Largest Religions in History (1 AD – 2100) | Islam Will Overtake Christianity

Описание: In 1 AD, Christianity had just 500,000 followers. Islam didn't exist yet.

In 622 AD, Muhammad began preaching in Mecca. Within 80 years, 15 million people had converted — the fastest religious spread in history.

By 2100, Islam will overtake Christianity for the first time ever. Not because of war or conquest — but because Nigeria, Pakistan, and Bangladesh are having children at twice the rate of Europe.

This is 2,100 years of faith, conquest, and demographics.
