newly formed Base 19.2 Shadow Cult. It preached the word of counting in base 10. The efforts of the church led to a dominance of base 10 counting amount citizens of Bizberg, ushering in a new counting era.

Even after the downfall of the Base 10 Cathedral, people in Bizberg still continued to use the base 10 system, due to the reliance on it in Bizberg's early years. It is suspected that soon, the Base 19.2 Shadow Cult will become more popular than the base 10 practices, but that day has yet to come as of writing.

## History

### Early Years

In 6042, the Base 10 Cathedral was founded by religious fuckboy Shaboingboing Eldergottsby, who believed in dark circle energy (often generated by dark knitting holes) and the heart of the cards. Shaboingboing also believed that the best way to count was the base 10 counting system, which Idk I think is kinda lame.

The floor of the original Base 10 Cathedral was often littered with Yu-Gi-Oh runoff from the giant Yu-Gi-Oh bag, a sentient deity-bag hybrid that openly supported the base 10 counting system. In the early days, people would prey to the Yu-Gi-Oh bag to keep the poor folk of King Jagentie VII's sector of Bizberg alive. This is, ironically, how Jerg survived to begin the Base 19.2 Shadow Cult.

### Jerg

In 6044, Jerg received donations from the church and the Yu-Gi-Oh bag. One year later, he began farming with the money accrued from the Base 10 Cathedral and gave his profits back to the community. The efforts of Jerg led to the spread of the Base 10 Cathedral throughout King Jagentie VII's sector of Bizberg.

### Downfall

From 6044 to 6050, the church focused on expanding their word to other sectors of Bizberg, but they had very little success. When efforts to convert other sectors failed, they began resorting to violence. In 6051, other churches with different practices of base counting started cropping up in King Jagentie VII's sector of Bizberg.

6052 was the day that the Non-10 Base Eradication began. Almost every non base 10 church was destroyed. This worsened relations between the church and literally everybody else.

In what is known now as The Big Year, the Free Counting System Rebellion (FCSR) began, which was a campaign against the Base 10 Cathedral. Eventually, in some other year, the Rebellion succeeded, and the Base 10 Cathedral was destroyed, along with the Giant Yu-Gi-Oh bag. Both were burned in a fire, and the ruins can still be visited if you get the tourism season pass.

## Architecture

### Early

The first Base 10 Cathedral was built with 8 windows and 2 doors, with 10 pillars on the other three walls. The walls were painted a dark purple, and on top of the building was a giant statue depicting the number 10. There was also a skylight that let the Giant Yu-Gi-Oh bag dump it's runoff into the cathedral.

### Modern

Modern Base 10 Cathedrals often blend in with other surrounding buildings to avoid being burned by the still active FCSR. Therefore, the structure of Base 10 Cathedrals varies depending on location.
