"The Law Maker of the Bluesteel Order has agreed with the Divine Regent to apply Canon Law to a limited degree to state law for the continued religious and spiritual protection of our society's moral compass. As such, Canon law is now applied to various state laws to extend the length of the religious institutions to prosecute violations of Holy Law that were previously only applicable through court trials. Furthermore, the Weapons Carry Law has been amended, and all Weapons Permits that were granted by the Violet Order or indeed any other institution save for the Bluesteel Order are declared null and void."
A summary of changes:

A summary of changes:
- Canon law now applies to speaking "favorably" of other religions, meaning a person is liable to prosecution by the Canon Law if they speak well of any other religion save for Unionism in public.
- Canon law now applies to the sanctity of life law, meaning public acts of same-sex intimacy are illegal. Furthermore, same-sex marriage are now no longer legal and will face prosecution, unless the parties involved can declare legal offspring to the state in line with the further progress and growth of the cause of Humanum. This means that as long as both partners in a same-sex couple have legal offspring, they will be tolerated to a degree.
- Canon law now applies to the Sanctity of Vow law, meaning that any and all forms of adultery, even with the consent of the spouse, are completely illegal and will face prosecution to the extents of
- Offspring Vow Law is now enacted, which dictates that bearing a child out of wedlock requires the guilty parties to engage in a marriage. If the guilty parties (one or both) are already married, the state will take custody of the child, remove it from its parents, and prosecute the parents for violating Canon and State law of adultery.
- Canon Law applies to Home Safety Law now, dictating that nobody may be arrested or removed from a religious building as long as they are praying and or fasting. This can only be lifted by the writ of arrest by the Divine Regent, who grants permission to guards to arrest a fugitive or convict who is still on the premise of a religious building.
- Canon Law applies to the Anti Jacobinism Law also, meaning that anyone who offends Nobility and is of Baronial title and below, is liable to face trial for heresy, as insulting the right of nobility is considered an affront to the Emperor's loaned divine right to the nobility.
- In all laws, females and males have been granted equal rights in eyes of the law. Custody battles over divorcing children will no longer default to the male right, but simply be granted to the wealthiest partner.
- All Weapon Permits are revoked unless issued by the Bluesteel Order.
- Weapon Permits can be requested from the Chapter Commanders and High Constable.
- Weapon Permits are granted to Imperial Advisers and State Councilmen.
- Imperial Prerogative is a new category that defines the right to bear military grade weapons and arms to anyone with direct assent by the Emperor. This also extends to the Emperor's siblings and the High Constable.
