Religious Composition by Country, 2010-2050

Note (June 2025): Religious composition estimates in this table are based on 2010 baseline numbers that have since been updated. Please refer to our 2025 report “How the Global Religious Landscape Changed from 2010 to 2020” for the latest 2010 and 2020 religious composition estimates. New projections past 2020 are not yet available. Refer to the 2025 report, methodology and interactive table for more detail.

The religious profile of the world is rapidly changing, driven primarily by differences in fertility rates and the size of youth populations among the world’s major religions, as well as by people switching faiths. This sortable data table details the estimated religious composition of 198 countries and territories for 2010 to 2050.

See “The Future of World Religions: Population Growth Projections, 2010-2050” for more information on these projections, or download the data.
