A country with a combination of politics and religion in history.

1. There has never been a country or period in the history of China where politics and religion are integrated. Because the basic characteristics of the integration of politics and religion are: the head of state and religious leaders are the same person, and political power and religious power are in the hands of one person; National laws are based on religious teachings, which are the guidelines for handling all civil affairs, and the people are dominated by fanatical and single-minded religious feelings. China has always been a theocracy, and there is no decent religious system. Even if there is, it has no strength to compete with the imperial court. But strictly speaking, there was a period of integration of politics and religion in Tibet before. In fact, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is not, and "worshipping God" is not a religion in a strict sense.

2. Historically, the Byzantine Empire, Russia, the Arabian Empire, India, Italy and other countries or regions in the Middle Ages all practiced the system of the integration of politics and religion. At that time, the feudal ruling class needed to use religion in order to maintain and strengthen its political rule; In order to expand their influence and compete for power, religious leaders also need to unite with feudal rulers. These two groups, who hold theocracy and political power, both compete for power and rely on each other and use it. In the history of Europe, there were situations in which religions controlled political power or feudal monarchs were leaders. For example, Byzantium is the protector of the church and the host of religious affairs; Russian czar Ivan IV abused his power to interfere in church affairs; Henry VIII of England stipulated that the church must obey the monarch and so on. The integration of politics and religion is the closest combination of religion and politics. After the modern bourgeois revolution and many enlightenment thoughts, most countries have implemented the separation of church and state, and successively abolished the system of integration of church and state.

3. At present, only a few countries, such as Vatican (Catholic Pope) and Iran (Islam), implement the system of integration of politics and religion. The United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Thailand and other countries, although religion occupies a great position, are still not countries where politics and religion are integrated, because their constitutions are either formulated by parliament or by the Federal Council.
