The Occult In Your Nation

[Sardakhar]

The occult is ignored in our nation. It is regarded as rather uninteresting.

[Socialist Indonesia]

Occult definitely is banned within the Socialist Republic, and any followers of it shall faced the horrible torture at the Dark Chamber, the torture area in the capital, Rakyakarta, including the confinement for hours in a gas chamber, the water that rains forcefully into the mouth, also the usual view of Party's paid torturers, women with tight black dress, red headband and (probably human) leather boots, carrying whip. Don't forget a beautiful People's Trial, a wonderful death sentence with cyanide.

That's not because we're a capitalist, religious bigots, that mainly because we're the sincere supporters of progress, and cannot let the obstacle of progress continued their dirty work. Occultism is clearly an obstacle of progress, with their ridiculous belief in the invisible stuffs. They shall be eliminated, for the good of Republic.

[Veceria]

What's the status of the occult in your nation?
A personal hobby of many Vecerians.

[Sanian Confederacy]

Cults and the Occult are by no means dirty words within Sanian thought. Cult worship by itself is merely the focused veneration of certain powers or principles, which deviates from the polytheism practiced by most Sanians. While most Sanians worship many spirits that have some influence over their lives, those following a cult or studying the occult focus on specific spirits, or specific philosophical codes and teachings, which act as their source of divine inspiration and guidance. Cults offer examples of a more focused religious experience, and often tend to incorporate or pay respects to the standard polytheism as well. Thus multiple groups of Cults and Occult followers of a relatively begin nature exist all throughout Sani. Though groups that endanger the lives of their followers or partake in particularly vile portions of the dark arts, i.e Necromancy and the resurrection of ancient eldritch abominations. Are hunted by the state with extreme prejudice.

[Zokoria]

"Occults" are extremely frowned upon and considered as Satanic in Zokoria.

[Ryaanistan]

We have no such thing, but if we did then it would be treated with pure skeptism, we do an excellent job at informing our citizens of what is real and what is not, but it is legal.

[Reichsland]

Reichsland generally associates the word occult with the worship of satan or his allies, which is anything opposed to God. People who are caught practicing these things are imprisoned and forced into hard labor.

[Subhurbia]

While its not illegal, it is restricted and only meant for people of the ruling class, or high tier engineers.

[Zhouran]

The Kangyulic Zhouranese world has always had a strong tradition of magic, shamanism, sorcery, and mysticism for several millennia long thanks to the ingrained influences of the Spiritual Mandate (indigenous religion of the Kangyuli people created somewhere in 3,270 BCE) and the religion's mythos & cosmology. There have been numerous cabals in Zhouran since ancient time that had worked to harness those esoteric powers, secretive occult cliques enigmatically practicing the harnessing of zuheyanxi magic whether it be for benevolent purposes such as seeking higher knowledge or malevolent purposes such as imposing total torment and absolute oppression on the innocent.

[Wochaystein]

It is currently under debate following the death of Karlspreis Adam in Wochaystein's National Lodge of Freemasonry.

[Haviland]

Practice of the "occult" is freely permitted in the Republic, as freedom of religion is a constitutional right. However, like most fringe and cultic groups, its practitioners are viewed with suspicion and fear by most members of society.

[Gwrachbyd]

if by occult you are referring to the practice of wicca, and other pagan religions then this is quite common in gwrachbyd. while religion as a whole is not widely practised, those who do practice tend towards the various pagan religions. as a rule however the government does not endorse any one particular religion and provided that one does not use religion as an excuse for discrimination then we pay little attention to what one chooses to believe

[Monsone]

Not illegal, but the nation is so secular that it's dismissed as a frige lunatic cult that few people participate in.

[TURTLESHROOM II]

Sorcery is illegal in TurtleShroom and is punishable by a maximum of eighty years in prison. Occultism can only be studied in the religious context of how to defeat it. Supernatural and occult artifacts used in and for sorcery are stored by secret bodies, by the Church, and throughout the country in both extragovernmental and Church matters.

As part of the Treaty of Gerry, the TurtleShroomian government was made to turn over its own stores of occult artifacts.

[Gandoor]

The concept of the occult is perfectly legal here, but most Gandoorese consider it little more than nonsense.

[Greater Cosmicium]

Occultism in Greater Cosmicium is fully legal, very popular, and sometimes even encouraged, the result being that Satanism and its related branches are now even more popular than the Khaazai faith (in fact it's Christianity, and in general the Abrahamic religions that are banned). This is likely the cause of many paranormal events happening in Greater Cosmicium.

The occult realm in Greater Cosmicium is also regularly studied by both the Cosmician military (a significant part of the Paranormal Research Division's budget is devoted to it) and citizens in search of better mind-control weapons and a potential one-shot solution to all of Greater Cosmicium's current problems. So far, research on this subject has been considered a massive success, with Lucifer gained as Fleet Marshal and several new types of "weapons from Hell" discovered.

[Terabithya]

It is forbidden of course. If someone was engaging in occultism rather innocently he/she has to go receive the Sacrament of Penance. If one is unwilling to go to Confession because of that, one is punished by death (and before execution is still given a last chance of Confession). If someone deliberately spreads occult teachings he/she will be punished by death but is given a chance of Confession of his/her sins (like all who have been sentenced to death) but they will be executed. The Confession saves their soul from eternal damnation if they accept the Sacrament and receive it validly. In most of such cases an exorcism may be necessary before trial and it's tested whether one is necessary.

[Kristis Corpse]

The Occult in our wasteland centers around the belief in artificially intelligent nuclear weapons that convince people to do bad things. Some rumors suggest they control the government, although that has never been proven.

[Katzan]

Most Katzanese don't believe in the occult, though there is a wide range of beliefs here.

[Sadakoyama]

...artificially intelligent nuclear weapons that convince people to do bad things...

Would you have a few moments free to speak with some of our weapons design people?


The occult, like other religious and superstitious beliefs, are studied for their cultural and psychological influence on lesser nations and minds, but as a overtly secular nation of scientists no credence is given it as a practical tool or legitimate source of knowledge.

[Marsoslavia]

There's no satanism in Marsoslavia. But the slavic pagans are celebrating "Dziady" ("The Forefathers Eve").

[Thaltopia]

Directly participating in Occult Rituals and/or being apart of "Occult Groups" is considered blasphemy and is punishable by swift execution.
