In the Grand Prix of beauty 2004, when points earned by each country in the current year of competition are added, the United States finished 1st, going back to the old days, when it was the unquestionable #1 pageant potency in the world. The top 10 of 2004 were:
1) United States - 93,00
2) Australia - 75,50
3) Trinidad & Tobago - 61,50

BEST MOVER: PARAGUAY
Paraguay not only moved amazing 46 positions up with Yanina Gonzales incredible performances both in Miss Universe (4th place) and Miss Earth (4th place), but it has also entered the TOP 50 (in 50th place). Ecuador came in 2nd place in this category (+35), followed by Wales (+24), Tahiti (+24) and Martinique (+20).
On the other end, those who lost the most important positions this year were Slovakia (-37), Netherlands (-21), Zimbabwe (-20), Portugal (-18) and Belgium (-15).

THE BEST OF 2003
BEST MOVER - ETHIOPIA - It was a fantastic year for Ethiopia. With a 6th place in Miss World (30 points) plus a Miss Congeniality in Miss Earth (3 points), Ethiopia left the uncomfortable position it was found in the end of 2002 (0 points, 96th place) to be now in 64th place with 33 points. In addition to that, the country has entered Africa's top 10, as number 8.
The second best mover of the year was Ireland. With Rosanna Davinson's victory in Miss World, plus points from the Beach Babe and Webmasters' contests, Ireland has gained 52 points and 24 positions, having entered the top 50. Angola (+19) and Namibia (+18) follow, while Serbia & Montenegro, who had ended 2002 as 50th in the ranking, is now 35th (+15). Switzerland has risen 13 spots, and Honduras with its first grand slam victory (Miss Earth), +14.
Canada (+12), China (+11) and the Dominican Republic (+10), made some of the most important jumps of the year. Canada, for instance, went from 30th to 18th, and is now part of the 'top 20'.
Brazil has also good reasons to celebrate: up 3, this South American country is back to the top 10 'super powers' of international pageantry.
Luxembourg was victim of the biggest loss of 2003. It lost its points from Miss International 1993 and gained nothing in 2003. It has gone down 28 spots (0 points, 102nd place). Croatia, who had its Miss World 1993 points discarded and won nothing in 2003, fell from #24 to #36.
Best Movers of 2003
1) Ethiopia +32
2) Ireland +24
3) Angola +19
4) Namibia +18
5) Serbia & Montenegro +15
6) Honduras +14
