Explanation:

Islam represents a population majority in the Middle East and is considered a major factor in almost every nation in the region, as well as some in Africa, Asia and southern Europe. There are countries with a majority Muslim population, but with a secular state, and others that adopt theocracy, a regime of government in which political and legal actions are subjected to religious dogma. The influence of Islam and its relevance to Islamic countries is enormous and quite complex as it involves historical and cultural issues within a context of disagreement and conflict. In this context, republics and monarchies must be considered.

It is estimated that the world's population now exceeds 7.6 billion, of which approximately 2.2 and 1.6 billion correspond respectively to Christians and Muslims, the two religions with the largest number of adherents in the world. Studies indicate that even in the 21st century, the Muslim religion will have the largest representation in the world in number of believers.

Globalization will empower the Muslim world is NOT a political belief of Muslims!
