In 2024, Nigeria had the largest Muslim population in Africa, with around 105 million people who belonged to an Islamic denomination. Egypt and Algeria followed with 90.4 million and 39.4 million Muslims, respectively. Muslims have a significant presence in Africa, with an estimated 50 percent of the continent's population identifying as Muslim. The spread of Islam in Africa began in the 7th century with the arrival of Arab traders, and it continued through Islamic scholars and missionaries.

Since 2010, the researchers on this project have been gathering information on over 250 congregations and over 500 sites related to religious and ethnic groups who settled in several neighborhoods in the Twin Cities from approximately 1849, when the Territory of Minnesota was established, until 1924 when the federal government closed off immigration to the United States. The neighborhoods initially selected for this study fan out from the Mississippi River, the area where settlements were initially established and the corridor that connects the two cities. Thus, the river serves as the project’s geographical link. While the study initially focused on houses of worship (churches and synagogues) as a means to explore the complexity of religious life and ethnic interaction during this period in the Twin Cities as new immigrants acclimate themselves to the region, we soon realized that other sites needed to be included as well: specifically, places where these diverse people found solace among like-minded individuals, such as social clubs and ethnic/religious institutions, and places where they had to intermingle and interact with the “other,” folks whose beliefs, cultures and languages differed from theirs. These latter places include settlement houses, schools, playgrounds and athletic fields, and hospitals. As a result, the website allows exploration of a number of topics: community creation, ethnicity and identity, relationships among congregations, intra-congregational interactions, the role of houses of worship, and social class structures. Tools provided here include information on individual Christian and Jewish congregations (click above on Browse) photographs on houses of worship, and an interactive map depicting the location of congregations over time (click above on Geography). The project goal is to document for future generations the legacy of the historic neighborhoods that were once home to their forbearers.

The world's Jewish population has had a complex and tumultuous history over the past millennia, regularly dealing with persecution, pogroms, and even genocide. The legacy of expulsion and persecution of Jews, including bans on land ownership, meant that Jewish communities disproportionately lived in urban areas, working as artisans or traders, and often lived in their own settlements separate to the rest of the urban population. This separation contributed to the impression that events such as pandemics, famines, or economic shocks did not affect Jews as much as other populations, and such factors came to form the basis of the mistrust and stereotypes of wealth (characterized as greed) that have made up anti-Semitic rhetoric for centuries. Development since the Middle Ages The concentration of Jewish populations across the world has shifted across different centuries. In the Middle Ages, the largest Jewish populations were found in Palestine and the wider Levant region, with other sizeable populations in present-day France, Italy, and Spain. Later, however, the Jewish disapora became increasingly concentrated in Eastern Europe after waves of pogroms in the west saw Jewish communities move eastward. Poland in particular was often considered a refuge for Jews from the late-Middle Ages until the 18th century, when it was then partitioned between Austria, Prussia, and Russia, and persecution increased. Push factors such as major pogroms in the Russian Empire in the 19th century and growing oppression in the west during the interwar period then saw many Jews migrate to the United States in search of opportunity.
