Peru "most loving" country on the internet


Living in Peru
Israel Ruiz

In a recent report released by EFE News, Peru was considered the 'most loving' country on the internet.

Results were based on the number of times people in the world had searched for something related to love on Google.

The news agency reported that according to Google Insight for Search, this year, Peru has been the country in the world that has most searched for information with the word "love" (in Spanish).

On the other hand, Mexico is the country that made the most searches with the word "hate".

Other statistics showed that since the beginning of the year, there have been 193 million results found with the word "love" and 20 million with the word "hate".

Despite this, there are more searches with the word hate, said EFE.

The news agency reported there were obvious interferences when attempting to draw conclusions. For example, the word "life" was searched for 325 million times while the word "death" was searched for 45 million times.

This was attributed to Coldplay's new album Viva la vida.*

*All results are based on searches in Spanish.

Could it be they were looking for dating websites? Or perhaps song lyrics?
