First off, that shade of green does not represent 100%. Still, perhaps this image should be renamed "relative distribution of muslims: Shia vs. Sunni" since it appears that only these two denominations are represetned on the map. According to the articles Islam in Turkey and Alevi the distribution is:

• Sunni: 75%
• Alevi (Shia): 15%
• Other: 10%
