Darmian Orthodox Christianity

Darmian Orthodox Christianity is one of the branches of Christian religion on the Mappercraft minecraft server. The current seat of Darmian Orthodox Christianity is in La Jagua. Currently no church exists in La Jagua but they are planned. The Ecumenial Patriarch of La Jagua is LordKarutemo, the first and current leader of the religion.

Earth World 4
About two weeks after the map launched on May 7th 2016, the nation of Darmia was formed with its core members being leader Anda22 and LordKarutemo.

Thoughts of making a religion for their nation between the two kept popping up in voice calls, but it never came to fruition. However, LordKarutemo made friends with Creator and his nation, the Gherensi Jabrilate. Creator created a religion after himself - creatorism. Creator decided to name LordKarutemo the first prophet of creatorism, a title he held throughout Earth World 4 and North America World. Upon receiving the title, LordKarutemo branched out forming Orthodox Creatorism - a blend of Orthodox Christianity and Creatorism. As days went on, LordKarutemo would further stray away from Creator and his religion to focus on political situations in Darmia and to get away from Creator's bad public image and Creator himself - as LordKarutemo thought Creator was really weird.

Orthodox Creatorism wouldnt last for long as LordKarutemo would look to completely remove any "creatorist" aspects from the religion.

Earth World 5
In EW5, LordKarutemo would switch nations as Darmia would eventually cease to exist as a nation and become a state of the Starymglian Empire. Eventually joining Starym himself, LordKarutemo would quickly become of high rank and he settled in Gibraltar, immediately declaring Darmian Orthodox Christianity as the local state religion. It was never officially recognized by Starym - as Starym never had an official state religion.

The first churches of Darmian Orthodoxy were built in Libya and in Egypt, in Alexandria and Cairo. Egypt would soon be handed over to Arabia and as Libya was part of the highly autonomous Imperia state, Darmian Orthodox Christianity had no real seat or church, even though one was planned in Gibraltar, but never constructed due to LordKarutemo being kicked out of Starym.

Earth World 6
In EW6, as a very high ranking member of the Aragan Empire, LordKarutemo focused more on political affairs and foreign diplomacy, helping the rest of the nation eventually become the strongest nation in the world - with lots to offer culture-wise as well. The seat of Darmian Orthodox Christianity was declared in Berlin, however the official state religion of the Aragan Empire was Aragan Roman Catholicism, seated in Danzig, with the pope at the time being Cambrian_.

This would be the beginning of the eternal rift between the Roman Catholic church and Darmian Orthodox Christian church which would last even to present Mappercraft days, however the rift isnt treated seriously as its sole creation was out of a joke - and it still remains to be one.

A step was taken by LordKarutemo and some others to help repair the now very griefed and abandoned city of Varna, once capital of Darmia and seat of the Darmian Orthodox Christian church. The repairs would take place some time in August of 2017. The city would receive a completely new look and would be completely renovated, with a giant quartz and gold block cross being created in the middle of the city.

To end Earth World 6, a state was built in Varna. It contained netherrack that was lit up upon the end of the world deemed the Eternal Fire. This flame would continue to exist up until the very end of the Earth World series.

Earth World 7
In EW7 the plan for the Aragan industrial core city - Zentrumstadt - was drafted by the Reichstag, but the city was never constructed. The city was supposed to house a church and a grand church would be built in Berlin as the seat of the religion. Neither plan would see a start.

Post annexation of the Starymglian Empire and upon achieving dominance over most of the world, LordKarutemo regained control of Gibraltar, the old seat of the religion, the church in Libya and regained control of Varna, the oldest and first seat of the church.

Not much would happen as Earth World 7 ended in 2019, and with it the Earth World series. Darmian Orthodox Christianity would not be featured in any switch world between Earth World 7 and the current Mappercraft world.

Present
In the presetn world there has been a lot more care between the community for religions and that includes LordKarutemo. The current seat of Darmian Orthodox Christianity is in La Jagua. Currently no church exists in La Jagua but they are planned.

During the Iberia-Zaire war, LordKarutemo, xXMultiXx and bonito_pibb defended the church in Kinshasa from terrorist attacks and removed the several cobble monsters attempted to be built on top of it. They renovated the church on the inside and outside and named it the church of Saint John Chrysostom. The first mass was held during the war, held by LordKarutemo. Present in the church were bonito_pibb, Owning, xXMultiXx and Sbeve(unsure). The people prayed for the Iberians and Zaireans and peace in the war. The church of Saint John Chrysostom would be the place of writing the first two Darmian Christian Orthodox books in the history of the religion, and some of the first in the history of the server of which one is a shortened copy of the Divine Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom in Cyrillic Serbian.

Current plans for a church are for two to be built in the Caribbean - La Jagua and Diamond Coast, however these construction plans are far from the starting point.
