When did religion come to Uganda?

Religion was introduced to Uganda in the late 19th century, primarily with the arrival of Christian missionaries. The Church Missionary Society (CMS) began its work in Uganda in 1877, followed by other groups such as the Roman Catholics and the Seventh-day Adventists. Islam also had a presence in Uganda prior to this, having been introduced in the early 19th century by traders and explorers. Consequently, Uganda's religious landscape has been shaped by a blend of indigenous beliefs, Christianity, and Islam.
