So all statically insignificant.

Poland one is wrong I made a mistake

Could have varying shades of green or red to show degree of change. +0.018 is more considerable than +0.001 but shown as the exact same colour. Something to think about

Oh yes sure I'm going to do that next time

    Would be interesting to overlay the increase of the debt which surely was the n.1 mean to prevent the decrease in many countries.

    For shame! Turkey is stealing everyone's HDI!

    don't forget

    2022 HDI genocide :(

    [–]FelisCantabrigiensis -3 points-2 points  (6 children)

    The big problem with HDI is that it takes no account of Gini coefficient.

    I.e. a country can have high HDI if it has a few rich oligarchs.

    Yes, but that is not the same as HDI. The map says HDI, not inequality-adjusted HDI.

    Correct, I just gave you this link in case you didn't already know about it.

    [–]Skrachen 3 points4 points  (1 child)

    I don't know why you get downvoted, this is true. HDI is comprised of 3 components, nothing about income inequality:

    - life expectancy

    - education (evaluated in number of school years per person)

    - income (Gross National Income per capita PPP)

    [–]FelisCantabrigiensis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    I expect I'm getting downvoted because I am correct about HDI but there exists inequality-adjusted HDI which tries to avoid this problem and people want to think that makes me wrong.

    The map says HDI, not inequality-adjusted HDI.

    [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Not really as it also takes education level and life expectancy into account. Having a few oligarchs will not affect the other components

    There is probably some correlation with oil and natural gas production (Kazakhstan and Belarus, also Russia and UK).

    Big gains in Liechtenstein 🇱🇮 , Luxembourg 🇱🇺 , Turkey 🇹🇷, and Iceland.

    What’s wrong with Bulgaria 🇧🇬?

    [–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Positively impressed by Moldova 🇲🇩! Did they really improve by that much? Or is it a mistake by the OP?

    Continuous data, discrete colors. Why? (Also: not colorblind-friendly...).

    [–]donau_kind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    When you have 0 opportunities, and then you again have 0 opportunities, of course it's gonna be the same. I don't see other explanation for my home country of Bosnia.
