Discover statistics in a fun way with ‘My country in a bubble’

If you want to start exploring the world of statistics, Eurostat has the perfect visualisation tool for you: ‘My country in a bubble’. 

This tool was created for beginners, being a nice addition to any classroom, making statistics fun to access and understand.

The bubbles cover a wide range of data from population to economy and environment, giving all users, not only students, a large statistical playground. The ‘People’ chapter includes data on population by age, young and elderly people, life expectancy, youth unemployment, poverty and tourism; ‘Economy’ includes GDP per person, food prices and expenditure, government expenditure and price levels; and ‘Environment’ covers everything from renewables and waste to organic agricultural areas and electric cars. 

Click on the theme you are interested in, and the related topics will appear. You choose your favourite and the bubbles for the EU, Member States, and EFTA countries move on the screen to their position in the plot area.
