Chart compares national IPv4 holdings with land area
Original title: If IPv4 Were Land
October 2026 IP Trust counts scale each country’s addresses against world land area, excluding Antarctica.
A data visualization treats IPv4 address holdings as land area by dividing each country’s addresses by the world total and multiplying by world land area. It includes countries with at least 100,000 IPv4 addresses and 20,000 square kilometres of land, using Natural Earth map geometry rather than official land figures. Antarctica and about 70 small territories without outlines at that resolution are omitted.
- Omitted territories account for about 52 million addresses.
- Hong Kong, Singapore and Mauritius make up most of the omitted addresses.
- Counts come from the IP Trust geolocation database for October 2026.

From the original article
1 min read at iptrust.coTables include countries with at least 100,000 IPv4 addresses and 20,000 km² of land. Method: area as IPv4 = (country's IPv4 addresses ÷ world IPv4 addresses) × world land area. Land area is computed from the map geometry, so it's the 1:110m Natural Earth outline, not official figures.
