Each post-religious enlightenment godhead calls for and justifies the exercise of sovereign power, according to its manifestation of the three ideals.
The past 370 years continue the so-called Wars of Religion.
The Peace of Westphalia (in 1648 AD) is the starting point.
Post-religionist enlightenment godheads are conjured.
Then they battle among one another.]
