Most Chuvash people are Eastern Orthodox Christians and belong to the Russian Orthodox Church. After the Russian subjugation of the Chuvash in the 16th century, a campaign of Christianization began. Most Chuvash did not convert until the mid-19th century. They retain some pre-Christian shamanism traditions in their cultural activities.
