The Ministry of Rites is a ministry of the Imperial Republic of Shireroth. Before its formation under the Third Wythe Cabinet religious affairs were mostly handled by the Imperial Court.
However, by the early 18th century, the Cult of Mors had managed to dominate the Cedrist Faith. With the loss of influence over religious affairs, it was decided to create the Ministry headed by Kian Aiomide Shahnaz, Princess of Shireroth. The new minister coordinated a series of reforms that once again enabled the Mango Throne to exercise limited control over the sects. From 1707 AN, the ministry was also faced with the difficult task of integrating the Eastern and Batavian churches into the Imperial Republic's way of thinking.
