light intensity correlates to:

your relevance

your state of progress, technologically

your wealth

and what's with the colors? any EEs here?

i'm in the light in the middle of the peninsula

cool.

i was surprised at how the nile was more lit up than all of turkey and the balkans combined.

I'M RELEVANT

Man, Egypt has like 90.000.000 people.

excellent.

the saddest part of that pic has to be NK vs. SK.

I'm surprised central Saudi Arabia is so lit up, thought it would all be desert?

dumb question, but why is that? the amazon has virtually no lights.

desert vs. jungle?

...and population density

The Nile and all that shizzle. Other than a few Oasis' a lot of the country is utterly uninhabitable so everyone has to live along it.

Oil (and gas) fields. Same reason Western Canada is all lit up

I sometimes wonder why anyone gives a fuck about Belgium or the Netherlands, but looking at that map. damn. together with north germany, thats' half of europe, at least light-picture wise.

notice how italy is the most illuminated
along with that irrelevant country up there whatever that is

what is this. a big-assed valley that everyone loves, or what.

Egyptians practically all live along the Nile, rest of the country is empty as fuck.

yeah it's all plain with a big river and full of people and factories etc. very rich area

tfw Ameribro says I'm relevant

Or maybe how populated your country is

Colors
Blue weakest light
Red second weakest
Yellow third
Bright white the strongest like

Weakest as in least bright

All the factors you said in OP matter very little.

Population density is the most important one

tfw Paris is literally a beacon of light to all of humanity

the largest city of the biggest concentration of light in western coast Iberia(where 4 milion live) has less than 240.000 inhabitatnts

>That huge-ass Madrid
You even trying, rest of Europe?

it correlate to human density most.

maybe more laws than light here
