The Ecclesiarchy of Axiom

The Ecclesiastical Authority of Axiom is the administrative name for the temporal holdings of the Trinary Perfection on the planet they call Axiom. Comprising the equatorial deserts of Axiom, the Ecclesiarchy is the political arm of the most powerful and most orthodox arm of the faith; these are the Prototypicalists, heirs to the authority Gregol Corkfell held in life by the partisanship of the Ecclesiarch ARM-1DRIL. It is a society committed doggedly to an austere, pious monasticism; the ideal Axiomite, in the view of its administrators, is utterly committed to a faithful lifestyle, to the tenets of the state religion, and to the collective good.

As the earliest majority synthetic nation, its economy, politics, and culture are all eccentric in innumerable ways. Axiomites are famously averse to the possession and trade of money, owed to the extremely non-commercialised character of the Axiomite economy; more than that, they are often ill at ease with the concept of possession itself. Charity is a common vocation, as many Axiomites compete to prove their piety to eachother - every act of compassion, whether it was earnestly given or not, is critically valuable in a society where reputation, rather than currency, is the primary resource. The population is wildly diverse despite its relative religious homogeneity, being composed virtually exclusively of migrants from across the developed universe, synthetic and organic.

Salamasian immigrants and visitors have become increasingly common in recent years, resulting in a leap of mutual cultural integration. It is not at all difficult to find a Salamasian in Providence, and it is similarly easy to find a Trinarist preacher or indigenous convert in Ti'nema. Axiomites and Salamasians are unlikely ever to see perfectly eye-to-eye, and their history is a long and delicate dance of compromise over mutual interests; there is respect, but it is a distant kind.

While irreligious Axiomites are legally permitted residence, one quickly finds that they must at least express an ostensible interest in church affiliation to fully participate in society, or else be gated from the vast number of civil and community events in the nation that are also Trinarist in character. Despite this difficulty, there is a not-insubstantial secular population of professing Trinarists on the planet, who only so much as murmur prayers at devotion.

City of Providence

Providence serves as the capital of the Ecclesiarchy of Axiom. Founded in 2419, the humble encampment once known as Edena Landing has grown into a fully fledged city worthy of being the Trinary’s seat in the galaxy. In the center of it stands the Cathedral of the Positronic, a grandiose structure based on the defunct administration center that once housed colonial leadership in the early 2300s.
