Re: Maps-Maps-Maps! ? Reply #260 – 2017-11-09, 12:17:49 I don't dispute that most of North Africa is probably closer to something in between "Europe" and "the Middle East" than what is popularly understood by "Africa", although all of Africa is united in being formerly subjugated by European colonial powers. But when it says European countries, putting Morocco smack dead in the middle kind of jumps out at me. 1 Likes

In the past as in present times. However, the methods got a more 'human face'...And not only European powers which gradually are loosing their power there.

Re: Maps-Maps-Maps! ? Reply #266 – 2018-01-02, 07:35:22 How life expectancy in U.S. counties compares to other countriesQuoteIn 2014, the United States ranked 41st in the world in life expectancy, with an average American expected to live to age 78. But, like most averages, that doesn't paint the whole picture. Life expectancy is more like Norway's in some parts of the country and more like Kazakhstan's in others.That's why it's more useful to look at it county by county. Here's how life expectancy in U.S. counties compare to averages around the world.

Here's how life expectancy in U.S. counties compare to averages around the world.That made me curious how it would be per municipality in other countries. StatBel doesn't seem to offer nice maps, but De Standaard made one with the info. The difference between Flanders and Wallonia is quite striking when presented like that. If I were the earlier article, I'd say Flanders is like the Netherlands/Norway, and Wallonia is like, um, Estonia? For the Netherlands we have this (region) and this (municipality).(All maps are interactive; I suppose I could screenshot them for picture embedding.)
Re: Maps-Maps-Maps! ? Reply #268 – 2018-01-02, 10:40:14 Even city boroughs can have large differences. From Still large differences of life expectancy within Oslo (Norwegian) we can see graphs like this (changes for men in Oslo boroughs 2000-2011). Incidentally Sagene was the borough I used to live in, maybe good that I moved out… On the other hand a 4 year increase of life expectancy in 8 years is not bad.
