In the name of the Father, the Holy Father, who is never wrong when he speaks ex cathedra so you better believe it or else...

Does YN have a state religion? YES. The HOLY CATHOLIC CHURCH
If so, does your government's laws and legislature rely mostly or entirely on that religion's ideas? ENTIRELY. AMEN.
What is the biggest religion in YN (not including atheism)? There is non but the HOLY CATHOLIC CHURCH. We have three separate monastic orders to suppress, persecute, and eradicate other beliefs.
Is your populace religious? yes
What is the state of religious freedom in YN? This question is heresy. Obviously, the faithful have no need of freedom when they already have the HOLY CHURCH and all the saints interceding for them. They must be free from sin, all other freedom is merely a godless distraction from that goal. Wanna buy some indulgences?
If your majority religion tolerates the concept or idea, answer with O. If not, answer with X. Note that this doesn't apply to the populace as a whole; this only refers to the followers of the biggest religion in YN. Comments welcome.
Atheism: [X]
People not in your religion: [X]
Polygamy: [X] I mean, we don't encourage marriage at all. Celibacy is the way to free oneself from sin. The dogmas all tell us so. Now you want to marry more than one person? HERESY!!!!
Pornography: [X]
Homosexuality: [XXXXXXXXXXXXX] We need scapegoats for when one of our priests turns out to be a pedophile
The rest of the LGBT community: [XXXXXXXXXXXX]
Sodomy: [X]
Insobriety: [O] It's fine; everybody needs a hobby.
Fornication: [X]
Stem cell research: [X] Every sperm is sacred
Science in general: [X/O] As long as it doesn't lead to HERESY
Abortion: [XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX]
Contraception: [XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX]
Women leading in your religion: [XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX] No girls allowed in our proverbial treehouse on God's doorstep. See our factbooks.
Men leading in your religion: [O]
Is there any other information needed to be aware? There is no salvation outside of the church. So join the club or go to Hell. If you won't go to Hell, we will declare a crusade against you, followed by at least of of those three monastic orders, to make you go through Hell, then send you on your way by burning you. We are compassionate in our spread of the gospel: all you have to do is agree with us, and make sure you never say or do anything to the contrary. Also, we will be expecting you in the confession box every week, to discuss all that you have said and done. That is how much we care.

What is the biggest religion in YN (not including atheism)? Anglican Rite Roman Catholicism
Is your populace religious? Yes. 97% adhere to some form of religion.
What is the state of religious freedom in YN? It is illegal for a Roman Catholic subject to apostatise (leave the faith), though the punishment for apostasy is usually fairly mild.

Oaths of office are usually religious in nature, and must be said in order to take the office. One major exception is oaths in court, where the option of 'affirmation' is open to those who refuse to swear oaths, and atheists often choose this option as well.

Free State of Piratia
Overview | The Admiralissima
A republic of pirates led by anarcho-nihilists. Technically an anarcho-capitalist state. Nihilism is our religion, and the hearts of priests are our dinner.
La Capital: The Comunal Defense Force was founded in Montelima. Organized by civilians, the militia is a response to the crime rates of the city and the absence of a public police force. | Three ships were seized by the Neotopian navy yesterday. They belong to a small pirate group based in Kemagor.

"Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.”
