Zano-diasporic syncretism
Zano-diasporic syncretism is a term of classification for religions that germinated from the fusion of Zanobian religions with that of other faiths within diasporic communities of either partial or full Zanobian origin. Such faiths chiefly developed in the continents of North and South Asteria and can be referred to as Zano-Asterian religions in that regard. This chiefly includes Embanda, Sintry, Candambly, and Tambor das Emboabas.
Zano-Asterian religions usually share various properties such as the veneration of ancestors and, more often than not, a pantheon of lesser gods or spirits beneath that of a supreme creator deity. Many of these faiths borrow and integrate from the function of Folk Soterianity, albeit skewing further beyond the Enochian baseline of Soterianity. They can also integrate spiritual and shamanistic elements from native Asterian religions, or otherwise borrow from Eurysian folklore.
