Home›Historians, Ethnographers & Scholars of Religion›NationalityBrowse ByNationalityThis page groups historical figures by nationality, the country or people they are identified with. Wikipedia defines nationality as "the legal status of belonging to a particular nation," though for figures who lived before modern states existed the atlas records the closest historical equivalent. Browsing this way lets a visitor see every notable figure from one country or region gathered together.FactsNationalityConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedHistorical Figures 1NationalityFilter Results20 entriesTraditionAllAncient Greek Religion (1)Christianity (5)Islam (4)Judaism (2)Roman Religion (1)Shinto (1)EraAll-484 to -425 (1)1066 to 1081 (1)110 to 180 (1)1179 to 1241 (1)1524 to 1579 (1)1529 to 1585 (1)1539 to 1616 (2)1573 to 1647 (1)1578 to 1650 (1)1602 to 1680 (1)1790 to 1832 (1)1802 to 1884 (1)1811 to 1882 (1)1822 to 1855 (1)1823 to 1900 (1)1825 to 1910 (1)1832 to 1918 (1)1842 to 1910 (1)1851 to 1930 (1)1854 to 1941 (1)1863 to 1963 (1)1865 to 1936 (2)1869 to 1937 (1)1877 to 1947 (1)1886 to 1951 (1)1887 to 1939 (1)1888 to 1938 (1)1895 to 1985 (1)1897 to 1982 (1)1898 to 1956 (1)1898 to 1986 (1)1899 to 1981 (1)1904 to 1987 (1)1907 to 1986 (1)1907 to 1998 (1)1908 to 1984 (1)1909 to 2005 (1)1919 to 2016 (1)1926 to 2014 (1)1927 to 1984 (1)1931 to 2015 (1)37 to 100 (1)56 to 120 (1)973 to 1050 (1)Place of ActivityAllAfghanistan (1)Australia (1)Avignon (1)Basel (1)Berkeley (1)Berlin (1)Bremen (1)Bristol (1)Cairo (1)China (1)Colombo (1)Connecticut (1)Cusco (1)Finland (1)France (2)Germany (1)Greece (1)Hong Kong (1)Iceland (1)India (2)Indiana (1)Irkutsk (1)Italy (1)Jerusalem (1)London (1)Massachusetts (1)Mexico (1)Montana (1)Paris (2)Peru (1)Romania (1)Rome (1)Russia (2)Samos (1)Spain (2)Stirling (1)Switzerland (1)Tehran (1)United Kingdom (1)United States (4)Washington (1)West Africa (1)Zurich (1)GenderAllFemale (1)Male (20)HistoricityAllHistorically attested (20)Veneration StatusAllHistorically Significant but Not Venerated (15)Officially Recognized or Venerated (7)Manner Of DeathAllAssassinated (1)Died of natural causes (6)Disputed (1)Executed (1)Revered InAllChristianity (5)Hinduism (1)Islam (4)Judaism (1)Shinto (1)Wicca (1)Test ResultAllDebunked (1)Area (sq km)All377,975 (1)22,402,200 (1)CapitalAllBeijing (1)Berlin (1)Bern (1)Bucharest (1)Cairo (1)Helsinki (1)Lima (1)London (1)Madrid (1)Moscow (1)New Delhi (1)Paris (1)Reykjavik (1)Rome (1)Tehran (1)Washington DC (1)Dissolution or End YearAll1991 (1)End YearAll146 BCE (1)Income GroupAllHigh (1)Independence or Founding YearAll1922 (1)1947 (1)LandlockedAllNo (1)PopulationAll122,587,000 (1)293,047,571 (1)Population at PeakAll148,000,000 (1)RegionAllThe Aegean and eastern Mediterranean (1)Start YearAll800 BCE (1)1291 (1)1479 (1)1776 (1)1801 (1)1821 (1)1859 (1)1861 (1)1917 (1)1922 (1)1944 (1)1947 (1)1949 (2)1958 (1)1979 (1)1991 (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 20Ancient GreeceNationality2 entriesChinaNationality1 entryEgyptNationality2 entriesFinlandNationality1 entryFranceNationality1 entryGermanyNationality6 entriesIcelandNationality1 entryIndiaNationality1 entryIranNationality1 entryItalyNationality1 entryJapanNationality2 entriesPeruNationality2 entriesRoman EmpireNationality2 entriesRomaniaNationality1 entryRussiaNationality3 entriesSoviet UnionNationality1 entrySpainNationality4 entriesSwitzerlandNationality2 entriesUnited KingdomNationality12 entriesUnited StatesNationality7 entriesConnectionsAssociated WithMexico, Countries Well-attested This source names Mexico directly: "it: the chroniclers of conquest-era Mexico and Peru, the founders of comparative religion and the history of religions, and the ethnographers who documented shamanism, folk belief and indigenous..."Source Divinity Atlas Directory Prose, First Edition Category Descriptionstier 1Peru, Countries Well-attested This source names Peru directly: "chroniclers of conquest-era Mexico and Peru, the founders of comparative religion and the history of religions, and the ethnographers who documented shamanism, folk belief and indigenous ritual..."Source Divinity Atlas Directory Prose, First Edition Category Descriptionstier 1Sources1.
