Oricism

Oricism's age is a controversial matter. on the one hand, there is solid proof of Oric temples being built 21.76, yet vague mentions of Oric type cults appear in angelous historical texts back to 9.31; a fact that has many believing it is a timeless idea. Oricism has gained a great number of followers since the days of babylon, strengthening the power of the theocratic authority that unites them; yet today nationalism is converting these once faith based peoples into a more secular system of meta-nationalism.

The Oric theocratic governments forged an alliance between ancient and modern enemies, the banner of eternal life and holy law overcoming a thousand years of war. This authority was initially the key to Imperial unity, yet today they are a nuisance to all those who labor under them. Endless rules and mandates only served to bog technological and social advancements, and their ever growing calls for a global Jihad (replace with Oric name for holy war) weigh heavily on their citizens. Oricisms popularity within the Colonial spheres, especially in the military sectors, is steadily waning.
