Majority Muslim countries

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nations with a Muslim majority appear in green, while nations that are approximately 50% Muslim appear yellow.

This is a list of countries which have a majority of Muslim people using data from the CIA World Factbook. Please note that sources differ on the state of Ethiopia. Arguably Ethiopia has about 50% Muslim citizens. At 45% Muslim, Guinea-Bissau nearly makes the list.

These nations total 11,883,889 square miles (20.6% of the world's land area), 1.8 billion people (29% of the world's population), and US$ 4.3 trillion of GDP on a purchasing power parity basis (8.7% of the world's GDP). Total world trade with these nations adds to over US$ 800 billion. Military spending totals over US$ 60 billion. Nations that are around half Muslim have an asterisk (*)
