With roughly a 50-50 division, Islam and Christianity are equally present in Eritrea, there is only a small number of animists left.
Waking up in Asmara, the capital of Eritrea, can be accompanied by a simultaneous call to prayer from the muezzin and the sounding of the bell of the cathedral. Not surprisingly in a country with two main religions, it is remarkable how well both live together in this country. Amongst the Christians, the Orthodox Church is the largest group. They all have their own landmarks all over Asmara and, to a lesser degree, also in other parts of the country. Islam is present mainly in the coastal regions and towards Sudan, while Christians are prevalent in many parts of the highland.
