List of Mythologies Found Around The World (Part 1)

Remember that last post I made about how the blog is going to be about mythology that is specific to that country or area? Today is your lucky day because I have a list made! Well, it's more like a list of mythology found in each region since I don't want your brain to hurt from reading a very long post.

Note: If there is any kind of mythology that you think needs to be on this list, please comment below and I will add it to the list!
