Scandinavian paganism was dominant in Sweden, the most populous country of the Scandinavian Peninsula, until the 11th century. The people who worshiped the Æsir gods in the temples centered in Uppsala completely changed their understanding of religion with the influence of Christianity in the 11th century. The country’s laws prohibited the worship of other gods until the 19th century. With the Protestant Reformation in the 1530s, the country severed its ties with the Roman Catholic Church. After this period, Lutheranism dominated the country. Shaman Sami communities in the north also adopted Protestantism through Lutheran missionaries. The spread of secular churches in the country, where it was forbidden to leave religious sects until the Freedom of Religion law in 1951, caused the people to begin to lose their ties with the church. Today, while 64.6 percent of Sweden is affiliated with the Lutheran Church, only two percent of members attend Sunday services. Apart from Protestants, the country also hosts a Catholic population of 92 thousand people, an Orthodox population of 100 thousand people and a Muslim population of 500 thousand people.
