Am I reading this correctly? This is a list of things where the top global exporter is a european nation?

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago

That's my interpretation as well, they sought out a commodity for each country which they are the lead exporter for.

My follow-up question is then: Shouldn't countries be able to appear multiple times in a list of that criteria, if they're a top exporter in multiple industries? Were those secondary industries excluded intentionally, or do they not exist?

Might just be whichever thing they export most out of the things they are the top exporter of. But honestly the graphic is worded a bit strange.

I think this is just the top European exporters of a given commodity. Not the top global exporters.

Y'all. Just read the text on the chart. It's not that hard.
