The table that begins overleaf provides a quick-reference, country-by-country listing for Christianity and its major traditions for all the countries that appear in this volume. These statistics are found in the World Christian Database (see Methodology and Sources) and all figures relate to 1970 and 2020. Small numbers are left unrounded to distinguish known small populations from zero but do not represent precise estimates.

The columns are as follows:

• • Country (name of country in English)

• • Region in which country is located

• • Total population of country (United Nations estimate, 1970, 2020) and total numbers and percentage of population in each tradition

• • Percentage mean annual growth rate, 1970–2020.

The last page of the table presents regional totals.
