A rank counts how many countries and territories reported a higher figure for the same year, so 1st is the highest. Only places that reported that year are counted, which is why the total changes from one measure to another. Regional and income-group totals are left out. The rank “in” a sub-region (UN M49, for example Southern Asia) counts only the places there that reported that year; a sub-region with fewer than five uses the whole region. The median country is the middle figure among every place reporting that year, not a world total or average. In a reel, a rank is among the places in that reel only, and says so.
Each figure is the newest year Philippines has a figure for, skipping a year that far fewer countries have reported so far (its early reports would make a poor comparison). Figures are rounded for reading; open “Definition and source” for the value as published. A change compares the first and latest year shown.
