Religious Diversity Index

This ranking compares religious diversity as a 0 to 1 index. A higher raw value means religious affiliation is more broadly distributed and no single religious group almost completely dominates the population. The rating equals the rounded raw value multiplied by 100.

How the Raw Value Is Calculated

The raw value is a religious-diversity index from 0 to 1. Values close to 0 indicate that one religious group almost completely dominates the population; values close to 1 indicate a very broadly distributed religious composition.

Values come from maintained Nomadino religion data, checked against public religious-demography sources, censuses, country profiles and regional comparators. For small territories without separate series, Nomadino uses derived replacements from the administering state, region and comparable population profiles.

The rating is calculated as a whole point value: raw value times 100, then rounded to whole points. A raw value of 0.59 therefore gives 59 points, while a raw value of 0.70 gives 70 points.

Higher raw values receive a higher rating. The indicator measures diversity of religious composition, not freedom of belief, secularisation, persecution risk or state religion policy; those questions are rated by separate indicators.
