How we rank

Source first, every time.

Full ranking depth

Each page publishes every reviewed row through the publisher's full published depth for both categories, including ties and counts. That is the top 50 in most countries and the top 20 in Argentina.

Exact geographic scope

Country labels never silently widen a state, nation, or combined statistical area beyond the publisher data.

Traceable sources

Every page names the publisher, reviewed data source, licence, methodology, release year, and last review date.

From list to shortlist

Find the names you both want to keep.
