That was pretty impressive, although it omitted the entire southern
hemisphere.
Most notably religions that are far older than hinduism, buddhisn,
etc:
The anamist religions of Australia.
There are traces of these religions dating as far back as 60,000
Years!!!
And I note with some dismay that the vigorous & prominent religions of
South America are entirely omitted.
If this were a school project, I'd give it 6 out of 10, but a bonus
point for effort.
"Could do better"
And tuck your shirt in, lad.

And Shintoism in Japan. I think if they wanted to include all the
world's religions, they'd need a much bigger map.

But to miss out most of the southern hemisphere is a bit of an
omission, eh?
Otherwise it is well executed.
Well done, but incomplete.
Perhaps they are working on the next half as we type?

They showed xtianity spreading into North and South America, Southern
Africa and Australia. They didn't show any of the older religions in
those regions, but they didn't show any of the old religions in Europe,
the Middle East and Western Asia either.
Perhaps they were only interested in major religions that are still
practiced today.
An expanded map would be nice though.

Were that the case, they omitted Scientology, amongst other "major"
extant religions...
Perhaps their definition of 'major' does not correspond with mine.
That would not be a surprise to me to find that someone else was
possessed of a slightly different interpretation of world delusional
cults to that of mine.
It would not be the first time, and I doubt that it will be the last.
An expanded map would be nice though.
I agree.

Yes. And it would have been informative to show the distribution of the
major sects in each religion Catholics, Protestants and Eastern Orthodox
for the christians, Sunni and Shia for the Muslims, etc/

It might be informative to overlap that with a map of the major wars and
revolutions of history.
