  • Population: 27 million
  • Aspects: Poor, Third Wave

Benin is economically unremarkable, still struggling to attain a modest Third Wave standard of living. The country is more notable for its religious setting. Benin has long been known as the birthplace of voudoun, and the religion was at the center of a nationalistic movement which swept the country in the 2050s. Present-day voudoun as practiced in Benin is a very cosmopolitan faith, borrowing heavily from both Transhumanism and the Majority Cultures movement. It has proven popular outside Benin, catching on in the Caribbean, Latin America, and even the United States. Today, the National University has a healthy department of voudoun theology, which attracts scholars from around the world.
