How about overall distribution of Michelin stars?

In response to a couple of requests I have decided that from 2005 I will show this also. Unfortunately it is currently not possible for 2006, as Michelin have not released the full data.

Country 3 stars 2 stars 1 star Total Stars
Austria 0 4 48 56
Belgium 3 12 79 112
Luxembourg 0 2 10 14
Netherlands 2 7 64 84
Czech Republic 0 0 0 0
Denmark 0 1 9 11
Finland 0 1 2 4
France 26 70 402 620
Germany 6 14 166 212
Greece 0 0 3 3
Hungary 0 0 0 0
Ireland 0 2 1 5
Italy 4 23 197 255
Norway 0 1 4 6
Poland 0 0 0 0
Portugal 0 1 6 8
Spain 4 10 91 123
Sweden 0 1 7 9
Switzerland 2 14 80 114
United Kingdom 3 10 201 230

This following table shows the total Michelin stars per million of population in 2005.

As can be seen, Luxembourg, Belgium and Switzerland can all claim more stars per head than France (I have not counted Monaco separately).

Country Percentage of population per million (2005)
Luxembourg 32.6
Switzerland 15.7
Belgium 11.0
France 10.5
Austria 6.9
Netherlands 5.3
Italy 4.5
United Kingdom 3.9
Spain 3.1
Germany 2.6
Denmark 2.1
Ireland 1.4
Norway 1.4
Sweden 1.0
Portugal 0.8
Finland 0.8
