 **Oromasdism** is one of the oldest extant organized religions on [[Plateia]], as well as the oldest instance of monotheism known to mankind. It was founded by the prophet **[[Rostres]]** (//Rathustra//) in ancient [[parsan_federation|Parsa]]. Central to its theology is **[[Masdes]]** (//Mazda//), the all-good supreme god. The religion teaches a moral duality: the cosmic battle between good and evil, as embodied in the opposing spirits, being **[[Spandimanes]]** (//Spenta Mainyu//), the holy representation of Masdes, and **[[Acomanes]]** (//Aka Mainyu//), the fiend representing evil.
-According to Oromasdist theology, humans possess free will, and are called to align with truth, through the triad of //good thoughts, good words,// and //good deeds//. After death, souls are judged, so the righteous ascend to paradise and the wicked fall into torment; though Oromasdism envisions an eventual cosmic renewal and universal purification.

Fire is an important element in Oromasdism; worship is conducted through prayer, ritual purity, and reverence for sacred fire, maintained in temples as a symbol of divine presence. The primary scriptures are collected in the **Espand Sarub** (//Spenta Srava//), especially hymns attributed to Rostres. Later theological and cosmological texts developed under subsequent Parsan dynasties, when Oromasdism served as the state religion.

 Oromasdism has had significant influence on later [[Enochian religions]] and remains a cornerstone of Parsan cultural heritage. It continues to be the dominant religion within the Parsanate cultural sphere, as well as an influence on cultures around it.
