About Internet Usage % Rankings
United Arab Emirates leads all 232 countries in Internet Usage % with a value of 100, while Central African Republic ranks last at 8.00. This represents a 13-fold difference between the highest and lowest values.
What Internet Usage % Measures
Internet Usage % is a comparative indicator tracked across countries by the World Bank. It provides a quantitative basis for cross-national comparison, enabling researchers and policymakers to benchmark national performance on this dimension against global peers.
Why This Ranking Matters
Examining Internet Usage % across all countries reveals patterns that might not be obvious at the national level. Regional clusters, outlier nations, and historical trajectories all become clearer when the full global picture is assembled in a single ranking.
Global Range
Values range from 8.00 (Central African Republic) to 100 (United Arab Emirates) — a 13-fold difference across 232 countries.
Regional Patterns
Asian countries lead with 8 entries in the top 20, though representation spans multiple continents. Regional factors clearly play a role, but outliers from other parts of the world show that national policy and geography matter as much as continental trends.
Values are broadly distributed across countries, with the middle 50% ranging from 54.6 to 90.764. The overall spread from 8.00 to 100 reflects significant global variation.
Notable Outliers
The top of the ranking is competitive: United Arab Emirates and Antarctica are separated by only 0%, indicating that the leading positions could shift with updated data. The bottom five countries are all from Africa, pointing to regional challenges that affect internet usage % across the continent.
Continental Leaders
Highest Ranked
The top five countries for Internet Usage % are United Arab Emirates (100), Antarctica (100), Bahrain (100), Denmark (100), and Iceland (100). Together, these nations represent the global leaders in this metric.
Lowest Ranked
At the other end of the spectrum, Central African Republic (8.00), Uganda (8.95), South Sudan (9.00), Burundi (11), and Chad (13) have the lowest values globally.
Data Source & Methodology
Rankings are based on the latest available data from World Bank, covering 232 of 249 countries and territories. Countries without data for this metric are excluded from the ranking. All values represent the most recently reported figures.
