Talk:Holy Nepharian Empire

On Religion "Yah nepharian gods are more like- concepts and math. Imagine personifying islamic tessellation art over the surface area of the hindu pantheon. I've always figured their religion has flavorings from islamic, hindu and some buddhist traditions in terms of it bounds. Somewhat inspired by new wave spiritualism having obsessions with "ethnic" religions to try and be faux-mystical. A lot of their faith is convolution for convolution sake though, kinda like hinduism/shinto, there's a lifestyle mixed in. Despite the fact that it serves a pretty cynical purposes, it does have a pretty wholestic core of "the universe is you and you re it so be kind to others".

I also imagine there's plenty of nepharians that sincerely take to that motto and are pretty cool dudes."

On Government "I would say the people who run nepharian government see it as an empire but as soon as you exit that top, shadow echelon they would say they work more like a soviet-ish style republic focused on spiritual self-improvemet. Even then, the government doesn't have expansionist tenancies so much as they're just super cynical about their people and think "hey, if we didn't own this shit things could really fly off the rails"."
