On record, the biggest yearly rise was 28.85 percentage points in 1993 and the biggest yearly fall was 27.27 percentage points in 1994. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2014 to 2023 the straight-line trend is downward, about 0.41 percentage points a year. A straight line explains 61% of the movement over 10 observed years.
