Any idea why it tends to happen at the edges of the countries?
I am sure there are belts around Paris, London, Brussels… but not “bible” ones.
I see Iceland decided to fly south for the winter, and apparently religious people in Germany decided to make their own little Italy.
Hello Iceland, long time no see.
Nice, now do Vatican.
So apparently ex-Yu countries are religious to the point that they don’t need a “Bible belt”. Once again regrettable reminder of how awfully desecularized our societies are :/
Any time you see a map with soft edges like this, distrust.
The Romanian one is wrong. The religious belt is definitely in Moldavia (not republic of Moldavia, but the region in Romania called Moldavia). I don’t even think people in Transylvania are really that religious
Lol. I bet it’s a bit more than that. Especially in Turkey, Italy, Poland and the balkans.
Strong correlation, people from the south are more religious.
Iceland is that friend leaning in awkwardly from the side just to be in the group photo even though they don’t have a Bible belt
Scotland is so irreligious they had to color in the ocean
The Chalkidiki peninsula in Greece? That one’s *totally* wrong. Unless they meant to highlight the Mt Athos peninsula, and they missed it.
