How to read these rankings

Every ranking uses the most recent value published for each country, so the data year can differ from one row to the next; the year column and an orange highlight flag countries that have not reported for several years. Population figures are live estimates extrapolated from the UN World Population Prospects; all other indicators come from World Bank Open Data (which compiles UN, WHO, ILO, ITU, FAO and IEA series). Medians and averages are unweighted — each country counts once regardless of size.
