What the numbers say

On record, the biggest yearly rise was 34.35 percentage points in 2021 and the biggest yearly fall was 36.38 percentage points in 2020. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 7% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
