'''Hjørdist Gustafism''' is a branch of Gustafistic and differs strongly from Orthodox Gustafism. It is the second largest branch of Gustafistic branch of [[Ulvriktru]]. It was founded alongside Orthodox Gustafism in 1770, with a minor reform happening in 1785 to declare the Arch-Gothir is required to be unlanded but still inherited. The branch is headed by the Arch-Gothir Gaëtane III Jaubert-Frida and is seated in [[Caenfjord]]. It has over 40 million followers spread across the world, with largest amount of followers being in [[Kaldrbuth]], [[Federation of the Southern Coast|Federation]] and [[Norgsveldet]].

==== 1937 ====
The 1937 reformed was extremely controversial at the time, and was primary pushed by the socialist government of the [[Federation of the Southern Coast|Federation]]. The controversial reform legitimize many things traditionally been seen inconceivable such as allowing men to join the clergy as Gothirs, gay marriage, reducing barriers and restrictions to men in roles; tolerance of trans rights, and most controversially allowing to marry outside of the religion, as well many other social and political issues in line with the new socialist government. The reformed sparked fierce arguments and is the leading reason why [[Kaldrbuth]] became the leading Hjørdistic state, with debate taking place that the holy seat should be moved to [[Kaldrbuth]] outright through this was put a stop to by the Arch-Gothir for dubious reasons. Despite the resistance from the international Hjørdistic clergy community, the reform was pushed through. In the modern terms, majority of countries pay lip service to the reform many countries still favoring more traditional structure from before the reform was made.
 
=== Persecution ===
The Hjørdist Gustafism branch has been heavily persecuted during the [[Lapérouse civil war]] by the Socialists and the Rose Alliance. The persecution often motivated ethno-nationalists seeking revenge for their historical oppression by the faith. As such, they frequently burnt down temples, murder Gothirs and harassed believers of Hjørdist Gustafism. After the civil war ended, the new socialist government of the Federation instituted several policies to 'encourage secularization' of the government placed degrees of taxation on the temples.
 
==Structure==
All religious roles in Hjørdist Gustafism are matrilineal titles with the only two expectations being Fylkir and more recently the lowly Gothir, despite criticisms from scholars. The head of the branch is the Arch-Gothir, a matrilineal-primogeniture hereditary title that's been within the Jaubert-Frida since 1797. High-Gothir, being in charge of a certain nation or region. There are currently five High-Gothirs, and are selected by the Arch-Gothir for their region. The lowest member of the Hjørdist Gustafism clergy that is still authorized to give sermons being Gothir, which is selected by the High-Gothir of their country or region.
 
Gothir traditionally and as well all roles with the clergy was a exclusive reserved for women until in 19301930s reformation. Where the lower clergy, the Gothir was open to men as well and tolerated to assist within service at the temples.
