The list is based on a mix of data, including results from international beauty pageants like Miss Universe and Miss World, global surveys, cultural and media representation and public opinion.

Epic Maps said that beauty is subjective and varies by culture, but the list was meant as a general observation based on global perspectives.

Nonetheless, the list has sparked a flurry of comments online, with some users questioning the rankings.

One user said: “No way the UK is ahead of Argentina.” Another questioned: “Mexico ahead of Argentina? Haiti ahead of Greece? Honduras ahead of Switzerland?”

Others agreed with Epic Maps, saying that beauty is subjective, with one person writing: “This list is fun, but don’t take it too seriously.

“Beauty changes depending on who you ask, and every place has its own idea of what’s beautiful.”
