Imagine a world where Christianity never came into being. Where the gods of Rome have survived into the present day. Tensions are rising between China and the nation of Nova Roma. A cult of Isis-worshippers known as the Sons of Horus has protested Roman activity in the Middle East. The Senate has recently decided to lift the ban regarding Kee Kanuntee's theory of evolution, all while the Emperor continues to push piety as the greatest of all virtues. "One Nation, Under Jupiter" is the story of Diagoras Cinna, a journalist out to explore the impact religion has had on modern society. Diagoras travels around the city of New Antioch, interviewing the city's most pious residents, from priests to political figures to ordinary citizens. As he continues his report, Diagoras risks more and more in his quest to attack the gods. His employers question the wisdom of printing anything that would draw the Emperor's ire. His slave Servius, himself a faithful believer, begins to question his loyalty to his master. Even Diagoras' own mental condition worsens, as he suffers the consequences of living as an atheist in a world where blasphemy is a criminal offense.
