Overview
This is a collection of maps of countries showing the average life expectancy at birth, since 1946.
Technical notes
- I relocated the FRM and Wallis & Fatuna on later maps.
- I missed of Madeira, the Canaries and have been missed off of several older maps by mistake.
- Reunion is the slightly smaller western island, Mauritius is the slightly larger eastern island. Sadly, the maps are not constant over which is 1 and 2 pixel large island.
- I failed to recolour some coastal when changing the nation's colour on older maps by mistake.
- Examples: Sweden and Gotland, and Croatia and the Croatian islands.
