The '''Cathedral Church of the Divine Martyr Saint Beatrice''', informally known as '''Saint Beatrice's Cathedral''' (성 베앋맀 대성당) is the national cathedral of the Catholic Archdiocese of [[Ankae]]. Located in Ankae's Seochuk District, it is the seat of the [[Archbishop of Ankae]], the highest [[List of Christian primates|Catholic Primate]] of the nation of [[Metzetta]]. It is dedicated to [[Saint Beatrice]] as the name would suggest, and serves as a notable landmark, tourist attraction and symbol of [[Christianity in Metzetta]]. The [[Government of Metzetta|Government of Metzetta's]] [[Metzettan Ministry of Culture|Ministry of Culture]] have designated the building as a historic site, marking it as an important cultural asset of the empire. Since its early days the cathedral has hosted its own publishing house catering to Christian interests, primarily translations of the Bible.
== History ==
Work began on the cathedral in 1890 and was completed in 1896. Emperor [[Anru Daeku|Daeku]] approved the plans to construct the cathedral on the condition that it be designed by an [[Aciria|Acirian]] architect, as it was Acirians who first brought Christianity to Metzetta. At the time of its completion it was the largest building in [[Ankae]].


The cathedral offers holy mass for foreigners on Sundays, but all other services are performed in [[Metzi]]. The cathedral's busiest day is the 9th of August, otherwise known as Saint Beatrice's Day. The church is rumoured to house a lock of Saint Beatrice's hair, but the archbishop has historically refused to comment on such matters.

The building was constructed in the gothic revival style according to plans by [[Aciriani people|Acirian]] architect Audilio Costanari. The main building is 23m tall while the steeple reaches 45m. The interior is ornately decorated with religious artwork. The crypt of the cathedral lies directly beneath the main altar and contains the remains of nine Metzettan martyrs who attempted to convince the [[Emperor of Metzetta|Emperor]] to establish Christianity as the national faith in place of [[Chulcheo]].

The Caenish people, also known as Caens, are an ethic group native to Levantia. Originating in Gothica as a subset of the Gothic people, the ancestors of the Caens departed their homeland to raid and resettle in Great Levantia. By the beginning of the 4th century, many Caens settled permanently in and around Canaery, from which the people derive their name; their control over it was confirmed in 310 AD. Unlike some other Gothic groups, most Caens readily adopted the Catholicism of Great Levantia in the late 4th century. From there, many participated in the Crusades, and during the medieval period Caens gained a reputation for bravery in battle and competence at seafaring, bringing many into the employ of the predecessor states of Burgundie.

Caens gained full integration into Urcea in the 19th century, and many Urcean Caens consider themselves both Caenish and Urcean. Sociologists have long debated whether or not the Levantine Caens are a subsection of the larger Urcean ethnicity.
