North Africa
The countries that constitute North Africa are Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, and Mauritania.
The ancient history of Christanity in North Africa was vibrant, rich, and deeply rooted for five centuries right after Jesus’ ascension. Jesus’ disciple Philip landed in Carthage (modern-day, Tunis, Tunisia) and Mark arrived in the Southeast in Egypt. North Africa produced the 14th pope by the end of the second century (190 AD), Victor I. After several centuries of being a region that brought about Christian innovation and thought, it was hard to trace after the 7th century, because they weren’t allowed to outwardly practice.
An ancient crossroads of civilizations, history is everywhere. Roman ruins are scattered across the land. Even the most cosmopolitan urban centers are just a stumble away from winding historical districts that pulse with the activity of daily life.
Multicultural and forward thinking, many young people in the region feel jaded with the religious, political, and economic status quo. This has fostered a new spiritual openness as North Africans search for lasting hope, meaning, and purpose.

The vast Sahara desert pushes much of the North African population to the coastlines.
Libya is one of the more difficult countries for westerners to get into as missionaries. The people largely identify as Sunni Muslims. Before Islamic conquerors invaded Libya in the seventh century it was home to one of the oldest Jewish communities, dating back to 300 BC, but during World War II the Jewish community was put under facist through the Italian troops and then anti-semitic laws under German rule.
Morocco was inhabited by Berber tribes, but was invaded by Arab Muslims in the 7th century and forced the local people to adopt Islam. Today, it restricts human rights significantly being known for not allowing people to peaceful expression, assembly, or association. Prostelatizing any religion other than islam can result in l15 years imprisionment.
Mauratnia was the last countr in the world to abolish slavery in 1981 and did not criminalize i until 2007. Drought, poverty, lack of education, unemployment make life hard for the people in this country with only half mauritanians being literate. Only Muslims can be citizens in this country. The government is hostile toward Christianity and Christian materials like the bible are prohibited to be distributed.
