Because Portuguese and Spanish who brought it over.
How chrtianity spread in these places?
4:23 I think this video suffers from the same issues as the history of India video in regards to the spread of Islam as it basically shows Egypt flipping over from Christianity to Islam in the span of a single decade, when in reality it took centuries; with it remaining overwhelmingly Christian during the early medieval period, around half-Christian half Muslim around the time of the Crusades, and more than 3/4 Muslim during the Ottoman era.
The wider Maghreb was bit of a mixed bag as some places converted at a much faster rate, with many places bring majority Muslim within a century and others being 90-100% Muslim around the time of the Almohads.
Yes Fatimid Caliphate was less than 10% muslim.
Islamisation peaked during Ayyubids, Mamluk and Ottomans.
Yes. Many of his vids are flawed
@@king_halcyonIts not really flawed Egypt already had a large population of Muslims before the it was conquered, the prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) is said to have sent companions there to do dawah (missionary work) in Egypt. So the population was already there, once Egypt was Conquered many people began to convert to Islam in mass in a short time the Muslim population had surpassed the Christian population. Keep in mind the muslims only needed to be 51% of the nation’s population for it to be considered a Muslim majority nation.
@@Yussalim But even if it was 51%, it can't be shown in the video as purely green. Then that would be Coptic Christianity is 0%.
The other thing is that Islam as practiced in the Maghreb is ...not... quite pure Sunni Islam, more of a "Voodo Islam", especially as you get to the pagan/Islamic border.
Great effort but a few major errors.
1) You didn't show Nubia as Christian at any point even though they were very Christian for centuries, notably Makuria and even defeated two full scale Rashidun Caliphate Jihads.
2) There is no such thing as "Bantu" religion. Bantu is the largest linguistic family in Africa and encompasses numerous languages and ethnic groups as well as religions.
3) A few grammatical errors, you put "Religion's" instead of "Religions." The apostrophe is possessive, not plural. And you said "Shonghai" instead of Songhai. Maybe in your head you were thinking of "Shanghai" which is a city in China.
4.) Many of these religions that you put at the beginning like "Dahomean religions" is inaccurate because Dahomey only became a state as recently as the 17th century. Also their religion was voodoo.
5.) Some of the locations are off. For example the Dahomey should be East of the Volta River (lake), not West.
6). "Animism" is much too broad of a category as most traditional religions of Africa were within that category.
7.) West African conversion to Islam is a bit inaccurate. For example, Ghana effectively became a Muslim state in 1076. The Mali kingdoms to the south of it would have been Muslim in the early 1000s, as well as Songhai. Takrur (along the Senegal River) even earlier in the year 800. So basically Ghana would've been surrounded by Muslim states for. A giant "hole" in the green area would've been more accurate. Also I'm not sure what you consider conversion. The royal family? Or the majority of the population. Because if it's the latter then most of these places would have been converted much much much more recently in history.
He also forgot to add that the Kongo empire was Christian as well since the 15th century. Btw, I like your videos.
Furthermore he calls the ethiopian church coptic? And Bantus in southern Africa came much later
@@joaocorreia524 No they did not the earliest evidence of their being in southern africa dates to 300 ce.

Look. I understand alot of Christian blacks want to find some connection to the religion prior to white influence but you have to be honest with yourself and stop blinding yourself with wishful thinking. Southern African Bantu largely believed in a sky serpent. The Khoisan were monotheistic but also believed in many nature spirits.

Inaccurate, islam was not spread that fast, people confuse the spread of Islam with the expansion of the Islamic State,.Egypt, for example, did not become a Muslim majority until the Mamluk era, that's why people think that Islam spread with sword while in reality it did not, people accepted it slowly through centuries, not in an instant as the video shows

Forgot Kongo
"In 1491, King Nzinga of the Kongo Kingdom[a] converted to Roman Catholicism, taking the Christian name João, after coming into contact with Portuguese colonial explorers. The conversion facilitated trade with the Portuguese and increased the status of the Kongo Kingdom in the eyes of European states. Afonso I (r. 1506-43) even travelled to Europe where he studied religion. The Kongo Kingdom adopted a form of Catholicism and was recognised by the Papacy, preserving the beliefs for nearly 200 years.[2]"

And for the Arabic language it spread because people needed to understand the Qur'an, so they learned it, and Arabs also married with the north africans, if you look back at history, you will notice that all islamic kingdoms in north Africa were berber kingdoms not arab, and even now, berbers are of a large number.

Seriously, Songhai Religion (BTW, it's Songhai, not Shonghai), Serer Religion, Kongo Religion, all in the 6th Century BCE?? We barely start having Greek religious sources about that time, but you trace back all those defined cultures to so early? I'm not saying the ancestral peoples and cultures didn't exist (clarifying before someone misinterprets my words), but calling it by a name applied to a culture known way later is anachronistic and ahistorical. Peoples move and assimilate, evolve and disappear, etc. See how no-one would ever name the 10th Century central Italic religion as Roman as we know Romans didn't even exist yet, or naming 6th Century Central Mexico as Aztec.

34. That is Jesus, son of Mary. ˹And this is˺ a word of truth, about which they dispute.
35. It is not for Allah to take a son! Glory be to Him. When He decrees a matter, He simply tells it, “Be!” And it is!
36. ˹Jesus also declared,˺ “Surely Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him ˹alone˺. This is the Straight Path.”
37. Yet their ˹various˺ groups have differed among themselves ˹about him˺, so woe to the disbelievers when they face a tremendous Day!
38. How clearly will they hear and see on the Day they will come to Us! But today the wrongdoers are clearly astray.
Al-Ikhlas (112)
1. Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “He is Allah-One ˹and Indivisible˺;
2. Allah-the Sustainer ˹needed by all˺.
3. He has never had offspring, nor was He born.
4. And there is none comparable to Him.”
Al-Baqarah (2) :255
Allah! There is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him, the Ever-Living, All-Sustaining. Neither drowsiness nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who could possibly intercede with Him without His permission? He ˹fully˺ knows what is ahead of them and what is behind them, but no one can grasp any of His knowledge-except what He wills ˹to reveal˺. His Seat encompasses the heavens and the earth, and the preservation of both does not tire Him. For He is the Most High, the Greatest.
Al-Ma'idah (5):72-73
72. Those who say, “Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary,” have certainly fallen into disbelief. The Messiah ˹himself˺ said, “O Children of Israel! Worship Allah-my Lord and your Lord.” Whoever associates others with Allah ˹in worship˺ will surely be forbidden Paradise by Allah. Their home will be the Fire. And the wrongdoers will have no helpers.
73. Those who say, “Allah is one in a Trinity,” have certainly fallen into disbelief. There is only One God. If they do not stop saying this, those who disbelieve among them will be afflicted with a painful punishment.
Al-Mai'dah (5):75 The Messiah, son of Mary, was no more than a messenger. ˹Many˺ messengers had ˹come and˺ gone before him. His mother was a woman of truth. They both ate food. See how We make the signs clear to them, yet see how they are deluded ˹from the truth˺!
i.e., they were in need of food for nourishment. According to some scholars, this implies that Jesus and his mother had to relieve themselves after the food had been digested. Almighty Allah is far above depending on food or having to go to the restroom.
Ali ‘Imran (3):59
Indeed, the example of Jesus in the sight of Allah is like that of Adam. He created him from dust, then said to him, “Be!” And he was!
Ali ‘Imran (3):85
Whoever seeks a way other than Islam, it will never be accepted from them, and in the Hereafter they will be among the losers.
Az-Zumar (39):53
Say, ˹O Prophet, that Allah says,˺ “O My servants who have exceeded the limits against their souls! Do not lose hope in Allah’s mercy, for Allah certainly forgives all sins. He is indeed the All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Just identify the extent of religions we know of, not made up labels with no documental evidence.
Also, you seem to assume that when a new power settles or dominates a region (regardless of its size, population and the extent of actual spiritual control) the whole are just suddenly converts or adopts the orthodox, established religion as imposed by the authorities. Religions move more fluently, and some areas took centuries to convert successfully, never mind adopting the mainstream national faith and completely leaving behind previous beliefs and practices. All maps are questionable, in the end.
