Christianity, which accounts for about 79% of the population, is by far the largest religion in the country. Approximately 38% of the Democratic Republic of the Congo identify as Protestants. The first Protestant missions were established in 1878. Most Protestant churches are a part of the Church of Christ in the Congo (CCC), which is a large union of many different denominations in the Congo.
