In Europe, it’s very common for nations to have more tourists arrive in their country than the amount of people living in the country over the course of a year. The craziest ones in this though are France, Spain, and Italy as they all have large populations but because of their draw to tourists, the locals still managed to get outnumbered by the amount of tourists that go to their countries each year

I don’t think I’ve ever heard of anyone ever going to Denmark.
Who goes to Denmark?
Or does Denmark only have small number of people anymore, so it clicks over from blue-to-red pretty easy?

American here. I’m surprised by some of the Balkan states listed. Plenty of my friends have traveled to Croatia – but Albania, Montenegro, Slovenia not so much. (Some of those are on my travel list though, so I shouldn’t be too surprised.)

Guess visiting the Santa Claus Village (magnetic north pole in Finland at the time the legend started supposedly) isn’t such a bad idea after all!

I think the graph meant populace, not populous
