Christianity in Albania : ウィキペディア英語版 | Christianity in Albania
Christianity in Albania was established throughout the country in 325 AD. From 1100 AD, the Byzantine Empire carried out Church missions in the area. In relation to the increasing influence of Venice, the Franciscans started to settle down in the area in the 13th century. From the 15th century to the 19th century, under the rule of the Ottoman Empire, Christianity was replaced by Islam as the majority religion in Albania. A Pew Research Center demographic study from 2010 put the percentage of Muslims in Albania at 82.1%. However, the Albanian government gives the percentages of religious affiliations with only 38% Muslim, 16% Eastern Orthodox, 17% Catholic and 25% atheist or nonreligious. In the 2011 census the declared religious affiliation of the population was: 56.7% Muslims, 13.79% undeclared, 10.03% Catholics, 6.75% Orthodox believers, 5.49% other, 2.5% Atheists, 2.09% Bektashis and 0.14% other Christians.〔(Albanian census 2011 )〕 ==Eastern Orthodoxy== (詳細はEastern Orthodoxy was practiced by about 20% of Albanians within Albania.〔 However, in the 2011 census the percentage of Orthodox believers was 6.75%.〔 Eastern Orthodoxy is also practiced by many ethnic Albanians in the Balkans and Albanian communities living in western Europe, the United States and Australia. Albania is historically linked with both Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy as well as Islam. Albanians were among the first peoples of the region to receive missionaries and convert to Christianity. With the split of the Church in 1054, Orthodoxy become the religion for the Albanians inhabiting the areas under the Byzantine rule. Although Orthodox Christianity has existed in Albania for centuries, and historically constituted about 50% of the population of Albania, the first Orthodox liturgy in the Albanian language was held not in Albania, but in Massachusetts. Subsequently, when the Orthodox Church was allowed no official existence in communist Albania, Albanian Orthodoxy survived in exile in Boston (1960–1989).
