'''Christianity in [[Metzetta]]''' is among the nation's minority religions, with most of the population following the national faith of [[Chulcheo]]. Less than 2% of the population affirm Christian belief, however most large Christian denominations maintain a presence in the country. While a minority faith, Christianity has been influential on [[Culture of Metzetta|Metzetta's culture]], particularly Christian wedding ceremonies. The religion has had a presence in Metzetta since 1604 when 10 Christian intellectuals arrived from [[Aciria]] with [[Fulvio Pisani]] under the orders of [[Emperor of Metzetta|Emperor]] Ingun. | '''Christianity in [[Metzetta]]''' is among the nation's minority religions, with most of the population following the national faith of [[Chulcheo]].

The first Bible published in the Metzi language was completed in 1619, this was an extremely literal version translated from an Acirian Bible rather than from original manuscripts and thus was not a particularly accurate example. However, this was a landmark moment for Christianity in Metzetta and meant the religion could spread much more easily. This version's problems were exacerbated by being written by an Acirian, Vallo Sartini, rather than a native Metzettan. This version became known as the Sartini (살디니) Bible after its author. | The first Bible published in the Metzi language was completed in 1619, this was an extremely literal version translated from an Acirian Bible rather than from original manuscripts and thus was not a particularly accurate example.
