No chance of being born in New Zealand I see
It's more proof it doesn't exist.
Or Hawaii.
I'm not so sure I would trust any statistics from a map that's missing New Zealand.
hawaians are also mourning the loss
Yet Americans act like they're 90% of the world and no one and nothing outside the US matters.
and it would be soon only be inhabited by musk's children
I think those chances vary a lot based on where your parents live.
How can an island be split between two continents?
Same way Russia can be split in two continents I suppose.
True, Europe doesn't actually exist, just like Oceania. It is all Asia.
It used to be all Africa until the Suez incident
Should really define it based on something more concrete like fault lines
Technically Antarctica isn't 0. There's a civilian colony and at least one baby has been born there.
Eh it rounds down at that point
11 people were born there. That's a ~0.00000000133649348822 chance. Small but not impossible.
Also there's penguins being born down there.
You never specified humans...
So me being born in Australia was like getting a mythic prize in a loot crate.

Can't believe I used up all my luck for that
Fellow Antarctican?
How about chances of being born in the ocean, or even on this planet?
We'd need data on beings born on other planets to determine that. Currently there's a 100% chance that you were born on this planet if you're a human.

Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity
Ok, now make this but per land area.
It would be nice if there were a year attached to this. Is this supposed to be based on the current day? Or was this map put together several years ago?
There should at least be a decade listed, as birth trends today aren’t going to be identical to trends from the recent past. For example, China only ended their “one child policy” in 2016. If this map were made before that, it might need an update by now.
