Well, I think we all know the answer to _that_ ;-)
Here's what I get breaking down your country lists by continent:
Count - Sep Sep
Continent comma dot
------------- ----- -----
Africa 1 7
Asia 9 16
Australia 2
Europe 36 7
N.America 1 6
S.America 10 8
--- ---
Total Result 57 46
So the comma is certainly predominant in Europe, but I had no idea the

It would be interesting to break it down by colonial influences, but I
don't remember enough history to do it off the top of my head. Now I'll
have to go see if I can learn where the two notations came from.
