Lusitania follows the Faith of Yaldabaoth, the "one and only absolute god". As a result, Lusitania executes people who are considered heretics and heathens.

According to the author's statement, the idea of Lusitanian army was inspired by the Crusaders and the Spanish conquest of the Incan Empire.[2]

Lusitania is also an ancient Roman province in Western Iberia, roughly corresponding to modern Portugal and Western Spain, and named after the Lusitani, a warlike Celto-Iberian tribe native of that region, who fought the Roman invasions and resisted their conquest for most of the 2nd century BCE.[3]
