Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier2
An academic reference project's scholarly profile, tier two; its account of both the 1997 recognition and the 1998 overseas founding is corroborated below by the Caodai Overseas Missionary's own account and by diaspora advocacy sources, none of which contradict its dates or figures. NotesUsed for the 1997 recognition's outline and for the 1998 Caodai Overseas Mission's founding and nineteen-temple count.
