The year is sometime during Kievan Russia and it's Yarolslav whatever ruling. But, alas he has no religion. So what's a ruler to do when he's plum out of faith?
Go shopping.
Norse.
Hmm.. this is cool. Lots of gods. War and stuff. Pillaging is nice. But.. hey berserk.. isn't that when the guys got all naked and ran at you swinging axes?? Yeah, I'll have none of my people doing that thankyouverymuch. Next!
Judaism.
Sounds nice. Laws are good. What's circumcision? A type of prayer or something?
-whispers-
YOU WHAT TO YOUR WHAT?!? Nononononononononononono. Next!!
Islam.
Oh this is kinda cool. Check this out. They has their own mini-empire for a while. Portugal. WOW, wonder what that is.. hey, whats this bit here.. they? They.. killed people? And enslaved them? Geez guys. I know that stuff happens but.. THEY HAD AN ARMY?! Okay. Next!!
Christianity.
Nice structure. Nice churches. Nice pictures. Nice god. Nice songs. Ya know what I don't even to to see that bible thinger I think we'll fit in juuuust nice.
I base this off what I learned that when ruling one of the Kievan rulers wanted a faith for his people to follow so he sent out people to different faiths to report back. And, the beauty and I guess prettiness of Christianity drew him in and got him to pick that one to follow. Makes you wonder if man has always been this shallow?
I kid though.
