One of the fun things about this blog for me is getting to know people from all over the world who share an interest in fantasy toy soldiers. I have been a little surprised by how much interest the blog has generated outside of the USA, and which countries have been showing the most interest. A little more than half of all the traffic on my blog comes from the USA, about 51%. The UK brings the second most visitors, followed by Canada.
It is certainly not surprising that a blog in English attracts the most attention from English speaking countries. What is surprising to me is all of the visitors I get from countries that don't speak English. There seems to be a lot of interest in fantasy toy soldiers in both Western and Eastern Europe, Central and South America and Australia, but only a little interest in Asia and the Middle East.
On the theory that other people might find this interesting as well, here is a list of the 20 countries that brought the most visitors to this blog during 2015:
