The chart that I looked at was in the education literacy of boys versus girls. The countries that I looked at were China, Honduras, and Kenya. I picked these three because they are spread across the globe instead of all clumped together to get a broader idea of literacy globally. It was very interesting to me, because Honduras and Kenya did not even show up on the map until the early 2000s and the amounts were very small; however, China's percentages were large and were recorded back to the 1980s where as the other two were not. The literacy percentages for Kenya and China (when they did show up) were very small. China's percentages have continuously risen (who's surprised?). While Kenya's even though the percentages were small, have risen over the years, but Honduras's has dropped almost consistently. I found it interesting that even though all the countries have had some types of changes, that since the 80s literacy is still how most people would expect it to be in those places.
