AnswerThere is no intrinsic reason for either monotheism or polytheism to 'win'.

Which religion spread the farthest Hinduism or Buddhism?
Hinduism is more populous, but Buddhism is found in more different places and practiced by more diverse groups of people.It is important to note here, the difference between active proselytizing and passive spreading. In the case of Hinduism, the religion has not been actively proselytized outside of India for nearly 1500 years. That Hinduism has spread outside of India (to far off places like Fiji or Guyana) is because the British Empire transported Indians outside of India. There are more Hindus than Buddhists because India is more populous than all Buddhist majority countries combined. Conversely, Buddhism actively proselytized and converted vast swathes of people in different countries and continues to try converting others. In fact, most places outside of India that were once Hindu-majority as a result of Hindu proselytism became Buddhist-majority through Buddhist proselytism.
Who are the people that try to convert others to a particular religion?

What is the reaction of federation of Islamic organisations in Europe concerning the banning of hijab in France?
The hijab is not banned. It is a quite common sight in the streets or shops in French cities. The niqab and the burkah are. That has been widely accepted: with great favor by the mainstream French population, which is defiant towards signs of proselytism; but also quite positively by a great number of the Muslim faithfuls, who in their majority deem full-face veils as inadapted and not part of their tradition. Muslims of North-African descent have traditionally worn less conservative scarves and veils and most of them are not comfortable with full-face veils, which they see as a statement against mainstream society but not as a evidence of true faith.
