Essentially, this is a sort of brainstorming question: Say a world has many kingdoms and cultures, and each of these have magicians who can use magic, which includes things like improving physical strength and casting fireballs and the like. Knowledge that magic exists is widespread and, while perhaps not a part of daily life for many in the lower castes, generally accepted as fact considering its constant use in warfare and in the upper echelons of various societies.

In this world, each Kingdom favors a different sort of magic. Say one kingdom's people are more naturally adept in focusing the power of the elements, another has magicians that are more naturally skilled in psychic/telekinetic abilities, another has magicians that are naturally skilled in raising the dead, etc.

That being said, would the Religions necessarily be related to their favored magic, considering the very nature of magic being the ability for human beings to do things that defy the laws of physics and reality? What sorts of situations might lead to there being religions in different kingdom that are in no way or only marginally related to the magic that they favor?

To summarize: In a world where different kingdoms exist and each use magic that allows them to control and manipulate different powers, would each of said kingdoms have to have religions that are related to the magic they favor? What conditions might exist that result in religions completely or mostly unrelated to their magic?
