How we made this

Every interpreted dream is tagged with the symbols in it, like teeth, snakes or falling. For each country we compared how often each symbol comes up there with how often it comes up everywhere else, and picked the one furthest ahead: its standout dream. It has to come from at least four different people and be at least 1.5 times as common as elsewhere, and small countries are pulled towards the world's average so a few dreams can't win on their own. Countries with fewer than 50 dreams, or where nothing stands out, are grey. The most common dream is simply the symbol on the most dreams; a tie goes to the symbol that is more common worldwide. Only counts went into the map: no one's dream was read or shown.
