Terran Sun Worship

Terran Sun Worship is a salticid religion in central Pangea Proxima 1, specifically in Helpis and Vast Mopsus. It is a polytheistic religion descended from Proto-Terran traditions, with a special focus on the Sun character.

History
Sun Worship, along with Documentism, evolved as a crystallization and specification of earlier beliefs from the Terran Mingle after the emergence of Portia from the whole. In contrast to the Portian focus on the state and its ability to dole out justice to those who disobeyed the gods as a pantheon, Sun Worship was focused on an individual's personal journey to grow closer to and emulate their ancestral mother, Sun. It is likely that the ideological difference that led to the split between Documentism and Sun Worship was part of the conflict that led to the founding of Portia in the first place.

During Portian colonization, many Sun Worshipers were forced to adopt Documentism by the encroaching power, endangering the belief system.
