Religions Distribution
The distribution of religion in Southern Europe is caused by the immigration from other countries around the world, religions also started on the Euro-Asia continent to begin with, making it have a very diverse amount of people with different religions. Certain religions such as Catholic, Christian, and Muslim are all well populated there as to how Syrians and Africans who believe in the Islamic, Catholic, and Christian religion are fleeing from their countries due to civil wars and terrorists taking over major parts in their country. Religions such as Bhuddhism, Jewish, Catholic, and so on so forth are there to either have luxurious lives or to see the scenery, but some might be leaving their countries to escape from loan sharks or even bigger and worse organizations such as loan sharks.
