The Nabetseican Church in Jeltronia

The Nabetseican Church in Jeltronia is part of the worldwide religion of Nabetseism under the spiritual leadership of the Emperor. It is the largest religion in the Nabetseican Realm of Jeltronia and the rest of the Jeltronian Empire, and has the largest number of adherents in a Nabetseican denomination. The religion is recognized and protected by successive imperial decrees as the state religion of Jeltronia, although citizens are granted the freedom to choose their own faith and or belief.

Nabetseism arrived in Jeltronia on June 17, 2011 when Captain Basil Montana and his party landed on the eastern shore of present day Jobe, where he claimed the continent for the Nabetseican Empire. Not only did this mean a new land to conquer and bring under the flag of his homeland, but Captain Montana was also tasked by the Emperor by his authority and dignity as Head of the Nabetseican Church to spread the faith to all the peoples therein. The captain's small community, Clovis Port, will host the first Nabetseican chapel in the Jeltronian lands and will serve the spiritual needs of the growing colonial population that found a home in the Clovis Port. Clovis Port will form the nucleus of what would grow to become Montana, present day Jobe, and will also be the first stop of Nabetseican missionaries arriving in the colony.

From Montana, Nabetseican missionaries will continue to spread the faith west and south, converting the indigenous people. The pre-conquest religion of the natives consisted of a variety of monotheistic and polytheistic cults. Natives also worshiped nature and venerated the spirits of their ancestors whom they propitiated with sacrifices. Mostly men practiced ritualistic drinking and many rituals performed aimed at cure for a certain illness. Magic and superstition also existed among the natives. Some of the indigenous folk resisted the Nabetseication of the Jeltronian mainland. However, the missionaries continued their proselytising efforts, one strategy being targeting noble children. These scions of now-tributary monarchs and rulers were subjected to intense education in religious doctrine and the Nabetseican language, with the belief that they in turn could convert their elders, and eventually, the nobleman's subjects.

In 2016, following a determination by the Emperor to consolidate imperial power and influence in the region, Jeltronia was elevated to a constituent realm under the Empire. The colony has grown rapidly, supported by a steady flow of immigrants from the homeland and nearby countries looking to start anew; the continued modernization of the economy; and reliable reserves of natural resources. These and a stable and responsible government powered the industrialization and urbanization of Jeltronia, until it became a true realm in itself.
