The above are the New7Wonders of Nature, based on the first count of vote results announced at the N7W headquarters in Zurich on 11/11/11.

Where a provisional status is shown, this means the first step of the verification process is still underway. The process of confirming the provisional New7Wonders of Nature results includes the following steps:

1. The validation of the national phone and SMS voting results, after which preliminary CONFIRMED status is granted to the relevant New7Wonder of Nature.

2. The verification of the total worldwide calculation, to be completed once all national phone and SMS voting results are validated, expected during the first quarter of 2012.

3. The preparation and implementation of the Official Inauguration events for each New7Wonder of Nature to be confirmed.

We will update and announce the individual status as each one of the New7Wonders of Nature is confirmed. We will do this on an ongoing basis once the validation, verification and preparation process is complete for each one and overall. At that point each confirmed New7Wonder of Nature will host an Official Inauguration at the location and in the capital city, during which the Official New7Wonders of Nature Plaque will be ceremonially presented as final confirmation of the status as one of the Official New7Wonders of Nature as voted by the people of the world.

Total voting set a new world record for N7W, many hundreds of millions of votes and a multiple of the votes achieved in our first campaign to elect the man-made New 7 Wonders of the World declared in 2007. We will update on the exact number of votes once the confirmation process is fully completed.
