    New Zealand’s gone missing again, I’m assuming it’s lumped in with Australia.

    But if you do it per country things would look different. The US would have the highest percentage of people from all around the planet while all the other countries would have like 0.0001% from other places. I just made that number up, but yeah, you won’t find diversity as you find it here in the USA… Let’s cherish that, let’s keep our melting pot alive and well!

      The US isn’t even in the top 20 of proportion of people living there born abroad. They do however have the highest total number of immigrants.

      11 people were born there. That’s a ~0.00000000133649348822 chance. Small but not impossible.

            Indeed, they make BOTH. If you haven’t tried their root beer, you need to. I can’t drink any other sarsaparilla/sassafras beverage now.

      A very rare prize for sure, but is it very valuable too? Considering the wildlife there I’m not so sure.

    It’s not zero for Antarctica, just nearly zero. 11 people have been born in Antarctica. Mostly argentinians but also a couple chileans.

      Okay and that would still be less than 0.00% which is the significant figures on the chart. They can’t just put 0.01.because 11 out 8 billion people were born there.

        They could have put <0.01 but either way there’s no real society/culture there to bwgin with. I personally wouldn’t have even included it on the map.

        I will say if they were included on education stats, they would probably top all global charts.

      The people that were born there each had a 100% chance of being born there. Actually, that’s true for all areas.

    It would be nice if there were a year attached to this. Is this supposed to be based on the current day? Or was this map put together several years ago?

    There should at least be a decade listed, as birth trends today aren’t going to be identical to trends from the recent past. For example, China only ended their “one child policy” in 2016. If this map were made before that, it might need an update by now.
