The world keeps a record of itself. Every region's temperature, the weather over it, and any flood or drought are written down as they happen, and so, once a day, is how many people follow each faith. The statistics page is where you read them back.
Reach it from the navigation, or from a region on the map: open a region and click its temperature.
One great year, and no more. The world holds the most recent turn of the seasons for every region and discards what falls off the back. It is not a growing archive. Ask it what last cycle was like and it will tell you; ask it about the cycle before and there is nothing there.
This matters more than it sounds. The record is written as the weather happens, so it cannot be reconstructed afterwards. A region that was not being recorded has no history, and no amount of waiting will recover it. A brand new world therefore shows almost nothing, and says so.

The freezing line is not decoration. Zero is where the world turns rain into snow, so a wet strip sitting below that line is snowfall. That is why snow has no colour of its own.
Hover anywhere on the chart to read a single step: which day, how warm, what the sky was doing. Arrow keys do the same, and holding shift moves a whole day. Show the numbers gives you every day as a table, if you would rather read than look.
The days along the bottom are days of the great year, numbered 1 to 30: one full turn of the seasons. They are not the years people are counted in.
The world runs two clocks; see the map. A great year is six of your years, so this chart covers one whole turn of the seasons, and the header will have counted through six years while it was recorded.
Under the chart, a region's page lists the faiths that hold a standing there, highest first, which one leads, and its archprelate where one is seated. What a standing is and how it decays is under Religion. Each faith's name leads to that faith's own page.
A faith's page opens from any region that lists it. It shows four figures as they stand now: how many living characters follow it, who leads it (or that the office is vacant), the gold in its treasury, and how many regions it leads, with those regions listed underneath.
Followers over time is the one chart on it: one point per world day, from the day the world first counted to the latest, drawn in the faith's own colour. The world writes the count down once a day, at the same time it decays every standing, so the line moves by whole days and the day it moves on is the world day, not the day of the great year the weather chart counts in. A faith nobody follows is recorded as 0 for that day, not left out, so a line that touches the bottom is a faith that was empty and a line that is missing is a world too young to have two days to draw between; the page says so when that is the case.
What this record keeps is not what the weather record keeps: the weather is one great year and then gone, and the followers are every day since the world began.
