Sweden! With 267,570 islands with almost all of them uninhabited! Sweden's neighbors Norway and Finland are the next two. Well over half of the islands in the world are part of those three nations. It may surprise some to learn that the USA is listed as having the highest number of inhabited islands. Indonesia comes in second for the inhabited islands.
