Anti-Cyrinnicals

The Anti-Cyrinnicals ( listen), formally known as the Vasakh, were members of several related religious movements active in Vahe through the 19th and early 20th centuries. Anti-Cyrinnical beliefs were characterized by a fierce opposition to technology and industrialization, an emphasis on tradition, the sense of a spiritual connection between ancestors and their descendants. The Anti-Cyrinnicals were frequently at odds with the Vahian government and mainstream Vahian society at large.

Origins and early history

The beginnings of the movement can be traced to the early 19th century, during the time of Cyrin, whose inventions revolutionized Vahe.

Spread in the 20th century
