Gaeanism (Ozian: Գւաժոն tr. Gaeazhon) is an animistic and monotheistic religion indigenous to the O Strait region with unclear origins. Scholars believe the religion is at least 8000 years old and was born after the Libian Fre'zhi cultures clashed with Ennorath Praemian cultures. Before the time of Zhadae Sankta, it was a popular religion that spread through oral tradition among the first Ozian tribes with a focus on women. When Revia assumed her role as Zhadae Sankta in 921 BCE, she wrote an autobiographical account of her ascension to power to all the way until her death along with philosophies, laws, and traditions. She also commissioned several religious leaders to write down oral traditions at the Grand Meet of Ozi'pol. Although schisms in the religion existed from 1000-1900 CE, it managed to close all the schisms with the liberation of Ozia after the Great War. Today, 650 million people consider themselves Gaeanist, but the religion only has significant populations among St Oz, the Diamond Coast, and Ozian communities.
