Very interesting show. I just wonder what it was supposed to demonstrate… in your mind
I would put one major objection: it does not show the effects of immigration or conversion, thus does not reflect reality. Just to give you one example: Islam is the second religion in France (and it has nothing to do with a minority!), thus the map should be checkered blue and green (with some red, purple and yellow dots), as well as there should be some green dots added in Asia, some blue dots in Egypt and so on…
Wars precisely occur because some people want the map (or their part of the map) to be of one single colour
