Does anyone know what the dashed red line that roughly encloses the top-left quadrant of the map refers to?
The original publication that the diagram was produced for is available[1] (for purchase) from Cambridge University Press.

- jka 7y agoThank you; I saw that label but was unclear whether it referred to the red-coloured area, or the area within the (also red) dashed line. In that case I imagine that the red-coloured area is former Soviet states (?).
- gus_massa 7y agoThe red are is probably the ortodox christian region.
- jka 7y agoThat'd make sense too, and would match the 2017 version of the diagram further down the page. Azerbaijan and Georgia seem to have very different religious profiles though, which could be a counterpoint. It's a shame the diagram doesn't have a key associated with it (at least on Wikipedia) :)
