1. The arrows show the spread of Christianity
2. More populated Christian settlements
3. The arrows show the path to the densely populated Christian zones
4. It means that not as many Christians settled there
B. It all comes down to customs. In the map some areas were better suited for Christianity because either not a lot of people were there or the people who were there assimilated better. For example, the North American chart show more blue because settlers were met with very little adversity. Some of the native americans fought but most of them assimilated. This is in contrast to Western Asia. The Chinese were more well rooted in their beliefs. This made it harder for others to promote other ideas and as a result the Chinese built dynasty after dynasty because of this philosophy. Clearly, regions played a huge part.
