Where are the sacred locations for Christianity?

Answer 1

Christianity doesn't really have sacred places. The concept of a sacred place is foreign to Christianity. However, Christianity does have places that are held in special regard but only because of the events that happened there in the past, not because of anything unique about that place. These places include but are not limited to: Jerusalem, Rome, Mount Sinai, Mount Ararat, Galilee, Constantinople, and Antioch.

Answer 2

David B. Barrett's World Christian Encyclopedia (1994 update) gives an oft-cited figure of 1.9 billion Christians (or about 33% of the world population), and projected that by the year 2000 there will be 2.1 billion Christians in the world. The 2001 edition of the World Christian Encyclopedia stated there were 2.1 billion Christians in the world, or 33% of the total population. Regardless of the degree of accuracy of this figure, Christianity, if taken as a whole, is unarguably the largest world religion - the largest religion in the world. (Keep in mind that although Christianity is the world's largest religion, it is an umbrella term that comprises many different branches and denominations.)

Wikipedia lists Christianity by country as follows:
