The Mongol Empire did not have an official state religion as it was a multi-ethnic and multi-religious empire. However, its founder, Genghis Khan, was known to be tolerant of various religions and allowed freedom of worship.

Secularism is important in a multi-religious country as it ensures equality and neutrality towards all religions. It helps to protect religious freedom, prevent discrimination, and maintain social harmony by separating state institutions from religious influence. Secularism allows people of diverse beliefs to coexist peacefully without any particular religion dominating or infringing on the rights of others.

Buddhism has the most adherents in this tiny city-state at 42.5%. Islam is next at 14.9%. The rest are Christianity 14.6%; Taoism 8.5%; Hinduism 4% and Other religions at 0.6%.
