OOC Discussion

Would anyone be interested in further participating in this? Please just name a Cardinal or ask me and I'll name a Cardinal for you if you give me the nationality. I ask all Catholic nations to please participate.

OOC: I know my current country isnt catholic and as such does not have a large caholic community, but maybe you could name a socalled Cardinal in pectore or secret cardinal for the Kafuri church province. The Holy See in real life appoints certain Cardinals in secret to protect them or their congregations from reprisals in countries hostile to the Catholic Faith.

I dont know if you can use this for youre rp, but its just a thought.

[Farsun]

I could do that, absolutely.

[Farsun]

anyone else?

[meisme]

lol any non-arabic based nations? No offense, but c'mon Catholic nations!

Seeing as the old Terran Catholic Church was dominated by Deletaria, the Catholic Church of Terra will be an entirely new organization that will seek to replace the Terran Catholic Church as the foremost Catholic institution on Terra.

Not sure of Gaduridos, but since it's supposed to be Italian/Spanish (and former colony of everyone) I suppose it has a large number of catholics.
