Description[?]:
| Recognizing the central role of the Hosian faith in the history and culture of our Federation, and believing that the preservation and advancement of that faith is a central and essential task of our government, The Hosian Bund proposes the establishment of the Hosian United Confessional Church of the Darnussian Federation, which shall be the official state church. The HUCC shall be bifurcated into separate Aurorian Patriarchal and Luthoran Confessions, united only at the highest level by the joint leadership of the Aurorian Patriarch and the Luthoran Master. Upon the enactment of this law, foreign missionaries, regardless of faith or denomination, must be approved by the HUCC and Kanzler / Kanselier. The law also requires all citizens to register their religion in their vital records. |
