According To World Atlas, These Are The Countries With The Most Beautiful Girls In The World

Ranked by total number of combined Miss Universe and Miss World beauty contest winners, Venezuela surely has some of the world's most attractive ladies.

Since beauty is said to be in the eye of the beholder, and considering that beauty certainly comes from all parts of the world, it can be difficult to assert that one nation's females' relative beauties are greater than that of another nation. However, we have made the best attempt possible to rank such physical characteristics by means of ranking countries by the sum of their title-holders in two of the world's most competitive international beauty pageants. Namely, these are Miss World and Miss Universe.
