Cultus imperatorius
Cultus imperatorius est genus religionis civitatis qua imperator vel domus imperatoria (enim ducum, regium, vel dux titulis eiusdem genus, etc.) colatur vel adoratur sicut messias vel semideus vel deus.
Cultus hic significat 'veneratio', non sensu hodierno atrociter pudendaque. Cultus fieri potest personae nuper assurgentis figurae Euhemerus vel identitatis nationalis (e. g. Pharao Aegyptius, Imperium Aethopium, Imperium Iaponensis) vel identitatis gentium in civitate multorum ethnium (e.g. Imperium Sinensis, Imperium Romanum). Rex divinus est (monarcha) habetur numine a suis et ministrat sicut caput civitatis vel nume? vel figura capitis religionis. Iste genus dictionis coniungit theocratiam et regnum absolutum (monarchiam absolutam).
