The total number of Internet hosts continues to grow apace, and since human population grows by contrast very slowly, the numbers of hosts per capita per country also increase rapidly. But when you look at the global distribution of countries according to hosts per capita, the picture looks very much like it has for five years or more now. Of course, if you look at the distribution of income per capita per country it looks quite similar. True, the U.K. is in the next range down, of at least 16 hosts per thousand people, along with Hong Kong and Taiwan, among others. To find Germany, you have to go still lower, into the 8 range, next to Singapore and Israel, and along with Estonia and Ireland.
Japan is in there, too, next to Slovenia.
For Italy and France, go on down to the next, or 4, range, along with Czech Republic, Barbados, Uruguay, and South Korea. Almost every country in the world is connected to the Internet now. Most of the remaining countries are tiny. Many countries that quite recently were not connected for the same reasons, such as for examples China, Bosnia, Cuba, Nigeria, and the Isle of Man, are now connected. Of those countries that are connected, almost all them are gaining hosts rapidly.
