Islam in France
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
Since 2010 Renaud Camus has been warning of the purported danger of the "Great Replacement" (Grand Remplacement), the colonization of France by Muslim immigrants from the Middle East and North Africa, which he claims threatens to "mutate" the country and its culture permanently. “The Great Replacement is very simple. You have one people, and in the space of a generation, you have a different people.”--Sholem Stein |

Islam is the second-most widely professed religion in France behind Catholic Christianity by number of worshippers. With an estimated total of 7.5 percent of the national population, France has the largest number of Muslims in Western Europe primarily due to migration from North African and Middle Eastern countries.
