The Union of Christian Nations (UCN) is a non-denominational Christian region which aims to share the good news of Jesus to build and grow the Kingdom of God and be a hub of activity for Christians on NationStates. The UCN is over 2 years old and has a well developed culture, know for being welcoming and respectful, has a number of well established institutions and norms that make the region what it is today and good relations with other regions, both religious and secular. The UCN is pacifist and neutral whilst actively engaging in interregional affairs to help build interregional peace and cooperation with religious and secular regions alike. The UCN views its theological, political and cultural diversity as key strengths and is a safe place for people to question, doubt and follow Jesus with others. The UCN is governed as a constitutional, parliamentary democracy with a fused directorial executive, with every nation being involved in the region's governance.
