This looks like an interesting project (and very ambitious one too!). Subcription post.
@Religions,
- Christianity: should be split into Orthodox, Protestanism, Catholicism, Nestorianism (which was quite influential for a while in Asia) and, if you like, Arianism (religion of the "barbarian" Goths and Vandals)
- Please, seriously, don't include Scientology. Not influential enough.
- Buddhism: split into the main sects of Hinayana (Sri Lanka, South East Asia), Mahayana (China, Korea, Japan, including Zen Buddhism), and Tibetan (Tibet and Mongolia).
- Islam: split into Sunni and Shia. Include Druze if you want (basically a reformist/heretical sect of Islam, quite influential in Syria and Lebanon)
