Elamite Order: Difference between revisions

Line 3:

The '''Order of Elamite Hospitallers of the Seven Churches''' is a [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] religious order.

The Order was originally formed to provide protection, accommodations, and spiritual care to [[Kiravian]] pilgrims visiting Christian holy sites in the [[Istroya|Istroyan Basin]]. Further to these functions, the Order began developing military capabilities and would emerge as a militarily potent chivalric order during the Crusades, due largely to their mastery of {{wp|amphibious warfare}} tactics. As the "{{wp|shock troops}} of Christendom", the Elamites saw action on numerous fronts throughout the Crusades, and in the process acquired territorial holdings in the [[Melian Isles]], [[Sydona]], and elsewhere which they governed as [[Crusader states]].

Today the Order persists as a Catholic religious order and as a non-territorial federal subject of the Kiravian Federacy.

===Post-Crusades===

Line 34:

The Order was banned in the Kiravian Union and expelled from the Mainland and - more injuriously - Sydona. Its hierarchy rode out the [[Kiravian Sunderance|Sunderance]] from its historic strongholds in the Melian Islands.
