Internet Penetration Around The World

Internet Penetration Around The World An exploration of the growth of Internet penetration over countries around the world. Penetration Growth (% Population) World Regions 2000-2010 10.9 % Africa 2,357.3 % 21.5 % Asia 621.8 % 58.4 % Europe 352.0 % 29.8 % Middle East 1,825.3 % 77.4 % North America 146.3 % 34.5 % Latin America/Caribbean 1,032.8 % 61.3 % Oceania / Australia 179.0 % 28.7 % World Total 444.8 % Countries with the Countries with the fewest internet users: most internet users: China 420 million Barbados 142,000 EU 337 million Gambia 130,000 USA 239 million Namibia 128,000 Jаpan 99 million Papua New Guinea 125,000 India 81 million Botswana 120,000 125 mio 250 mio 375 mio 500 me 50.000 150,000 r00.000 200,000 Botswana, the country with the fewest internet users in the world, has a population of over 2 million, putting its internet penetration at a dismal 6%. While Botswana may have the fewest users, it does not have the fewest total users, it does not have the worst rate of penetration. Papua New Guniea, the country with the second fewest internet users, has a population of over 6 million, putting its internet penetration at a depressingly low 2%. The 'Global Digital Divide' is the gap between access to the internet and its associated technologies by those in the first and developing worlds. While the above data can be interpreted as bleak, overall internet penetration for Africa did grow 2,357.3% in the past decade. Perhaps in the next ten years we will see the gap close.
