Misleading title and description, no source

[edit]

The only way this map could be made legitimate is to cite data that show that these countries or regions have the alleged religious majorities in the designated areas as of 2020, as the map claims to show the EU in 2019 (curiously omitting the UK that was still a member state). Yet, the colours seem to indicate a religious situation from before the 1960s. As it stands, this map is unsourced misleading original research that implies that all inhabitants of the current EU still have exactly the same geographic distribution as they had before the 1960s. As a counterexample: Protestants left the church faster than Catholics in North and South Holland so that by the 1970s there were more Catholics there than Protestants, but this map still paints all of Holland red (Protestant).
