What is the biggest religion in YN (not including atheism)? Buddhism
Is your populace religious? No, almost 70% of our population considers themselves non-religious.

What is the state of religious freedom in YN? It is constitutionally enshrined, however, other people's rights trump ones freedom of religion. (Religion can't be used to discriminate, for example)

Does YN have a state religion? No - such an idea is forbidden by law.
If so, does your government's laws and legislature rely mostly or entirely on that religion's ideas? N/A
What is the biggest religion in YN (not including atheism)? The Followers of Zorp (all hail Zorp).
Is your populace religious? Not in any sense of the word.
What is the state of religious freedom in YN? Entirely free to believe what you want, as long as you don't force anyone else to believe it.
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.

Is there any other information needed to be aware? The Followers of Zorp is quite literally a fictional made up religion, with only three beliefs : being nice to one another is better than being mean, that everyone is equal, and that we are better working together than apart. It is very, VERY hard to find something that The Followers of Zorp does NOT tolerate, because "being nice is better than being mean" and not tolerating something is being VERY mean! It should also be noted that most people who belong to other religions (Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism and so forth) are also Followers of Zorp. Which is why it is the most popular and populace religion of Calladan (97% of the population list themselves as a FOZ). See here for further information.

Does YN have a state religion? Nein.

If so, does your government's laws and legislature rely mostly or entirely on that religion's ideas? Nein.

What is the biggest religion in YN (not including atheism)? If we exclude atheism it should be agnosticism followed by deism, but as those shouldn't count either, it's both Buddhism and Christianity, which are practically tied.

Is your populace religious? No, more than half of the population is either atheist, agnostic or deist.

What is the state of religious freedom in YN? Freedom of religion is a constitutional right.

Christians and buddhists only make up for 21% of the Minarchi population, thus making religious people too much of a minority for this to be relevant.

Is there any other information needed to be aware? A lot of the views of religious groups in China are based on the regulations of the Religious Groups Act of 1932; this legislation made it mandatory for religious groups to refrain from contradicting the government's policies and other legislations. The rationale is that religious groups should focus on spirituality instead of politics; since religious bodies often have significant followings, the speech and actions of their leaders are deemed political if they contravene government policy. When a religious group becomes political, the government re-registers them as a political group and deprives them of their real property, which was earmarked for use by religious groups. Hence, all religious groups in China are in perfect agreement with government policy on all the areas above. Moreover, the provisions of the Religious Groups Act also hands over a lot of power to leaders, who can hand down administrative penalties to members of such groups for infractions the Ministry of the Interior deems appropriate.

The duty of the state is to prevent danger, not to punish it after it has happened. Rescind the 2nd Amendment, today.

Though the Braecisc people are comparatively Atheistic and agnostic, they enjoy the aesthetic traditions of religion and sometimes this is reflected in national census records where people record their religious affiliation.
