SELECT a subject from the top menu and watch the countries on the map change their size. Instead of land mass, the size of each country will represent the data for that subject --both its share of the total and absolute value.

Nice Find  :up:

f0dder:
Interesting - but it would be interesting if certain stats could be compared relatively to country size. For instance, a small country like Denmark can't compete much in raw numbers, but if the figures were "litres of pure alcohol consumed by person per year", "windmill power production relative to energy consumption", "number of abortions/year compared to population" etc., we'd probably score a lot better :)

If you have that data in the format they want, submit it and they may add it to the Your Maps section.

Well, I'd say the already have all the data they need to make those "proper" maps... they probably just din't think much, or perhaps they see everything in absolutes :)
