    They can go wherever the compiler (or linker or loader) wants to put them in memory, the C and C++ standards don’t mandate that level of detail. They only mandate the behaviour.

    Typically, static members are initialised once, either on program startup (including at compile time so that they’re simply loaded in an already-initialised state) or immediately before first use.
