How far each has moved

Uganda moved fastest — 1.6× its 2014 level — and Egypt slowest at 1.3×. Rank by speed and the order is not the order by level.

Every measure, side by side

Latest value for each country, with the year it comes from. A hatched cell means no usable record — not a zero.

Bold marks the highest value in a row. Behind means that country’s latest figure is older than its neighbours’ — a 2026 value and a 2022 value are not the same claim, and a hatched cell means no record at all.

What each comparison rests on

A country with more reported years is a firmer comparison than one drawn mostly from models. This is the part most comparison tools leave out.
