Instagram Influencers with More Followers Than Their Countries’ Populations

A study was conducted by ARKA to identify the most followed Instagram influencers from each country, focusing on those whose follower count exceeds the entire population of their home countries. Official Instagram statistics were used to find the most famous people from each country, and the latest population numbers were sourced from Census Gov and other official governmental websites. The study then calculated the difference between the influencer’s follower count and the country’s population. 
Additionally, the research provides information on the topic of influence and gender distribution among these top Instagram influencers.
