Religion
Each city and character will follow their own Religion. When enough characters in a Family convert to the Nation's religion the Nation will receive additional benefits. There are two types of religions in Old World: Pagan Religions and World Religions.
- Pagan Religions are unique to each Nation and founded once the Nation completes its first Shrine improvement. Pagan Religions cannot spread, do not have Disciples and Theologies and can only be adopted as State Religion with the
Divine Rule law. - World Religions can be founded once certain requirements are met. Pagan Religions can spread, have Disciples and Theologies and can always be adopted as State Religions. When a World Religion is founded, it founder will receive the option to gain 50
Civics, make a donation and gain 40 Opinion with the Religion for 40 years, or gain 2 
Legitimacy and lose 40 Opinion with the Religion for 40 years.
