===Minor Nations=== Even if they have never seen the light of the day, [[End Times|and never will]], there are human nations other than [[the Empire (Warhammer Fantasy)|the Empire]], [[Bretonnia]] and [[Warriors of Chaos|Northmen]]: the myst shrouded island of Albion, the Great Sultanate of Araby, Democratic City-States of [[Tilea]], Ever-warring kingdoms of [[Estalia]], Feudal Kingdom of [[Nippon]], Grand Empire of [[Cathay]], Kingdoms of Ind, the Hinterlands of Khuresh and more. While collective lore on these are less than any playable faction's, some of these factions' religious practices are known and some what interesting. *'''[[Tilea]]''' worships the Southern Gods of the [[Old World]] Pantheon, mainly [[Myrmidia]], the Goddess of War and Strategy. Tileans are sailors and pirates, so Manann, the God of Seas, is also worshipped by many. Other than them, local gods of city-states are among common worship. Like Luccan and Luccina, the founders of the City-State of Luccini, is the most worshipped God in said city (You know [[Roman Empire|Romulus and Remus]]?). As a cosmopolitan country, Tilea also been influenced by other cultures and even races, like in Tobaro, people living in the underground tunnels of the city commonly worship il Grungnio or Grungni, the Dwarf God of Miners as he known to the [[Dwarfs (Warhammer Fantasy)|Dwarfs]]. Even so, Tileans are said to be "casual" worshippers, not taking the religion so seriously, unlike the Imperials and Bretonnians. *'''[[Estalia]]''', being same as Tileans but with Spanish names, worships the Southern Gods of the Old World Pantheon, again mainly [[Myrmidia]]. But this didn't have a unifying effect on Estalians and Tileans, they have been fighting for centuries by now. Both sides claim that they are the real sons of Myrmidia. *'''Araby''' was known to be worshipping a single god in older editions, being one of the very few monotheistic nations in the world. He chose prophets among the people to teach his gospel to the Arabyans. A warrior-cult known as Dervishers is dedicated to that God, fan-named Ohrmazd (which is another name of Ahura Mazda, the God of Zoroastrianism) and said to be "too willing" to die for their god [[FAIL|which is a bit stupid because real life Dervishs (Islamic Monks) while very religious, were also pacifists and humanists]]. Another possibility would be that the Nehekharan gods might also be worshipped in Araby, as Araby is technically Nehekhara's living successor. Among the deities attested in canon venerated by the Arabyans include: ** '''the Djinn''', which are actually Daemons. ** '''Ancient deities''' older than the Nehekharan gods, promoted by another prophet known as Mullah Aklan'd, who was also Araby's first Great Sultan and unifier. *'''[[Cathay]]''' is, surprisingly, a semi-atheist country, where the Dragon Emperor commands his people to see him just as a mighty all-knowing leader without any godhood nonsense. [[Emperor|This seems very familiar, doesn't it?]] However, Big D can't control literally everyone, so cults in his name do exist in some remote regions. [[Tzeentch]] worship is also still present, and is a major problem in this country. *The Kingdoms of '''Ind''' are also called the Land of a Thousand Gods. Shit goes down in Ind because it is literally the land of a thousand gods and at least most of the gods are real and very active. They are said to be very fickle and quick to anger, judging and punishing their worshippers swiftly. So every part of the Indian life is a ritual: like if you overcook a [[Meatbread|meal]] a bit, you may be struck down by the God of Food or if you don't [[THIN YOUR PAINTS|thin your paints]], the [[Duncan Rhodes|God of Thin Paints]] may visit you at night. Leopold Riogillo, a merchant prince, notes that Indians see the tiger-headed [[beastmen]] of their land as holy spirits, yet again it is known that at least one god, the four-armed Bharmir, despises [[Chaos]]. ** '''Brahmir''' - not-Brahman (or more like Vishnu), his holy statues can scare the Warp out of Chaos-worshippers. ** '''She'ar Khawn''' - not-Narasimha, a popular deity whose eight-armed statues are found in almost every temple in Ind. ** '''Gilgadresh''' - his temple was looted by Lokhir Fellheart. *'''Amazons''', the warrior tribeswoman of [[Lustria]], worships the same pantheon of gods as the [[Lizardmen]] who are the [[Old Ones]]. Not much is known other than that. ** '''Rigg''', one of the Old Ones and the mother of Kalith, she is their goddess of war. ** '''Kalith''', the daughter of Rigg and the Elven sea god Amex, her functions and powers are unknown.
