The people in the Union believe in expressing joy, happiness, and deep tradition. This group's Religion is very similar to Judaism. The both keep the same holy days (including Sukkot), the same religious laws, the Torah etc. Like Christianity, these people believe in the Messiah. Only to them, instead of "Jesus", the Messiah's Name is "Yahshua".
