I'm not very religious, though I am in my Catholic school choir. Honestly, as long as you don't question MY beliefs and you don't believe in something stupid, not just stupid like George Bush, but Scientology stupid, than I don't care.

Well, I feel there is a difference between questioning and respecting. As a firm believer in Evolution, I welcome people to question my beliefs, I actually invite them to. Questioning beliefs is a vital part of improving them and building upon them. Before the Reformation in the Church, questioning why people were able to buy their way out of "sin" with indulgences was heretical, but people did question it, and ultimately it improved Christianity. Questioning if the Earth was truly the center of the universe was heathenish, but people did question it, and it improved the world. Questions are never a bad thing, the people trying to stop them are.

He probably has the best time on Sunday out of all of us, with all that dancing.

Wait, They Get to Dance!!!???

Yes, Pentecostals get to dance. And then there are baptecostals (not kidding there is such a thing) where it is Baptist but they get to dance. I bet you could dance. Join us we have donuts, every Sunday morning.

Let's stop this discussion now, everyone's religion is tolerated here. Let's get back to the game and give the guy above me a list of accepted nations.

I will have a talk with you tomorrow over Evolution and why you think it is true.

Tobuscsus kinda sounds like that one

[The Ik Ka Ek Akai]

Nation name: (to keep with the theme of religious rebels) Byzantine Hellenic zealot rebels

Ruler: (lazy naming, I can't find many good Late Greek names) Athena Mytilinites

Religion: Hellenism (Don't say it way dead; it was never dead)

Population: 10,000

Military Numbers: Since it is a rebel group, I'm hoping the whole population is accepted.

Main focus: Deposition of the emperor and restoration of a Hellenic Greek state

Other: Their reasoning for why it will work: if the Hellenic Greeks and Romans formed such massive empires, and Christian Romans had a failing empire, then Hellenism must be right. The Queen fancies herself to be an incarnate of Athena, or at least a blessed messenger. Their plans after restoration shall be conquest to reform the Byzantine, and possibly Alexandrian, Empire. They also hope to reform the Roman Empire, but even restoring the Alexandrian Empire is unrealistic currently. They are hoping to get positions at the emperor's court, help him conquer back lands, and then hold an insider coup.

Sweden too

[Kahlenberg]

Plus the Dutch.

@ OP: could you add the perks of the other accepted nations in the opening post?

[Kahlenberg]

Oh, I guess it speaks for itself that I chose to ignore the construction of 15 Mon Meg-caliber guns (they are not called Mon Megs, that was the specific name of a gun given to the Scottish court) because it is unrealistic and absurd in general. This goes as well for the vassalization remark. I demand proper roleplaying before I respond to others, and there is not even a short letter with the demands made by Burgundy. I therefore trust the OP will take measures.
