'''Shia Theocracy''', also called '''Shi'ah Theocracy''', '''Shi'ite Theocracy''', or '''Shia Islamism''' is an ideology similarly to [[File:Muslim 2.png]] [[Islamic Theocracy]], but instead functions under the religious doctrine of ''Shia Islam'' rather than ''Sunni Islam''. It was born in Iran and Morocco in the 7th century.

==Beliefs

WIP▼
===Ali as the successor to prophet Muhammad===
Unlike their Sunni counterparts, which believe that the successor to the prophet Muhammad must be rightfully elected, Shia Theocracy believes that Ali Ibn Abi Thalib and his sons to succeed the prophet Muhammad, their reasoning is because due to Ali being related to the prophet himself, thus, Ali is the rightful successor.
===Mahdism===
In Islam, Mahdism refers to the belief in the Mahdi, an eschatologic figure considered to be the guided one or the awaited savior. According to Shia tradition, the Mahdi is the twelfth Imam [[File:Muhammad.png]] Muhammad al-Mahdi, who disappeared in the 9th century but will reappear before the Day of Judgment to rid the world of tyranny and oppression and establish a reign of justice and equity. Mahdism in Shia eschatology differs from Sunni eschatology on the belief that the Mahdi has already been born and is said to be in occultation (ghayba), while Sunnis believe that he hasn't been born yet.
==History==
===[[File:Cball-Iran.png]] In Iran===
====[[File:Nizari_state(1090-1162).png]] Order of Assassins [[File:Nizari_state(1162-1256).png]]====
'''The Order of Assassins''', also called '''The Assassins''' or Hashashins (which the English word "assassin" derives from) is an Islamic ideology that practiced Nizari Ismailism, a sect of Shia Islam, and is most famous for their practice in the art of assassination. Many thought of them as a mysterious group which contributed to ideas of Islamic mysticism and is also responsible for influencing the Assassin's Creed video game franchise.
During their rein, they conquered many strategic strongholds around Persia and orchestrated over 200 high profile assassinations.
Their main headquarters was the Alamut Castle. The levantine branch of the Order of Assassins had it's headquarters in the Masyaf Castle.

==Variants==
===[[File:
'''Twelver Shi'ism''' is the largest and most influential Shia sect. The name "Twelver" comes from their belief in the Twelve Imams, who are considered spiritual and political successors to the Prophet Muhammad.
===[[File:Nizari_state(1090-1162).png]] Isma'ilism===
'''Isma'ilism''' is the second largest Shia sect. It originated from Iman Isma'il al-Mubarak, whose Ismailists consider the real successor to Ja'far al-Sadiq. Twelver Shias, on the other hand, accept Musa al-Kadhim, the younger brother of Isma'il, as his true successor.
===[[File:Alevist.png]] Alevism===
Line 96 ⟶ 138:
===[[File:Alawite.png]] Alawites===
'''Alawite Theocracy''' is a theocracy based off the ''Alawites'', a sect of [[File:Shia.png]] Shia Islam found in (usually) [[File:Cball-Syria.png]] Syria. Alawite doctrine incorporates Islamic, Gnostic, neo-Platonic, Christian (for example, they celebrate Mass including the consecration of bread and wine) and other elements and has, therefore, been described as syncretic. Alawites hold that they were originally stars or divine lights that were cast out of heaven through disobedience and must undergo repeated reincarnation (or metempsychosis) before returning to heaven. They can be reincarnated as Christians or others through sin and as animals if they become infidels. In addition, according to the Israeli Begin–Sadat Center for Strategic Studies they believe that God might have incarnated twice; the first incarnation was Joshua who conquered Canaan, and the second was the fourth Caliph, Ali.
▲WIP
===Zaydism===
'''Zaydi Theocracy''' is a theocracy based on ''Zaydism'', the oldest branch of Shia Islam found mostly in [[File:Cball-Yemen.png]] Yemen, specifically North Yemen. Zaydis believe the leaders of the Muslim community are Fatimids, descendants of Muhammad and his daughter Fatimah. Zaydi theology puts a large amount of emphasis on ethics and human responsibility, such as rising up to depose immoral leaders.
