America: symbol of our values designed to welcome newcomers to our country
India: statue of one of the founders of our country, a pivotal figure in our fight for freedom
Australia: idk like a big sheep or something
Really, Australian biggest statue is sheep?
Europe is cheating.
What about the tallest indigenously build statue on each continent, since the Statue of Liberty was designed, built, and gifted by the French? What is the tallest statue in North America built by North Americans?
Looking at this again, I do not think that most records actually count the pedestal as part of the statue do they? That seems like cheating. By this metric, you could put a Ninja Turtle figurine on top of the CN Tower and claim it to be the tallest statue in North America.
1/2 are religious, 1/2 are not.
That’s a pathetic effort from Australia. A 15m high sheep. Must do better.
Monuments to Overcompensating
I was sold a lie that I had visited the tallest Virgin Mary statue in the world in Bolivia… [It’s 4 feet shorter than the one in Venezuela.](https://aleteia.org/2018/02/15/here-is-the-tallest-statue-of-the-virgin-mary-in-the-world)
Wow I’m surprised the biggest in South America isn’t Christ the redeemer
I know the statue in India is an important figure, but I also find it hilarious that it just looks like a tired dude standing in line at the DMV.

Australia. . . Jabba the Hut?
To those thinking why the heck India made this statue kindly remember that sardar vallabhai Patel (statue guy) negotiated , used force in some cases to united all 565 princely kingdoms with directly control British residencies to form the borders of modern republic of india . For me this is a act much better than gandhis shitty peaceful resistant.
Did Jaba the Hut rule Australia for a minute?
I really thought that SouthAmerica’s would be CristoRedemtor in Rio.
Heights are mixed up, Height of Christ the King is with pedestal, Statue of Unity without.
Just to complete the heptalogy, there is this Statue of Lenin in Antarctica: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.rferl.org/amp/the-loneliest-and-coldest-lenin-antarctica/30319805.html
Although i’m not sure if it counts as it’s mostly buried in ice.
The statue of columbus in Puerto Rico is 110m, the tallest in the entire western hemisphere.
This map doesn’t show the fact that 10 out of 10 of the biggest statues are in Asia. So it’s a bummer we’re not seeing the other nine giant Asian statues that eclipse the other continents
Let’s be real, Australia has the best one.
why is part of indonesia shown as oceania
1, christ wants a hug isn’t the tallest?! How much do these people love Mary- wait no scratch that.
2, I thought the African renaissance monument was meant to put the statue of liberty to shame, reddit. Why is it so small, reddit.
3, that’s a big sheep
Europe is the best one 🔥
VENEZUELA MENTIONED 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
It’s truly something that all of these Statues are relatively close to their respective continent’s Coasts, Dakar’s one is the most surprising to me.
Do you guys believe there should be a statue of limitations?
African renaissance monument kinda looks like it’s from Soviet/nazi Germany/fascist Italy propaganda poster
