Christianity came first to the continent of Africa in the 1st or early 2nd century AD. Oral tradition says the first Muslims appeared while the prophet Mohammed was still alive (he died in 632). Thus both religions have been on the continent of Africa for over 1,300 years.

Islam is the religion practiced by most of the people in North Africa.

Explanation:

The influence of Islamic is very significant in the region of North Africa. A major part of the world of Muslims is in North Africa. Most of the zones in the history of North Africa that ranges from the Arab Berber to Ottoman occupation were affected by the African Transition Zone or the Sahel.

The result was the overlapping North African neighbors with the modern Africa nation states. Those have the cultural similarities and they are historical in nature. The region of North Africa is highly related with the region of West Asia in the realm of geopolitics that tends to form a region of Middle East North Africa in the present day.
