Ignored Nations

Deborah Prat is one of the few full-time Argentinian pornstars on the market.
I was pretty surprised to discover that Nasty Makeup was only the second Argentinian site we'd ever reviewed, and in fact only the second adult or porn site from that country that I'd ever seen. Why is that?
Why do so many countries fall by the wayside when it comes to pornography? The online market is, predictably, dominated by America, eastern Europe and Japan, so it stands to reason that these regions would doiminate the output.
But why, for instance, do you very rarely see any French porn sites? Or South African ones? Or Australian ones? Or, of course, Argentinian ones. These are countries where porn consumption is high and technological concepts advanced.
When you see a site promoting South American Latinas, they are almost always Brazilian and Mexican. A site proclaiming itself to be European is usually Russian. And as for African sites, they're non-existent, aren't they?
It just strikes me that in a market that is constantly looking for innovation and new talent or just somewhere new to focus on that so much of the world remains unmapped by the porn industry. It's criminal really.
The girls on Nasty Makeup are at least the equals of their Brazilian counterparts in terms of looks and appearance. There really is no reason to just stick to the same countries. There is so much more out there.
Oh, and why are there hardly any Canadian sites, eh?
