Today, Christians are the most persecuted believers in the world. Millions suffer from discrimination or are persecuted because of their faith - be it in the Muslim world, in totalitarian countries or in areas dominated by violence.
Often considered as second-class citizens, Christians are denied the elementary freedoms which they could claim.
The World Watch List indicates the countries ranked according to the degree of persecution of Christians. Below is the most recent update. It contains the top 50 countries. (Situation January 2010)
If the name of the country is written in dark blue, you may click on it to get more informations.
Explanation
Short explanation of the columns:
