World: Occupy movement gains massive international footprint
- 82 number of countries taking part in the October 15 protests, a global offshoot of Occupy Wall Street
- 951 number of cities where protests are taking place today — amazingly, it started with just one about a month ago
- six number of continents that have some sort of event going on today; maybe Antartica has one too, possibly? source
- » Highest and lowest saturations: While North America, Europe and South America have a particularly high number of protests, Africa, Asia and the Middle East are looking a little thin. Australia’s somewhere in the middle. While many of the protests have been peaceful, some have gotten violent, most notably in Rome, where anarchists drew attention away from peaceful protests.
