'''Religions''' are founded in a [[cities|city]] of major [[nations]], becoming the ''Holy City'' of that religion. Religions can spread to other cities & tribal sites and be adopted by individual characters, families, tribes and whole nations. The religion's [[opinion]] towards a nation affects the discontent in cities with followers of that religion. Some [[laws]] (like Orthodoxy or Divine Rule) change the way religions are spread and adopted. Other laws (like Monotheism or Holy war) add to the benefits of having followers in cities.
'''Religions''' in Old World are divided into 2 categories:
* 4 Global Religions - Founded by the first nation to complete a certain goal, '''can''' recruit disciples and establish Theologies.
* National Paganism - Founded when the first shrine in each nation is built, '''cannot''' recruit disciples and establish Theologies.


==National Religions==
Once founded in a certain city, a religion will passively spread to neighbouring cities. The religion's opinion towards each nation affects the discontent in cities that contain followers of that religion. Cities with followers of a global religion can use {{icon|growth}}growth to produce [[Disciple|Disciples]] - civilian [[Units|unit]] that can spread religion to other cities & tribal sites, as well as establishing theologies and building unique improvements of that religion.
A national religion (such as Assyrian Paganism, Roman Paganism, etc.) is founded when the first [[improvements|shrine]] of each nation is built. It spreads to other cities only by building shrines of that religion in them. National Religions '''cannot''' recruit disciples or establish Theologies under any circumstances. National religions may be adopted as a State Religion (using Divine Rule law).


==World Religions==
==Global Religions==
World Religions are founded when:
* The first nation completes the required condition for founding the religion (detailed below) , or
* A Nation founds the Clerics' Family Seat (only available for [[Assyria]], [[Egypt]] & [[Persia]] in the base game), or
* Through a cultural or other [[events|event]] ("''Moses''" event, for example, founds Judaism)
 
 
Once founded in a certain city, these religions passively spread to nearby cities and tribal sites (the larger the map is, the higher the chance to spread - +2% per size). Cities with followers of a world religion can use its {{icon|growth}}growth output to produce Disciples - civilian [[Units]] that can perform these actions:
* Build unique [[improvements]] in cities with followers - Temple, Monastery, Cathedral
* Build the unique "Wonder" of each religion in its Holy City
* Spread the religion by traveling to a city with no followers (consumes the unit)
* Establish a Theology, if adopted as State Religion (consumes the unit)

==Theologies==
==Theologies==
These tenets of belief can be added to a global religion, adopted as a state religion, by a [[Units|disciple]] following that religion. Only 1 theology of each tier may be added. Adding a theology also increases the chance for the religion to spread by 5% per year.
