”Today the people in Dracun have been calling for the Chancellor to become the new Holy Father. Many were quoted saying along the similar lines of, "In a world where religion is oppressed and dying a new leader is needed." The Chancellor has yet to comment, but his Vice Chancellor, Angelo Vidar has made repeated statements saying that the Chancellor is greatly honored by such a thing but he believes that church and state should be separated.

Wait we interrupt this news for a broadcast for a report from Imperial Center, the Chancellor is going to make a statement!”


The television screens switched to a banner bearing the flag of the Dracun Imperium, with the Chancellor in front standing behind a podium. He seemed a little nervous but many were confident in his abilities so he should be to. Finally after dozens of flashes from cameras the Chancellor called for silence and began speaking, "Good afternoon, people of Dracun. I come before you today do to the fact you have called for me to become the newest Pope. I decided that rather then deciding myself and getting us in trouble with the church I have called for an international vote, whether I become the recognized Pope or not is up to them, that is all." And dozens of questions were hurtled at him as he left the podium and exited the room.



OOC: I decided to do this because we have no organized religious figures, and although this may be criticized as mirroring RL I decided to do it anyway. I think it could lead to dozens of interesting RPs.
EDIT: OOC: If you guys can just post IC or OOC so I know what nations voted so I could know who would reconize me, it can help thanks!

[OOC: I'm sure that many Roman Catholic nations aren't going to agree with you appointing him as Pope. Indeed, it would be done by a college of cardinals from all over the world. Consequently, I can already see splits within party lines.

To make sure I didn't have any problems I just made my own denomination, based entirely on Roman Catholocism, only with a pope appointed by my emperor, and my emperor alone - I haven't RPd with Pope Transgruff I in a long while. Maybe I'll start.]

"If Chancellor Tinverian plans to instill strong traditional values, espouse conservative, puritanical views, and promote decency, good faith, and pure, moral views, then we will heartily endorse his papacy."

Official Government Response
The Chancellor vote for papacy has been deterred; the Chancellor has reportedly stepped down due to international wishes and those of his allies. He has said that though it was an honor it wouldn't be practical to be able to lead his country and lead the Roman Catholic religion, saying it would be a mixture of affairs, something he does not want.

He however does thank his allies for their support and their loyalty.
