Why did Christianity persist for far longer as a relevant religion in Egypt, the Levant and Mesopotamia for far longer after the Islamic conquests compared to the Maghreb and Libya, where Islam quickly became the religion of >90% of the population? Even as recently as 100 years ago Christians were still 20% of the populations of Iraq, Syria, Egypt and Jordan, 10% of Palestine's and a majority of Lebanon's, while anywhere in North Africa west of Sallum you'd struggle to find a single Christian who wasn't a French/Spanish/Italian colonist or a native who had recently converted from Western missionary efforts.

>>18467648that's probably it, MENA christians were basically to muslims what jews were to europeans
>>18467635Egypt, the Levant and Mesopotamia were far more christianized by the time the Arabs came, so there was a huge entrenched population that was far more useful as tax-payers of the Jizya. By contrast, Christianism in the Maghreb had a lot more tenous grip, with a lot of heresies like Donatism or Monotheism being far more popular,
>>18467635Judeochristianity in the Maghreb existed only in greek and latin settler colonies by the coast and these were all displaced by berbers and arabs alikeJudeochristianity in the mashriq however was practiced by the authoctonous, many of wish actually assisted the mujahideen
>>18467716Uh oh, someone call the mullah, his dancing boy has got a hold of his smartphone again
>>18467635The muslims actively killed off Christians in north Africa. And in the Levant the beoudin population exploded after the 50s
>>18467724why would they kill off tax payers? seems unlikely
>>18467727Because it did not happenMass killings and expulsions are a judeochristian thing mostly, there are no judeochristians in the maghreb because the only ones that were were latin and greek settlers that left when berbers and arabs reclaimed it

>>18467635They genocided the native roman population of modern Tunisia as they didnt accepted the Dhimmi status. Large cities like Carthage and Utica, all seat of bishops, were torn down to ash and disappear from history

>>18468591You mean the colonizers went back to Italy and Greece

>>18467716>JudeochristianityNo such thing>in the Maghreb existed only in greek and latin settler colonies by the coast and these were all displaced by berbers and arabs alikeThe Berbers were Christians. The Romano-Berber kingdoms were all Christian, the Numidians before them were Christian, Altava, Aurès, Masuna which are all attested to, were Christian. >in the mashriq however was practiced by the authoctonous, many of wish actually assisted the mujahideenThere is literally no evidence for this. The Egyptians actively resisted Muslim rule through multiple revolts and inviting a Roman army into the region to expel them.>>18467742>and arabs reclaimed itThey reclaimed Africa from the Africans?

North Africa had more fanatical sects of Islam that force converted them to extinction. Like the kharijite rebels, Bantu hilalian invaders and the Almohads.
>>18467635Almohads forced religious minorities in the Maghreb to convert to Sunni Islam. That's why Maghrebis are homogeneously Sunni.
