The Zoroastrian religion functions as a polytheistic faith, and is spread throughout all of the greater Persian region and beyond, into parts of Assyria and Anatolia. This article documents the yazatas associated with the religion. All values are for +100% Omen Power.
All Zoroastrian yazatas can be accessed by any polytheistic nation that controls their holy site or has a specific percentage of Zoroastrian pops: 5% for Very Common yazatas, 10% for Common yazatas, 20% for Rare yazatas, and 40% for Very Rare yazatas.
Every Zoroastrian nation benefits from −5% Army Maintenance Cost.
