The Renascentia ("rebirth" in Selucian) was a cultural movement in Selucia between the 14th and 16th centuries known for the renewed interest in the culture of classical antiquity and a resurgence of classical mythology and languages, coupled with progress in fields such as art, science, architecture, or historiography. Although a local movement in Selucia, the Renascentia later spread throughout the Western World. One of the main consequences of the Renascentia was a decline in the power of the Holy Apostolic Hosian Church of Terra; in Selucia the native polytheist religion experienced a resurgence, while in Artania the Luthoran Abjuration led to the independence of the Luthoran Churches.
