    Also somewhat of an inverse map of women’s rights and education, with some clear outliers.

      You’re right, actually

      I’ve had this argument in VR with Russians, living in Russia, in Russian.

      Interlocutor: “Yes, but what geographic block is it part of?”

      Naz: “Asia, it’s on the continent”

      I: “But Asia is a landmass and Western Europe is on Asia as well technically, but they are not Asian are they?”

      Naz: “They’re as much Asian as you are Eastern European

      It never occurs for most people (including me) how actually we are blessed to not to be born in a wrong place at a wrong time.

      My roots are nothing to be proud of. But I am proud I was born not in a country where human life is dispensable.

      It’s absolute, not per capita. Mexico for example has a higher birth rate then the US but less people so it has a lower number.

    Totally useless because not pro-ratized to population. Of course India is going to produce a lot of babies, India has a lot of people.

        Sure, interesting. You already know their populations are the same. What’s the population of Nigeria? Brazil? Totally necessary to understand the map.

      The weird thing is, they estimated these numbers based on the population and the per-capita birth rate. They didn’t even take the raw data, they took the corrected data and uncorrected it.
