Indigenous religions are belief systems and spiritual practices that have developed organically within distinct cultures and communities. They often involve a deep connection to the land, ancestors, spirits, and natural elements. These religions are usually rooted in oral traditions and have been practiced for generations prior to the arrival of colonizers or the spread of mainstream religions.
Indigenous religions today are especially threatened by colonization, forced assimilation, and religious persecution. These practices have led to the erosion of traditional beliefs, customs, and knowledge systems among indigenous communities. Additionally, environmental degradation and loss of ancestral lands contribute to the challenges faced by indigenous religions.

In the 1700s, the primary religions in Africa were Indigenous African religions, Islam, and Christianity. The specific dominant religion varied by region, with Islam being prevalent in North Africa and along the Swahili coast, while Christianity gained popularity in regions influenced by European colonial powers. Indigenous African religions also continued to be practiced by many communities.
