|-
| rowspan=3 | '''View on Gender'''
| {{iconify|Male Dominated}}
|
Men are stronger and better equipped to lead us in this harsh and unforgiving world, so we shall entrust them with governing our society.
|-
| {{iconify|Equal}}
|
It is foolish to deny skilled people a role in government purely because of their gender. We shall allow all who are able to govern our society.
|-
| {{iconify|Female Dominated}}
|
Women have proven time and time again that only they have the wisdom and prudence necessary to properly govern our society.
|-
| rowspan=3 | '''Religious Attitude'''
| {{iconify|Fundamentalist}}
|
Our faith is the one true faith, our word the one true word. Any deviation from the [ReligiousText] is inherently blasphemous.
|-
| {{iconify|Righteous}}
|
As mortals we cannot fully comprehend [HighGod]'s will, but our priests still have a pretty good idea of what is holy and what is profane.
|-
| {{iconify|Pluralist}}
|
It is utter folly to say that there is only one right interpretation of divine will, and that all the others views are wrong. Each of us has our own way of worshiping [HighGod]
|-
| rowspan=2 | '''Clerical Tradition'''
| {{iconify|Theocratic}}
|
Only sanctioned priests can be entrusted with upholding our faith's doctrines and, by extension, with managing and caring for our sacred places.
|-
| {{iconify|Lay Clergy}}
|
Any devoted follower is more than capable of understanding, following, and preaching the doctrines of our faith.
|-
| rowspan=3 | '''Head of Faith'''
| {{iconify|None}}
|
It is utter folly to assume that any one person can truly comprehend the will of [HighGod]. We must follow our own hearts to discover what their plan for us is.
|-
| {{iconify|Spiritual}}
|
The physical world and the spiritual world are not alike. We must ensure the spiritual world has it's own leader, to guide us and to protect our faith from being profaned by physical desires.
|-
| {{iconify|Temporal}}
|
The spiritual and the physical are intrinsically bound together, whole and inseparable. It is foolish to have two different leaders for one realm.
|-
| rowspan=4 | '''Muhammad's Succession'''
| {{iconify|Sunni}}
|
Abu Bakr was chosen by the Ummah as their rightful leader, both politically and religiously.
|-
| {{iconify|Shia}}
|
Ali was named by Muhammad as the leader of the Ummah, and only through him can the lineage of spiritual leadership be traced.
|-
| {{iconify|Muhakkima}}
|
Ali was Muhammad's rightful successor, and his acceptance of arbitration during the First Fitna therefore goes against the will of Allah! Only He can judge a suitable leader for us.
|-
| {{iconify|Zandaqa}}
|
Though we may trace the line of the Prophet correctly or not according to other Muslims, our beliefs mark us as outcasts regardless. Let the sinners call us Zandaqa: we know the truth!
|-
| rowspan=3| '''Ecumenism'''
| {{iconify|Ecumenism}}
|
Our religious leaders have historically been engaged in inter-faith dialogs to increase cooperation amongst the different Christian denominations.

== {{anchor|Crime Doctrines}} Crime doctrines ==
Crime doctrines determine whether certain acts are accepted, shunned or {{iconify|crime}}s. Shunned activity gives rise to secrets that can be blackmailed for a {{iconify|weak hook}}, while criminal activity gives rise to secrets that can be blackmailed for a {{iconify|strong hook}}. Exposing such a secret gives the relevant characters a negative fame trait, and causes them to lose a level of {{iconify|devotion}} and {{iconify|opinion}} with all characters who consider the activity shunned or criminal.

| {{iconify|Male Dominated}}
|
Men are stronger and better equipped to lead us in this harsh and unforgiving world, so we shall entrust them with governing our society.
|-
| {{iconify|Equal}}
|
It is foolish to deny skilled people a role in government purely because of their gender. We shall allow all who are able to govern our society.
|-
| {{iconify|Female Dominated}}
|
Women have proven time and time again that only they have the wisdom and prudence necessary to properly govern our society.
|-
| rowspan=3 | '''Religious Attitude'''
| {{iconify|Fundamentalist}}
|
Our faith is the one true faith, our word the one true word. Any deviation from the [ReligiousText] is inherently blasphemous.
|-
| {{iconify|Righteous}}
|
As mortals we cannot fully comprehend [HighGod]'s will, but our priests still have a pretty good idea of what is holy and what is profane.
|-
| {{iconify|Pluralist}}
|
It is utter folly to say that there is only one right interpretation of divine will, and that all the others views are wrong. Each of us has our own way of worshiping [HighGod]
|-
| rowspan=2 | '''Clerical Tradition'''
| {{iconify|Theocratic}}
|
Only sanctioned priests can be entrusted with upholding our faith's doctrines and, by extension, with managing and caring for our sacred places.
|-
| {{iconify|Lay Clergy}}
|
Any devoted follower is more than capable of understanding, following, and preaching the doctrines of our faith.
|-
| rowspan=3 | '''Head of Faith'''
| {{iconify|None}}
|
It is utter folly to assume that any one person can truly comprehend the will of [HighGod]. We must follow our own hearts to discover what their plan for us is.
|-
| {{iconify|Spiritual}}
|
The physical world and the spiritual world are not alike. We must ensure the spiritual world has it's own leader, to guide us and to protect our faith from being profaned by physical desires.
|-
| {{iconify|Temporal}}
|
The spiritual and the physical are intrinsically bound together, whole and inseparable. It is foolish to have two different leaders for one realm.
|-
| rowspan=4 | '''Muhammad's Succession'''
| {{iconify|Sunni}}
|
Abu Bakr was chosen by the Ummah as their rightful leader, both politically and religiously.
|-
| {{iconify|Shia}}
|
Ali was named by Muhammad as the leader of the Ummah, and only through him can the lineage of spiritual leadership be traced.
|-
| {{iconify|Muhakkima}}
|
Ali was Muhammad's rightful successor, and his acceptance of arbitration during the First Fitna therefore goes against the will of Allah! Only He can judge a suitable leader for us.
|-
| {{iconify|Zandaqa}}
|
Though we may trace the line of the Prophet correctly or not according to other Muslims, our beliefs mark us as outcasts regardless. Let the sinners call us Zandaqa: we know the truth!
|-
| rowspan=3| '''Ecumenism'''
| {{iconify|Ecumenism}}
|
Our religious leaders have historically been engaged in inter-faith dialogs to increase cooperation amongst the different Christian denominations.

== {{anchor|Crime Doctrines}} Crime doctrines ==
Crime doctrines determine whether certain acts are accepted, shunned or {{iconify|crime}}s. Shunned activity gives rise to secrets that can be blackmailed for a {{iconify|weak hook}}, while criminal activity gives rise to secrets that can be blackmailed for a {{iconify|strong hook}}. Exposing such a secret gives the relevant characters a negative fame trait, and causes them to lose a level of {{iconify|devotion}} and {{iconify|opinion}} with all characters who consider the activity shunned or criminal.
