    1. Very inaccurate map. You can do one google search and find a better one. Please do your best next time

      While the boundaries seem accurate to the best of my knowledge, maps like these are still misleading. It really suggests like every region in Africa is strongly dominated by one group while most parts are very heterogeneous.

    3. Once again,

      Dividing Christianity into sects, but not treating Islam the same way.

      (edit: The map can still say „Sunni“.)

      Secondly, the word „Orthodox“ is used by two entirely separate denominations:

      1. The Orthodox Church, officially the Orthodox Catholic Church, known in English by the exonym „Eastern Orthodox“. Almost entirely centered in Europe.
      2. The loosely-associated Churches that rejected the Council of Chalcedon in 451, and in 1965 got together and also started calling themselves „Orthodox“ or „Oriental Orthodox“. Almost entirely located in Egypt, Ethiopia, and Armenia.

      #1 is actually closer to Roman Catholic than to #2. (#1 didn’t split with the Catholics until 1054, and briefly reunified in the 15th century, so the **real** split wasn’t until 1472.)

      The Ethiopian Tawehedo „Orthodox“ Church is in #2.

      This doesn’t account for people who practice both Christianity AND African traditional faiths

      Sierra Leone is over 20% Christian and is completely green here, and that’s just the first problem I see.

      It’s really sad that all places‘ traditional beliefs just get wiped off the map almost entirely because of Abrahamic religions
