There are abo 25% of countries in there and it doesn't look like doctored data and agrees with lived experience. Your claims are baseless.
Are you concerned that nothing in your reply addresses whether the countries were chosen to support a trend?
No pattern is obvious. There are no backwater countries, but otherwise most important ones are in there. You cannot plausibly cherry pick this effect while choosing so very many countries. A large part of global gdp is in there.
I can only laugh at this. "Most important countries", yes no pattern.
