You can strongly see the cultural influence of Islam in Turkiye, North African and Pakistan.

Also in the US blue looks correlated with larger latinx populations, matching the much bluer populations in central and South america.

It also looks like more extreme climate weakly selects for more gender segregation - look at the more barren southern parts of South America, far north Canada, Scandinavia - but the effect of culture is clearly stronger.

You can see the Muslim populations in other parts of Europe: Albanians in Albania, Kosovo and Western half of North Macedonia. In Bosnia the Bosnian parts are more red as well, Northern and Eastern Serbian parts are lighter:

Serbs are Orthodox Christians, Bosniaks are Muslim and the minority Croatians are Roman Catholics historically.

If you think the weather in the Amazon isn’t extreme, I’ve got brews for you.

Edit: news, not brews, but leaving out there in case you’re keen on ayahuasca.
