Nomor shows the latest year each source publishes, and compares countries only within the same year window.
Adolescent fertilityBirths per 1,000 women aged 15–19 per year — a standard indicator of adolescent reproductive health and, indirectly, of girls’ access to education and family planning.
Population growthHow much a country's population changed over the last year, as a percentage — the net result of births, deaths and migration combined. Negative values mean the population shrank.
Age dependency ratioThe number of people too young (under 15) or too old (over 64) to typically work, per 100 people of working age (15–64). A rising ratio means more dependents per working-age person, whether from a young, growing population or an aging one.
Government effectivenessOne of the World Bank's six Worldwide Governance Indicators: perceptions of the quality of public services, the quality of the civil service and how independent it is from political pressure, and the credibility of the government's own policy commitments. Scored 0–100. Distinct from the corruption-perceptions score above, which asks specifically about bribery and misuse of public office rather than administrative competence.
Rule of lawOne of the World Bank's six Worldwide Governance Indicators: perceptions of confidence in and abidance by the rules of society — contract enforcement, property rights, the police and the courts, and the likelihood of crime and violence. Scored 0–100. A broader institutional-quality measure than the homicide rate above, which counts one specific outcome rather than confidence in the system overall.
Political stabilityOne of the World Bank's six Worldwide Governance Indicators: perceptions of the likelihood that a government will be destabilized or overthrown by unconstitutional or violent means, including politically motivated violence and terrorism. Scored 0–100.
Birth rateLive births per 1,000 people in the population per year. Unlike the fertility rate above (children per woman, independent of age structure), the crude birth rate is pulled up or down by how many women of childbearing age a population actually has — a young population can show a high birth rate even at a moderate fertility rate (World Bank / UN).
Death rateDeaths per 1,000 people in the population per year. Unlike life expectancy above (a hypothetical, age-standardized measure), the crude death rate reflects a population's actual age structure — an older population can show a higher death rate even where people are living longer than ever, simply because more of it has reached old age (World Bank / UN).
Women in cabinetShare of ministerial or equivalent government positions (including deputy prime ministers) held by women — the executive-branch counterpart to the women-in-parliament figure above, which counts the legislature. The two can diverge: a country can appoint many women to cabinet while electing few to its legislature, or the other way around (Inter-Parliamentary Union & UN Women, Women in Politics).
International migrantsShare of a country's population, at mid-year, who were born in a country other than the one they live in (including refugees) — a snapshot of the accumulated stock of migrants living there today. Distinct from the net-migration figure above, which measures the recent flow (arrivals minus departures over the latest 5-year window) rather than the total stock built up over decades (UN DESA Population Division via World Bank).
Women in senior managementShare of senior and middle management positions held by women. A third seat of gender-leadership representation on this page, alongside the women-in-parliament (legislative) and women-in-cabinet (executive) figures above — a country can elect many women to office while still showing few in corporate leadership, or the reverse (ILO via World Bank).
Suicide rateDeaths from self-harm per 100,000 people, age-standardized for cross-country comparison. From the WHO Global Health Observatory; a public-health indicator, shown for context alongside the other health metrics.
Child mortalityShare of children who die before their fifth birthday, out of all live births — one of the most closely watched child-health indicators (UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation).
Skilled birth attendanceShare of births attended by a doctor, nurse or trained midwife able to manage normal deliveries and recognize complications — a standard measure of access to basic maternal care during childbirth, distinct from the maternal-mortality outcome figure elsewhere on this page, which counts deaths rather than access to care (UNICEF / WHO via World Bank).
Measles vaccinationShare of one-year-olds who have received the first dose of the measles vaccine — a standard marker of routine childhood immunization coverage (WHO/UNICEF).
Out-of-pocket health costsShare of a country's total health spending that patients pay directly out of pocket, rather than through insurance or government programs — higher shares mean more financial risk for the sick.
Children out of schoolPrimary-school-age children who are not enrolled in primary or secondary school, as a share of that age group (UNESCO Institute for Statistics).
Tertiary enrollmentTotal enrollment in college or university, regardless of age, as a share of the population in the five years following secondary-school graduation — a "gross" ratio, so it can exceed 100%.
Anemia in womenShare of women aged 15–49 whose hemoglobin level falls below the healthy threshold (12 g/dL for non-pregnant women, 11 g/dL for pregnant women) — a marker of iron deficiency and nutritional health.
Tuberculosis incidenceEstimated new and relapse tuberculosis cases arising in a year, per 100,000 people, including cases in people living with HIV (WHO Global Tuberculosis Report).
Child stuntingShare of children under 5 whose height for their age falls more than 2 standard deviations below the international reference median — a marker of chronic undernutrition in early childhood.
Pupil–teacher ratioThe average number of pupils per teacher in primary school. A lower ratio generally means more individual attention per student, though it says nothing about teacher quality.
Trained teachers, primaryShare of primary-school teachers who have received the minimum organized teacher training (pre-service or in-service) required to teach at that level. A teacher-quality companion to the pupil-teacher ratio elsewhere on this page, which only measures class size — a country can show a favorable ratio with many untrained teachers, or the reverse (UNESCO Institute for Statistics via World Bank).
Trained teachers, secondaryShare of secondary-school teachers who have received the minimum organized teacher training required to teach at that level — the secondary-school counterpart to the primary-level figure above. The two can diverge: some countries train primary teachers far more consistently than secondary subject specialists, or the reverse (UNESCO Institute for Statistics via World Bank).
DTP3 immunizationShare of one-year-olds who have received all three recommended doses of the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTP) vaccine — a standard benchmark of routine childhood immunization coverage (WHO/UNICEF).
Government health spendingGovernment spending on health — public insurance schemes, government hospitals, subsidies — as a share of GDP. Distinct from total health spending (public plus private/out-of-pocket), which is not shown separately on this page (WHO Global Health Expenditure Database).
Primary enrollmentTotal primary-school enrollment, regardless of age, as a share of the population that is officially primary-school age — a 'gross' ratio, so it can exceed 100% where older or younger students are enrolled (UNESCO Institute for Statistics).
Calorie supplyThe daily food supply available per person, in kilocalories — how much food reaches households and markets, not necessarily how much is eaten (some is wasted). A rough companion to the undernourishment share above: supply well above requirement doesn't rule out unequal access within a country (FAO).
Neonatal mortalityDeaths in the first 28 days of life, per 1,000 live births — the highest-risk slice of the infant mortality window above, when complications from birth, prematurity and infection are most dangerous (UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation).
Pre-primary enrollmentTotal enrollment in early-childhood or pre-primary education, regardless of age, as a share of the population that is officially pre-primary age — a 'gross' ratio, so it can exceed 100% where older or younger children are enrolled (UNESCO Institute for Statistics).
Youth literacyShare of 15-24-year-olds who can read and write a simple sentence about everyday life. Because this age group finished school recently, it moves faster than the whole-adult literacy rate above and previews where that rate is headed (UNESCO Institute for Statistics).
Diabetes prevalenceShare of adults aged 20–79 estimated to have diabetes (type 1 or type 2), from national surveys and studies compiled into a single comparable estimate (International Diabetes Federation, IDF Diabetes Atlas).
Meat supplyThe quantity of meat — all types combined — available for consumption per person per year, in kilograms. Like the calorie-supply figure above, this measures what reaches markets and households, not necessarily what gets eaten; some is wasted (FAO Food Balance Sheets).
Child wastingShare of children under 5 whose weight for their height is more than 2 standard deviations below the international reference median — acute malnutrition, typically from a recent illness or sudden food shortage. Distinct from the child stunting figure above, which reflects chronic, longer-term undernutrition (UNICEF/WHO/World Bank Joint Malnutrition Estimates).
Polio immunizationShare of one-year-olds who have received the full three-dose course of polio vaccine. A companion to the measles and DTP3 immunization figures above — together the three are the standard benchmarks of a country's routine childhood immunization program (WHO/UNICEF).
Contraceptive useShare of married women aged 15–49 who — or whose partner — are using any method of contraception, modern or traditional. A standard measure of access to family planning, compiled from household surveys by the UN Population Division.
Survival to 65 (women)The share of a cohort of newborn girls that would survive to age 65 if they experienced today's age-specific death rates for their whole life. Unlike life expectancy above (an average number of years), this is a single probability; unlike child mortality above, it captures survival across the whole adult lifespan rather than just early childhood (World Bank / UN World Population Prospects).
Survival to 65 (men)The male counterpart to the female survival-to-65 figure above. The gap between the two is one of the most consistent patterns in global health — men have a higher death rate than women at almost every adult age, in almost every country (World Bank / UN World Population Prospects).
Hepatitis B immunizationShare of one-year-olds who have received the full three-dose course of hepatitis B vaccine. A fourth companion to the measles, DTP3 and polio immunization figures elsewhere on this page — hepatitis B guards against a different disease (a liver infection that can become chronic) than any of the other three (WHO/UNICEF).
Primary school gender parityThe ratio of girls to boys enrolled in primary school (gross enrollment). A value of 1.00 means equal enrollment; below 1 means fewer girls than boys are enrolled, above 1 means more girls than boys. Most countries sit close to parity at the primary level, which is part of why the secondary-level figure below is often the more revealing one (UNESCO Institute for Statistics via World Bank).
Secondary school gender parityThe ratio of girls to boys enrolled in secondary school (gross enrollment). Some countries hold parity at the primary level above but see it widen or reverse at secondary — from early marriage, safety concerns, or the opportunity cost of girls' labor at home — so the two figures together show whether a gender gap opens up as children get older (UNESCO Institute for Statistics via World Bank).

Tourist arrivalsOvernight visitors arriving from abroad per year. Each trip counts separately, so one frequent traveller can register several arrivals (UN Tourism).
Income inequalityThe Gini coefficient summarizes income inequality from 0 (everyone earns the same) to 1 (one person earns everything). Most countries land between 0.25 and 0.55.
Median incomeThe income (or consumption) of the person in the exact middle of the distribution, per day, adjusted for price differences between countries (PPP). Unlike GDP per person, the median is not pulled up by a rich minority (World Bank Poverty and Inequality Platform).
Youth not in work or schoolShare of 15–24 year-olds who are neither in school, in training, nor working — a measure of disconnection from both education and the labor market (ILO, SDG 8.6.1).
Current account balanceThe balance of a country's trade in goods and services plus income and transfers with the rest of the world, as a share of GDP. A negative number (deficit) means the country is a net borrower from abroad that year; positive (surplus) means it's a net lender.
Remittances receivedMoney sent home by people working abroad — personal transfers plus compensation of short-term foreign workers — as a share of the receiving country's GDP. For some lower-income countries this exceeds foreign aid or investment.
Foreign direct investmentNet inflows of investment from abroad to acquire a lasting stake (10%+ of voting stock) in local businesses, as a share of GDP — new investment minus disinvestment.
Agriculture share of GDPThe contribution of farming, forestry and fishing to a country's economic output, as a share of GDP — a classic indicator of how much an economy still depends on primary-sector production versus industry and services.
Multidimensional povertyThe Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) measures poverty beyond income: a person counts as poor if their household is deprived across a third or more of ten indicators spanning health (nutrition, child mortality), education (years of schooling, school attendance) and living standards (cooking fuel, sanitation, water, electricity, housing, assets). Scored 0–1; complements the income-based poverty measure above by capturing deprivations money alone can miss (Alkire et al., Global MPI).
ICT service exportsExports of computer, information and telecommunications services, as a share of a country's total service exports (as distinct from goods) — a look at trade composition through services rather than the manufactured high-tech goods measured above.
Natural resource rentsThe combined value of oil, natural gas, coal, mineral and forest rents — the gap between what these resources sell for and the cost of extracting them — as a share of GDP. A rough gauge of how dependent an economy is on extracting and selling natural resources rather than other forms of production; oil- and mineral-rich economies can show double-digit shares while resource-poor economies show close to zero (World Bank, The Changing Wealth of Nations).
Container port trafficThe volume of containerized cargo moving through a country's ports in a year, measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) — a standard shipping-industry unit. A raw count that reflects both trade volume and a country's role as a transshipment hub: small countries with major ports (e.g. Singapore, the Netherlands) can show outsized numbers relative to their own economy (UNCTAD via World Bank).
Tourism receiptsMoney spent in a country by international visitors — accommodation, food, transport, shopping and more — in a year, in current US dollars. A dollar-value companion to the tourist-arrivals figure above: two countries can draw similar visitor numbers yet earn very different amounts depending on how long visitors stay and how much they spend (UN Tourism via World Bank).
Tourism expenditure abroadMoney a country's own residents spend traveling abroad in a year, in current US dollars — the opposite direction from the tourism-receipts figure above, which counts money incoming visitors spend locally. A country can be a net tourism earner (receipts exceed this figure) or a net tourism spender, depending on how outbound and inbound travel compare (UN Tourism via World Bank).
Foreign patent applicationsThe number of patent applications filed in a country by non-residents (foreign applicants) in a year — the flip side of the resident patent-applications figure above. A country that attracts many foreign filings relative to its own resident filings is acting as an 'innovation magnet' — a market worth protecting an invention in — rather than necessarily being where the invention was made (WIPO Patent Report via World Bank).
IP royalty receiptsMoney a country earns per year from letting others use its patents, trademarks, copyrighted works, franchises and similar intellectual property, in current US dollars — a measure of how much intellectual property a country's economy has that other countries want to license, distinct from the high-tech goods and ICT services measured elsewhere on this page (IMF Balance of Payments via World Bank).
Secure internet serversThe number of servers using encrypted connections (SSL/TLS certificates), per 1 million people — a proxy for how much of a country's online commerce and services run on secure, modern infrastructure. Distinct from the internet-usage and broadband figures elsewhere on this page, which measure who is online, not how secure the infrastructure they connect to is (Netcraft Secure Server Survey via World Bank).
Fixed telephone linesFixed (landline) telephone subscriptions per 100 people. Unlike the mobile subscriptions figure elsewhere on this page, this number has been falling almost everywhere for two decades as households switch to mobile-only — many lower-income countries never built out extensive landline networks at all and went straight to mobile, so a low number here can mean either decline from a past peak or a network that was largely skipped (ITU via World Bank).
Scientific & technical articlesScience-and-engineering publications counted per year — a selection of conference proceedings alongside peer-reviewed journal articles, indexed in Scopus and classified under the US National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics' Taxonomy of Disciplines, a broader and more current field list than 'journal articles in physics, biology, chemistry, math, engineering, tech and earth/space sciences' alone. The actual research-output dimension, distinct from the R&D-spending and researchers-in-R&D figures elsewhere on this page, which measure the money and people going into research rather than what comes out of it — a country can spend heavily on R&D without a proportional publication output, or the reverse (NSF Science & Engineering Indicators via World Bank).
Clean cooking accessShare of the population whose main cooking fuel is clean (gas, electricity, biogas) rather than smoky solid fuels or kerosene, which drive indoor air pollution (WHO Household Energy Database).
Natural disaster deathsDeaths from earthquakes, floods, storms, droughts and other natural disasters per 100,000 people per year, smoothed to reduce the swings a single catastrophic event can cause (EM-DAT).
Clean water accessShare of the population using a drinking-water source that is accessible on premises, available when needed, and free of contamination — the WHO/UNICEF "basic" service tier.
Sanitation accessShare of the population using improved sanitation facilities (flush toilets, pit latrines with a slab, etc.) that are not shared with other households — the WHO/UNICEF "basic" service tier.
Forest changeThe net change in forest area in the latest year — new forest gained through planting or natural regrowth, minus forest lost to clearing, fire or disease — in hectares. A raw count: larger countries naturally show bigger absolute swings even at a similar underlying rate (FAO Global Forest Resources Assessment).
Total CO₂ emissionsThe total tonnes of fossil-fuel and industrial CO₂ a country emits in a year. Unlike the per-person figure above, this isn't divided by population, so large, industrialized or populous countries naturally show bigger totals even at a modest per-person footprint (Global Carbon Budget).
Greenhouse gas emissions per personPer-person emissions of all greenhouse gases — not just CO₂, but methane and nitrous oxide too, plus land-use change — converted to tonnes of CO₂-equivalent. Broader than the CO₂-only figures on this page: countries with large livestock herds or land-clearing can rank differently here than on CO₂ alone (Jones et al., National Contributions to Climate Change, via Our World in Data).
Total greenhouse gas emissionsThe total tonnes of all greenhouse gases — not just CO₂ but methane and nitrous oxide too, plus land-use change — a country emits in a year, in CO₂-equivalent terms. The all-gas counterpart to the CO₂-only total above, and not divided by population like the per-person figure elsewhere on this page (Jones et al., National Contributions to Climate Change, via Our World in Data).
Safely managed waterShare of the population using drinking water that clears the WHO/UNICEF JMP's highest service tier: not just 'basic' (available within a 30-minute round trip) but free from fecal and priority chemical contamination, located on the premises, and available when needed. A stricter cut of the basic water access figure above (WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme).
Safely managed sanitationShare of the population using improved sanitation facilities that are not shared with other households, where excreta are safely disposed of on site or transported and treated off site — the WHO/UNICEF JMP's highest service tier, a stricter cut of the basic sanitation access figure above (WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme).
Urban slum populationShare of a country's urban population living in households lacking one or more of: durable housing, sufficient living space, access to clean water, access to sanitation, or secure tenure — UN-Habitat's definition of a slum household. The first housing-conditions metric on this page — a companion to the water, sanitation and electricity access figures elsewhere, which measure access to services nationally rather than housing quality specifically in cities (UN-Habitat via World Bank).
Electricity access, ruralShare of the rural population with an electricity connection — one half of a rural/urban split of the overall electricity-access figure elsewhere on this page. A national headline rate can hide a large gap between a well-electrified capital and a still-unconnected countryside (World Bank / IEA (SDG 7.1.1)).
Electricity access, urbanShare of the urban population with an electricity connection — the urban half of the same rural/urban split, almost always the higher of the two; the size of the gap to the rural figure above says more about a country's electrification progress than either number alone (World Bank / IEA (SDG 7.1.1)).
