Belief Systems Spreading - Video

Here is a great video on a few of the world religions we study... Confucianism, Daoism and Legalism are not seen, neither is Jainism (pronounced Jahy-niz-uh m)... or some of the other polytheistic beliefs, but it is a great clip still... also you may find other great animated maps online as well! If you find a really good one, do email it to your teacher to share in class or on the blog!
