Chalcedonian Christianity

Chalcedonian Christianity is the dominant doctrine of Christianity in its original realms. Solidified by the Council of Chalcedon in 451 and essentially continuous ever since, almost all Christians in Europe and its Meridian colonies worship in this tradition.

Beliefs
Chalcedonian belief fundamentally holds that the Jewish preacher Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah (Khristos in the Greek that early Christianity spread through) and Son of God, died for the sins of all humanity, and rose to Heaven to be one with God until the day of His return when all will be judged and the final Kingdom of God established. Chalcedonian faith teaches that the one God is a Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit who are all God and have always been God but are not each other and not separate deities. Chalcedonian Christians worship to atone for the sin they believe is inherent to humanity and to celebrate God and his sacrifice through Jesus while awaiting His return. Doctrinal differences and a call for theocratic reformation in Vesperia eventually lead to the Council of Boston in 1712, where ordained Chalcedonian Christian priests from Eastern Vesperia congregated in Boston, New England, and created the Vesperian Orthodoxy Church.

Organization
Chalcedonian Christianity is organized hierarchically but not centrally, with ranks of educated and ordained priests led by bishops and archbishops over wider territories. Ever since the early councils the five most respected and vital bishops have been the effective leaders of the Church, being from Constantinople, Rome (although relocated to Avignon after the Muslim conquest of the city), Antioch, Jerusalem, and Alexandria.

Holy Roman Empire
The Holy Roman Empire is almost homogenous Chalcedonian Christian. The creation of the Holy Roman Empire in 800 A.D. threatened to nearly split the Church between the Prince-Bishop of Rome in Avignon and the Prince-Bishop of Antioch.
