I don't think only Europe is democratized. I mention Europe mainly because once upon a time religion had a very serious hold there, but eventually the grips of religion weakened, and over the centuries great change occured, they expanded into other parts of the world, founded America etc. I am only mentioning it because I think it is the best example of a continent/area going from derranged by religion to an area that is ruled by liberal democracies.

Many Islamic states have become derranged by their religion, in the same way Europe once was. I hope that clears that up.
