I'm not sure what the green is vs the red. I would assume African cultures don't support it mostly because it seems unlikely that they developed the same arbitrary (religious) surgery. That would however imply that Europe is a lot more supportive of circumcision than I would have expected. Either way I'm surprised.

Red is 90โ€“100% circumcised. Green is 0โ€“9%.

What do you think are the major religions in the continent of Africa? Traditional religions take up less than 10% of religious belief. Yes, less than 10% for all of them combined

That's fair. I forgot that we colonized them a little bit less than respectfully.

It's mostly majority Muslim countries in red with the exception of the Philippines, South Korea, and the US
