File talk:Catholic Majority Countries.PNG

Switzerland, Germany, The Netherlands

Switzerland does not have a catholic majority but there are more catholics than protestants. In The Netherlands the dominant religion (with 24% ) is the roman catholic one. Also in Germany, with approx. 30%, catholics are the largest religion. So why is Switzerland coded as majority catholic but Germany and The Netherlands are not ? Where is the source?
