How has the geogÂraÂphy of reliÂgion evolved over the cenÂturies, and where has it sparked wars? This interÂacÂtive map sumÂmaÂrizes in a brief 90 secÂonds the hisÂtoÂry of ChrisÂtianÂiÂty, Islam, HinÂduism, BudÂdhism, and Judaism. It shows where & when each reliÂgion origÂiÂnatÂed, how the reliÂgions someÂtimes came into conÂflict, and how they spread across the globe. This short hisÂtoÂry lesÂson is proÂduced by a site called Maps of War, which feaÂtures othÂer interÂacÂtive lessons, includÂing The ImpeÂrÂiÂal HisÂtoÂry of the MidÂdle East and AmerÂiÂcan LeadÂerÂship & War. Enjoy.

would be loveÂly to see one which includÂed the oldÂer culÂtures, AboÂrigÂiÂnal, Mayan etc.
Where’s the modÂern inforÂmaÂtion about the war Islam is wagÂing right now? 9/11 and all the terÂrorÂism since then should not be left out…it’s exactÂly how Islam startÂed, and it’s what Islam is now doing again.
i want a map that shows the major empires of the earths hisÂtoÂry. that would be a very comÂplex but enterÂtainÂing show
