For some languages it is easy as a particular language is spoken in one country mainly. (Still there might be some local languages/dialects that are then not represented in the data.)

For some other languages is is not easy to get the statistics of the most visited pages of a country as the language is spoken in multiple countries.

If for example one country only has 3% of the population in comparison to another country with the same language, the language statistics are very biased. The larger country consumes so much data, that the data of the country with the smaller population is invisible. If we have no data for them, we let those unseen communities down.

On Swedish Wikipedia we collect it on one page: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Mest_visade_artiklar_2022

Doing it per language is much easier than per country, as the data is publicly available.

Best,

Every year it reaches the headlines of the news: the top 10 or top 100 of most visited Google searches of the past year in my country. This I have seen in some other countries too. 

People are interested and with making this data public, something positive is said about Google (besides all the negatieve news about them during the rest of the year).

This is something simple Wikimedia could do too: sharing this kind of data (*by country*) with the world. It would bring Wikipedia closer to the public, more positive awareness. 
Or otherwise making this data available to the local chapters so they can bring positive news about Wikipedia.
