Poll: Where do you live?

I think for a ranking the data should be normalized by population. If I calculate it for seven leading regions manually, the current numbers are as follows:

  US: California  535 / 39.51 Mil. = 13.54 / Mil.
  Canada          244 / 38.01 Mil. =  6.42 / Mil.
  Germany         232 / 83.24 Mil. =  2.79 / Mil.
  UK              220 / 67.22 Mil. =  3.27 / Mil.
  US: New York    206 / 39.52 Mil. =  5.21 / Mil.
  US: Washington  199 /  7.71 Mil. = 25.81 / Mil.
  US: Texas       122 / 29.15 Mil. =  4.19 / Mil.

There might even be some hidden champions in the lower absolute numbers.

Nordic countries also get high numbers:

  Sweden  74 / 10.35 Mil. = 7.15 / Mil.
  Denmark 40 /  5.83 Mil. = 6.86 / Mil.
  Finland 33 /  5.53 Mil. = 5.97 / Mil.
  Norway  31 /  5.38 Mil. = 5.76 / Mil.

but nothing beats

  Vatican City 6 / 825 = 7273 / Mil.

I had always suspected the Jesuits behind HN.
