The Gallows Town church.
Christianity was a prominent world religion centred around Jesus Christ.[a]
Practice in Gallowmere
Christianity was practiced in the kingdom of Gallowmere during the 13th and 14th centuries (and likely earlier as well). The settlement of Gallows Town had a small church where its people gathered in worship. In the nearby graveyard, the graves of many dead were marked by wooden crosses. There was also a prominent statue of an angel positioned roughly in the middle of the graveyard.
Practice in Victorian London
The people of 19th century London still practiced Christianity. This was most evident in the Whitechapel graveyard which featured the statue of an angel and where the coffins bore crosses on their front.
Notes
- ↑ Christianity and Jesus Christ are never directly mentioned in the MediEvil games. However, beginning with the second game, real world locations and people are referenced, which shows us that the MediEvil world is similar to ours in some respects. Additionally, many Christian symbols appear throughout the games, necessitating the existence of the religion (or one like it) in the world of MediEvil.
