Main religion in your nation? The Faith of Cael
The percentage of the population affiliated with the above religion? 65%
How free is one to practice another type of religion? The right to do so is protected by our constitution
Is abortion legal and/or is it encouraged? It is legal and while it is frowned upon socially, the current ruling government opposes attempts to limit access as being against the spirit of legalization
Are terrorist attacks about religion common? Ru had a long history of staunch imperialism, conquering and subjugating other races and cultures, thus it is more likely to be the victim of such an attack then the source of its perpetrators
How much types of religion, excluding Atheism and Agnosticism, are there? Catholic and Protestant Christianity, Judaism, and Islam are the most statistically significant minority religions, though there are many more.
Is Atheism common and/or supported by the government? Atheism is uncommon in Ru, but while the Faith of Cael is the official religion of the monarch and of Ru, our constitution mandates a secular government, and protects the right to freely practice atheism.

Main religion in your nation? There is no official state religion. While most people are atheist or agnostic, the biggest actual religion is paganism.
The percentage of the population affiliated with the above religion? 3.8%
How free is one to practice another type of religion? There are not restrictions except for when it comes to places of worship. Those are illegal to build, however you are free to transform your own house or some cave into one. The legality of such a worship places would depend of many various factors, however the law is often unenforced in such cases, unless the place becomes popular.
Is abortion legal and/or is it encouraged? Legal. Generally people mind their own business and don't care what you do with your body, so it's neither encouraged or discouraged.
Are terrorist attacks about religion common? Unheard of.
How much types of religion, excluding Atheism and Agnosticism, are there? Very few, only Paganism and Christianity. Of course without places of worship and wide-spread secularism, it's hard to say what people actually believe in. There may be more religions than that, but these two are the only major ones.
Is Atheism common and/or supported by the government? Yes, very common, but the government doesn't support it. The leading party, Freedom Movement, actually encourages agnosticism and the SBNR (Spiritual But Not Religious) movement.

Main religion in your nation? Christianity
The percentage of the population affiliated with the above religion? 62% (32% Protestant, 28% Apostolic Catholic, 2% Other)
How free is one to practice another type of religion? One is essentially free to practice almost any religion or no religion at all. The Church of Scientology and similar groups have been found to have engaged in fraud, kidnapping, and other offenses and religious protections were not found to protect them. Religious objections do not exempt a person from otherwise binding civil laws regarding nondiscrimination, vaccination, etc. If conscription is implemented, a valid religious objection guarantees service in a medical or support unit but does not exempt one from service.
Is abortion legal and/or is it encouraged? Legal but not encouraged
Are terrorist attacks about religion common? No
How many types of religion, excluding Atheism and Agnosticism, are there? Dozens, but there are five religions which have a statistically significant number of adherents. All of these are subdivided into various schools, sects, and denominations.
Is Atheism common and/or supported by the government? 27% of Ursidans identify themselves as non-religious, including Atheists, Agnostics, and others. The government is secular but not atheistic. That is to say the government leaves religious practice as a private matter but does not discourage citizens from believing or practicing a religion except as noted above.

Main religion in your nation? No official religion; Judaism is the majority religion.
The percentage of the population affiliated with the above religion? 37.32% of the population.
How free is one to practice another type of religion? Yes, guaranteed by the constitution
Is abortion legal and/or is it encouraged? Legal on request since 1991.
Are terrorist attacks about religion common? Rare, but occur, the last major one was in 2012.
How many types of religion, excluding Atheism and Agnosticism, are there? Many. The majority is Judaism, at about 37%, followed by Christianity at 33.62% (broken down to 21.00% Protestant (all) and 11.62 Catholic, and 1.00% other), followed by irreligious (excluding atheism) at about 28%.
Is Atheism common and/or supported by the government? Only about 2% of the population professes to be atheists, it is uncommon, and the government does not "support" atheism, it allows it since freedom of religion (or lack thereof) is guaranteed by the constitution. The government is officially secular, as it tries to keep unity in a nation that is half Jew and half Christian.
