In practice, most rulers of past principalities were seldom Christian as they allowed usury which was explicitly frowned upon by Christ Himself, if they were truly Christian they would not have allowed this or Jews to come in and abuse their populations.. as Martin Luther also writes.

What is it about usury that is a deal breaker for you and not the murder, rape or pillage they also allowed?

Regular reminder that usury is ANY interest. The current attempts to reframe it as excessive interest is mere cope for the fact that the entire world, from major international financial corporations down to Nonnas retirement account, runs on paying or being paid interest. Which is more important, your comfortable life of sin or obeying the Lord?

Because the material gain is what causes all of this which is why I prioritized on usury

The material gain from usury causes a guy with a sword to go stab people to take their stuff?

You're usually killed for a good reason and it's usually over valuables.
