According to the pilgrim's office statistics for 2019, of the 15 countries most represented on the Camino de Santiago in terms of receiving compostelas, nine were European countries (Spain, Italy, Germany, Portugal, France, UK, Ireland, Poland, the Netherlands). Can you guess the remaining six countries from outside Europe in the top 15?
Answer tomorrow!
I was debating between South Africa and New Zealand, but no one had said New Zealand before me, so that settled it for me.USA
Canada
Australia
S. Korea
Brazil
New Zealand
Looks like I think like @trecile...
Buen Camino!

I like the chart.The results so far:

The first six would be also my choice, although I'd put New Zealand between Canada and Australia.
I had a look when I was doing my analysis of growth (or not) along the Frances and so I know the answer but I was sure that NZ would NOT be in the top 6 and that is correct. We are very vocal here on the Forum but we are also very small in number.... Sorry for the partial spoiler.The results so far:

So is it (not in this order):I was sure that NZ would NOT be in the top 6 and that is correct.
I have retired for the nightSo is it (not in this order):
- USA
- South Korea
- Canada
- Australia
- Brazil
- ? (not New Zealand)
And you skipped #6.USA
Australia
S Korea
Brazil
Canada
(Not necessafily in that order.)
Better safe than sorry.(Especially for @VNwalking!)
I had 5 correct. I threw in Japan because I have met more Japanese people than new Zelanders. It is Mexico. Shame on me for getting that wrong as I have lived in Mexico for the last 7 years uggggOK, time to end the suspense!
Per @Kathar1na's chart (and including the subsequent responses), everyone correctly included USA, Australia, Canada, Brazil and South Korea. It's the 6th one that proved tricky! (Especially for @VNwalking!)
The correct answer has been listed but @Doughnut NZ is indeed right that it is not New Zealand. That leaves Argentina, South Africa and Mexico as the possibilities. And the correct answer is ... Mexico!
That means our winner is quiz specialist @SabineP! Congrats and thanks for playing everyone!

Possibly the six least represented...
Mongolia
Guam
Gilligan's Island
Narnia
Greenland
Pakistan
Love this @jungleboy! How very interesting! And thanks for indulging me in my "off the wall" humor!Well it does beg the question. Of the real places you listed, Pakistan had 7 pilgrims in 2019, Greenland had 5 and Mongolia had 2. Guam was not listed but I'm not sure if pilgrims would be counted as being from Guam or the USA. There were 20 different countries with just one pilgrim in 2019. (And look, Quiz No. 3 just created itself!)
P.S. Narnia had several on the Invierno.
