Natural borders such as rivers and mountains played a huge role on the spread of religions in Afro-Eurasia between 1200-1450. In India, borders defined by the Himalayas in the north and ocean to the east and west allowed Hinduism to expand for centuries. Natural borders allowed religions to flourish in their environment.

Geography/environment between 1200-1450 stopped the spread of some religions. For example, the map shows a divide between Buddhism and Hinduism where the Himalayan mountains are, as well as in Ethiopia, where the map shows a Christian community that is separated from the Islamic world by physical barriers. The Himalayas act as a great physical barrier that would have stopped the spread of religions, such as Islam, from further encroaching on Hinduism in India, and Ethiopia's geographical isolation from the Islamic world meant that there wouldn't be any reason to convert from Christianity to Islam.

Geography had a negative impact of the spread of religions between 1200 and 1450. Features like rivers, mountains, and oceans were a main reason these religions could only spread so far.

geography played a big role on slowing the spread of religions in 1200-1450.  for example all of the natural land forms like mountains and bodies of water blocked people from getting to other places because they did not have the technology to get through those challenges quickly.  that is the same for the environment people that have adapted to different places might move slower in new places.

As religions became larger and more pronounced from 1200 - 1450, trade allowed for conversion without coercion. The trade routes linked foreign products, and as these products traveled, they sparked the ideas of the foreign religions. The travels of Ibn Battuta, Zheng He, and Marco Polo are good examples of how religions and cultures could cross border lines. The map shows how the trade routes of East Asia allowed for Islam to travel to Africa and parts of Europe. Seen in Marco Polo's travels, trade routes let Polo travel from Italy to Uzbekistan, and China to Myanmar. Spreading his ideas as well as letting him gain knowledge of the outside world.

Though both Christianity and Islam spread from 1200 - 1450, with evidence from the given map, it provides evidence that Islam remained solid as a structured religion while internal conflicts broke Christianity apart. Islam spread through trade and geographical location. Unlike Islam, Christianity separated into Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. Spreading respectively to the West and the East. As shown in the map, Christianity split however, there were Germanic tribes that took in their ideas and added their culture to the mix. As these three practices of Christianity spread through Afro-Eurasia, they spread in sections and never intermixed. As a structured religion, Islam was able to spread throughout Afro-Eurasia, whereas Christianity seemed unable to advance out of Europe with only small specs in Africa.

Trade in 1200-1450 allowed for further expansion of religions such as Islam, as merchants brought over a new set of ideals.

Islam was a religion that was extremely appealing and attractive to merchants since there were numerous advantages that accommodate Muslim merchants. Arabia was prominently active in global commerce and was one of the most important trading sites.

Geography limited a religious expansion between 1200-1450. Natural borders such as bodies of water and landmasses kept people of different religions separated and contained within their own region.
