Unificationism is a monotheistic religion that was founded in South Korea in 1954 CE by Sun Myung Moon, and has gained popularity throughout the world with its most prominent presence in East Asia.  The beliefs, which are loosely based on old and new testament variations of The Holy Bible, are clarified by the Unification Church's doctrine called "Divine Principle" (see "Publications").
