The Abbey is an Ecclesiarchy. The head of the abbey is the Brother-Engineer. There is a legislative council occupied by the heads of each department. (Mining, Logging, Farming and Construction) who govern the day to day running of the abbey.

Pre-Abbey
The church existed before the rest of the abbey. As a result of several local communities banding together to build a dedicated place of worship, the church was much smaller than it is today. The front annex and bell tower were a later addition.

After a while, the church was abandoned until it was re-discovered by Ezekiel Amor (Later to become Brother Engineer) on a expedition into Uraka lands. Noting the strategic location of the church (Between Injah and Titan's Landing) Amor realised the importance of having a central area that travelers can rest, as well as somewhere to organise the infrastructure system of the nation.
