While legally speaking, the Fiannan democracy does not grant special privileges or legal advantages as an expression of favoritism of Catholicism within the Commonwealth. This does not mean it is widely present in the social and and cultural fabric, widespread Catholic institutions such as Catholic schools and hospitals along with cultural traditions such as Christmas, Easter, and Shrovetide make it widely present in everyday life, and also leads to a very involved Catholic church and those who promote Catholic social teaching within the political process. | |||
Like Catholicism, all religions are given religious freedom to practice their religion and participate in public life within the nation given it provides no threat to the safety of the nation and its citizens. Among the minority religions include the Levantine Protestants, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, however among them, only Levantine Protestantism holds a number within the double digits. | |||
===Family Structure=== | ===Family Structure=== | ||
The Catholic Church teaches that the family is the fundamental unit of society and that strong, healthy families are essential for a thriving society. Catholic teachings also emphasize the importance of marriage as a lifelong union between a man and woman, and the role of parents in raising and educating their children. These values are reflected in the laws and policies of Fiannria, in prioritizing support for families and marriage. Widespread Family networks and intergenerational homes remain prevalent features of Fiannan society even today. | |||
Civil Unions for Homosexuality is permitted in law, but not mandated to be performed by any church, and adoption laws vary within the Commonwealth on same-sex couples adopting. | |||
Contraception and abortion are often controversial but little discussed topics in Fiannria, limited, circumstance based abortion is permitted in Fiannan law and contraception has had little federal government involvement outside of ensuring safety of any drug-based contraception. These two factors occasionally come up in the national conversation to become political talking points debated on the national stage. But more often than not it is left to the Lann's of Fiannria/ | |||
