The [[Insular Apostolic Church]] is the largest religion in the state, followed by Roman Catholicism, Coscivian Orthodoxy, Ruricanism, and Læstorianism. The Gaelic, [[Ĥeiran Coscivians|Ĥeiran Coscivian]], and [[Féinem]] populations account for most Insular Apostolic adherents, though some smaller communities, such as the Wintergen refugees of Svéntren, are Apostolic as well. Coscivian Orthodoxy in Fariva also has an ethnic character, being practised mainly by communities of Southwest Coscivian and New Coscivian descent concentrated in and around urban centres. Ruricanism is the traditional faith of the Taństem and Tańrisem peoples, and as such has contributed much to Farivan history and culture. It is also a "secondary" religion to many Christians of Kóursem and Ardóniem descent. | The [[Insular Apostolic Church]] is the largest religion in the state, followed by Roman Catholicism, Coscivian Orthodoxy, Ruricanism, and Læstorianism.

Catholicism is particularly strong in the Bérasar area, where it has deep roots planted by some of the earliest Catholic missionaries from Levantia, and has been bolstered by Levantine immigration. Many important Catholic religious, educational, and charitable institutions are located in Fariva, including the University of the Holy Cross, the Archdiocesan Seminary of Saints Basilides, Cyrinus, Nabor and Nazarius (the name of which is even more cumbersome in Coscivian), and the headquarters of the Catholic youth hockey league Our Lady of the Rink. Most Farivan Catholics belong to the Coscivian Rite, but a large minority (and in Bérasar proper, a majority) belong to the Latin Rite. Farivan territory is divided among one archdiocese (Bérasar) and two suffragan dioceses (Norvimur and Pellam), and the entire state, along with the rest of the Far Northeast, is part of the Ecclesiastical Province of Bérasar. The Archbishop of Bérasar is usually a Cardinal and has strong influence over the Kiravian Church as whole. | Catholicism is particularly strong in the Bérasar area, where it has deep roots planted by some of the earliest Catholic missionaries from Levantia, and has been bolstered by Levantine immigration.
