'''Christian Theocracy''' is a culturally right-wing ideology occupying the upper center section of the Authoritarian scale of the political compass, depending on the type of Christianity (Calvinists on the far right, Catholics center left, etc.). It believes that a strong, Christian government is necessary for the salvation of mankind. They do not want a separation of church and state, moderates believe in living according to the
==History==
There were numerous states in history that adopted Christianity as their state religion.
The New Testament gives no guidelines for governing a nation, but the Old Testament does describe the existance of theocracies under men such as [[File:Moses.png]] Moses, [[File:Joshua.png]] Joshua, and King Josiah (for more information, see [[File:JewTheo.png]] [[Jewish Theocracy#History|Jewish Theocracy § History]]).
For more information on the histories from the perspective of specific denominations, see the "History" sections of:

Non-denominational Christianity refers to Christians that don't adhere to, or follow a specific denomination of Christianity.
▲Chalcedonian Christianity is the umbrella term for the christian groups that accepted the Council of Chalcedon in 451 AND the Council of Nicea in 325, the common term for what can be considered pre-schismatic christianity from which both Catholicism and Orthodoxy originate from. On the council it was decided that the nature of Christ is dual, both human and divine: '''Dyophysitism.''' It encompases modern Catholicism and Orthodoxy, aswell as the protestant denominations that recognise the two councils. In some ways, it can also be a term that refers to a potential re-union of Catholic and Orthodox churches back into a single Church, a potentially pejorative term: Cathodoxy, that some may embrace as a christian identity as opposed to just Catholicism and/or Orthodoxy.

*Can be holding a cross or Eucharist materials such as bread and wine.
* Is NEVER late for Bible study club meetings.
* If denomination-specific balls are shown, he will represent non-denominational Christianity and will try to act as a mediator between them
==How to Draw==
{{Flag|Christian_flag.svg}}
The design of Christian Theocracy is based on the Christian Flag adopted by the United States Federal Council of Churches, designed by Charles C. Overton in 1897. The flag is white (for purity and peace), with a blue field (faithfulness, truth, and sincerity) and a red cross (the sacrifice of Christ).
