Saudi Arabia

The state promotes atheism and has a highly controlled society, leaving little room for any religious practices. There is no known Hindu population due to the repressive regime.

North Korea

Predominantly Muslim, Somalia has a very small number of religious minorities. The Hindu population is virtually non-existent due to the lack of migration and the country’s instability.

Somalia

Yemen is overwhelmingly Muslim, with almost no religious diversity. The Hindu population is insignificant due to restrictive religious policies and ongoing conflicts.

Kiribati

The world's third smallest country by area has a primarily Christian population. Hinduism is almost non-existent here due to the nation's tiny size and isolated location.
