Monotheism describes a belief system with only one deity. Examples of monotheism include Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Sikhism, and Zoroastrianism. On the other hand, polytheism describes a belief system with multiple deities. Examples of polytheism include Hinduism, ancient Greek, Roman and Norse religions, and Shintoism. Christianity is monotheistic, but believes that God exists as three persons (the Trinity). Its a bit confusing, but think of it like the sun- there is light, heat and radiation. They are all of the sun, but they are distinct. I'm happy to further explain this if you want.
