Religions of the World

I thought this video was really interesting. It shows the spread of world religions over thousands of years. It also gives the major events of a religion along with its location so you can see why why certain areas adopted a particular religion. The video is short and to the point but gives a pretty good demonstration of the historical spread of various religions throughout the world. It also gave me a better idea of the popularity of other beliefs outside of the United States. The end of the video provides where wars have occurred. You can see that the dividing point between two contradicting religious areas were the places where there have been wars.
