How many Christian countries in the world?

Answer 1

In the middle ages European (and other) countries generally espoused the religion of their ruler.

Nowadays religion is viewed as a more personal choice, and few countries which used to be avowedly Christian can - or would want to - claim to 'follow' any particular religion.

Islam tends to be a religion which states openly 'follow'.

Answer 2

None. Due to the nature of freedom of choice, there is no entirely christian labelled country.

Answer

Many countries have adopted their laws and parliament based primarily on Christian principles and in that way can be described as predominantly Christian. Also, if the majority of the population are either church-going Christians, or regard themselves as believers will suggest a Christian country. As an example, in the UK in the last census, around 80% of the population declared a belief in God, despite only around 10-15% of the population attending church. There are many muslims, Buddhists and Hinduss liviing in the UK, but, as the majority of the population is Christian, the country can be classed as Christian. In the same way, Saudi Arabia is an Islamic state, based on Sharia Law but there are small numbers of Christians living there.

If this is the definition of a Christian Country then all the countries of North and South America and Europe are Christian. Many countries in Asia and Africa are also Christian, as are most countries in Australasia - notable Australia, New Zealand and many South Pacific island countries.

Answer 4

Bears are mammals of the family Ursidae. Bears are classified as caniforms, or doglike carnivorans, with the pinnipeds being their closest living relatives. Although there are only eight living species of bear, they are widespread, appearing in a wide variety of habitats throughout the Northern Hemisphere and partially in the Southern Hemisphere. Bears are found in the continents of North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.

Common characteristics of modern bears include a large body with stocky legs, a long snout, shaggy hair, plantigrade paws with five nonretractile claws, and a short tail. While the polar bear is mostly carnivorous and the giant panda feeds almost entirely on bamboo, the remaining six species are omnivorous, with largely varied diets including both plants and animals.

With the exceptions of courting individuals and mothers with their young, bears are typically solitary animals. They are generally diurnal, but may be active during the night (nocturnal) or twilight (crepuscular), particularly around humans. Bears are aided by an excellent sense of smell, and despite their heavy build and awkward gait, they can run quickly and are adept climbers and swimmers. In autumn some bear species forage large amounts of fermented fruits which affects their behaviour.[1] Bears use shelters such as caves and burrows as their dens, which are occupied by most species during the winter for a long period of sleep similar to hibernation.

Bears have been hunted since prehistoric times for their meat and fur. To this day, they play a prominent role in the arts, mythology, and other cultural aspects of various human societies. In modern times, the bear's existence has been pressured through the encroachment on its habitats and the illegal trade of bears and bear parts, including the Asian bile bear market. The IUCN lists six bear species as vulnerable or endangered, and even least concern species such as the brown bear are at risk of extirpation in certain countries. The poaching and international trade of these most threatened populations are prohibited, but still ongoing.
