Hi, KA, so while this isn't a bad idea, there are a few reasons why this wouldn't work out.

First of all - and this one is my fault - the list of member species for the GSC is kind of outdated right now, though the Lustergan and Bogdouri (actually I'm going to be renaming them to the Bogadani) are still members of the GSC.

Secondly, the Lustergan and Bogadani were among some of the earliest members of the GSC so it's highly unlikely that they would secede at this point in time. Also, a large fall in public opinion of Spodism is highly unlikely since, well, the GSC is a nation who has a overwhelming Spodist majority and even the secular or non-Spodist citizens do not have many reasons to despise the state church.

Thirdly, if we're assuming that the Lustergan and Bogadani secede over a matter of religious freedom, I somewhat doubt that they would ask Eldarisia for protection since that would mean just going from religiously devout nation to another.

I don't think there's really any feasible scenario where a major GSC state (at least, one significant enough to prompt military action from the GSC) secedes and subsequently causes the GSC-Eldarisian War. I'm interested to see what other ideas you might have, though!
