded by crusaders, but they pulled back and departed just before the damage that they inflicted became permanent. Around 2685 and lasting almost a decade, Kirlawa was host to many Ehudis from Beiteynu; but now that their nation is securely back under Ehudi control, most (plus more) have returned, to strengthen it against possible future trouble. Third, Istalia was destroyed by alien aggressors; and unlike the first two, the usurpers are sadly still ruling there. :( Accordingly, of the recent refugees who have remained in Kirlawa, most are Istalian. http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=235653 ============ Revised 30 April 2012, to comply with the new names for the religions. http://forum.particracy.net/viewtopic.php?p=37476#p37476 "Hosians" = Christians. "Luthorian" = Protestant. (specifically Lutheran, but Kirlawa's Protestantism came from Luthori anyway) "Bishopal" = Catholics (the page says to use "Patriarchal", but I feel that that name very strongly connotes Orthodox, not Catholic.) "Selucian" = Selucian Catholic. "Veritan" = Veritan Catholic. "Terran" = Terran Catholic. "Ehudism" = Judaism. "Abadi" = a branch of Islam. "Deanism" = Buddhism. I am assuming that using the names of Particracy locations (Luthori, Selucia, Veritas, Terra) is still OK. ============ Revised and sent to vote 31 August 2015, for archiving. Fixed the spelling of "Daenism" and of "Kerissian". "Bishopal" now refers to Anglican or Episcopalian, not Catholic; in accordance with http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=346816 I've re-renamed our Catholics to "Universal", to hopefully avoid misunderstandings regarding the term "Bishopal". They're currently (3900) the Aurorian Church, but of course that didn't exist in 2700. |

| Message | Good stats work, although we are disappointed at the erosion in the atheist population. Could you rename the bill so it starts 'CENSUS'? |
