How to read this table
The difference between rows is based on the country to which the data belongs, making the table a tool for direct comparison of indicators between them. One can compare both annual values within a single country and the situation in different states over the same period. For example, Russia's indicators can be compared with data for Austria or Belarus, tracking how the number of employed persons changed in each of these states over the last fourteen years, recorded in millions of people
What is visible in these numbers
Five highest values: Russia (73.6), Germany (43), Italy (23.6), Spain (21.2), Poland (17.1). Gap between highest and lowest — by 245.3 times. The top five account for 71.9% of the total across all positions — distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual, the dataset contains 8 periods. Of 200 possible values, 200 (100%) are filled — missing data are virtually absent
