Ameridian Island
17-07-2006, 19:34
Groups of Napoleonic French officers and soldiers found the island with Australian Aboriginals on it. The island was made a Kingdom, with God Save The King as anthem. The first king was Charles I. Charles I would rule with a Royal Line that goes to Sarah I, the current Queen who recently turned 18.
The French here adopted a return to Bourbon style rule, that is, the keeping of Catholicism as state faith for example. A Royal Cardinal was appointed and Jesuit missions appeared. Fransiscans and others soon came in. French and Aboriginal language was made the offical ones. The Aboriginal culture still exists, their religion does too, it is with Catholicism a national religion.
The Princes and Princesses were usually baptised when born. Sarah I was baptised herself. They also went to Mass (Roman Catholic), usually at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Virgin (renamed from simply Virgin at the time of the intro of the Immaculate Conception doctrine).
Charles Rosarius is a figure known for being a Prince who rejected being a King for the clergy. He is also known for being bit of a free thinker. But he is respected, named Rosarius for the rosary he held.
Catholicism has enjoyed here a good number of followers who go to services. The Cardinal, Juan Melendez was a Spanish Cardinal who came to the island and became Royal Cardinal (Cardinal of the Royal Family).
The Court is divided into:
Princes
Princesses
King
Queen
Officals
Clergy (Used for Royal Mass)
A statue of Charles Rosarius graces Rosarius Square in New Paris. The Martel Fortress is where the Royals live, named after Charles Martel who deflected the Arab Muslims from Europe in the 730's.
The Catholic Church is the ''offical Christian church of the State'' here. Catholic schools are numerous but secular schools are around too. Royals are taught Catholic doctrine but one King was a Protestant (Charles VIII The Protestant).
Charles VIII was a Protestant. He founded the Free Church, which is headed by a Bishop (highest position). The Free Church is more towards Protestantism but does not have hatred for Catholics. The Free Church was made ''2nd offical Christian church'' by Charles VIV in 1943.
The Free Church uses a simple worship plan for services. Their main cathedral is the Cathedral of Freedom, where the Bishop resides. The Free Church has Queen Sarah I as a member.
Queen Sarah turned 18, crowned at 17. So, she is, open for marriage, when that time comes. She goes to Free Church services and was baptised in that church.
The only Saints the Free Church canonized was Charles Rosarius and Charles VIII.
More later on my little French-Aboriginal nation. Notice: Things here may be changed later!
