Theocracy of New Hesse
The Theocracy of New Hesse is a caesaropapist state in the German region of Hessia from the turn of the 4th millennium.
Culture
The geography and politics of New Hesse are heavily influenced by the late medieval and early Reformation Holy Roman Empire, as well as certain elements of 1st millenium Byzantine politics and religion. It was ruled over by a Patriarch who was heavily influenced by both industrial lobbyists and aristocratic power.
The official state religion appears to have been a heavily mutated denomination of Catholicism quite different from more mainline branches in the rest of the world.
New Hessian academics face a degree of censorship in relation to occult publications.[1]
History
The short-lived Edict of Darmstadt (3105 CE) prohibited the speaking of demonic names. It was repealed one day later after Jan Faust and Alcor the Dreambender paid a visit to the then-current Patriarch, Reiner Gerstmann.[2]
In 3120 CE, the University of Wittenberg lost all but 2 of its 76 demonology majors following the grisly murder of Jan Faust.[2]
