Audonian Christianity: Difference between revisions

{{Main|Hištanšahr}}

With the growing power of the [[Oduniyyad Caliphate]], many prominent Audonian Christian nobles and thinkers began to flee the continent beginning in 660. One such individual was Prince Artaxerxes of the [[Battganuur#Ashrafinid_Empire|Ashrafinid Empire]], who took his small army of retainers to [[Levantia]] and conquered small native polities in ca 680, establishing the Principality of [[Hištanšahr]]. The Principality would persist until the 11th century with an Audonian Christian ruling class and nobility. Though the religion made limited inroads with the indigenous peoples of the Principality who largely retained their [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] faith, the Principality nonetheless became a place of refuge of many Audonian Christians and noteworthy theologians of the 7th and 8th centuries. Audonian Christianity had several lasting impacts on the liturgy and church design of the [[Gassavelian people]] that would emerge from the Levanto-Audonian cultural exchange in Hištanšahr.
