thanks to both of you i think that the average number of national newspapers per nation is way too high even if we include the nations not recognised by the un i don't think it would decrease to a more realistic figure for example how many national newspapers does great britain have i don't think it even comes close to a hundred on the other hand maybe as bus stop said each of the ten days is counted as a new occurrence at least this would reduce the number by an order of magnitude ogos raxis
