The Wikipedia article on Cao Dai, the syncretic Vietnamese religion founded in 1926, reporting that by the early 1990s the religion had an estimated two million adherents in Vietnam, Cambodia, France and the United States, and that a United Nations finding as of January 2015 put the number of Caodaists in Vietnam at about 2.5 million, against the much higher figures separately claimed by the Cao Dai Tay Ninh Holy See itself.
