Modern pagans are a religious minority in every country where they exist[1] and have been subject to religious discrimination and/or religious persecution. The largest modern pagans communities are in North America and the United Kingdom, and the issue of discrimination receives most attention in those locations, but there are also reports from other countries.
This form of discrimination has been known online as "Wiccaphobia",[2] or "paganphobia",[3] though this usage is often confused with pogonophobia, the fear of beards.
^Consistently below 0.5%. Estimated ratios may approach 0.4% in Iceland and the UK. In the US and Canada, modern pagans account for an estimated 0.2% of the population.
