Using the Steam Web API we discovered enough information to make an approximation of the distribution of Steam User accounts by country.
Using an interactive world map divided into countries we’ve managed to visualise this data. The map has been combined with a bar chart to make it much easier to see the top 10 results.
We cannot determine with certainty the accuracy of the data. Steam account owners choose their own country label and so this choice may be accurate or it may not. For example we recorded 64 accounts from North Korea, we have not attempted to work out which of them are for real.

The accuracy of the data is not determinable. Steam account owners choose their country themselves and so this choice may be accurate or it may not.
