Over five years it is up 137.36% from 23.64 billion in 2011 (18.87% a year on average, compounded). Since 1998 it is down 65.4% from 162.14 billion in 1998 (5.73% a year on average, compounded). The World Bank has no value for 9 of the years in between; the chart leaves those gaps open rather than joining across them.
What the numbers say
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 51.9% in 2013 and the biggest yearly fall was 10.1% in 2012. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2009 to 2016 the straight-line trend is upward, about 6.08 billion a year. A straight line explains 88% of the movement over 8 observed years.

What this measures
Revenue is an increase in net worth resulting from a transaction. Grants are excluded from this figure. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This series is expressed in local currency units.
Limitations: For most countries central government finance data have been consolidated into one account, but for others only budgetary central government accounts are available. Countries reporting budgetary data are noted in the country metadata. Because budgetary accounts may not include all central government units (such as social security funds), they usually provide an incomplete picture. In federal states the central government accounts provide an incomplete view of total public finance. Data on government revenue and expense are collected by the IMF through questionnaires to member countries and by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
