Note that if you are looking for current top 20, you bias your findings towards winners.
Not that it matters a whole lot in this case, but it’s a general word of caution for that type of stat.

Can we see the biggest difference in a list? Maybe grouped by the income/development level so it makes more sense?

Congratulations to China for reversing its fortunes so quickly! By the way, these numbers are based on the year 2022. China has almost certainly already crossed into the “Very High Human Development” category, above .800.

Having spent time in China, it’s hard to comprehend how quickly the quality of life has improved for so many people. We’re talking subsistence farming to western middle class in a generation for millions of people. That’s why the are so tolerant of Xi Jinping. Their lives are much better under his government than they were for generations before.
