Chidaoism is a Jingdaoese theological idea that arose in the late 1670's. It states that the Chidao Emperor is either an incarnation of the supreme god in Catologism, Cato, or even a greater supreme god. The idea arose when unlike his direct predecessors, the Chidao Emperor remained on the throne for a very long time and the empire experienced a long period of peace and prosperity. Chidaoism is closely related to the Tianchaodao which predates the birth of the Chidao Emperor. While the Tianchaodao states that the gods must be served through worshipping and obeying the Heavenly Light, Chidaoism states that this Heavenly Light, the Chidao Emperor, must be worshipped and obeyed as a goal in itself. Varieties of Chidaoism:

Different branches of Chidaoism

Eschatological Chidaoism

This branch of Chidaoism states that the ascension of the Chidao Emperor marked the beginning of the end times of Micras. Upon the death of the Chidao Emperor, all of creation will be lost with him.

Eigthth Day Chidaoism

This branch of Chidaoism states that with the ascension of the Chidao Emperor, the end times which were heralded in with the Jexit Kingdom have ended and the Chidao Emperor who is the incarnation of Cato will rule over a prosperous Jingdao for all eternity.

Zurvanite Chidaoism

A Euran heresy propagated by the intermingling of Zurvanite folk belief with the residual vestiges of Emperor worship brought to the irradiated wastes of southern Eura by the survivors of the Jingdaoese expeditionary force banished into the desert after the Euran War. Holds that the outcome of that conflict will be avenged by the Chidao Emperor's conquest of the entire continent.
