What you get

Rank over time
Time runs left to right and rank top to bottom, first place at the top. Where two lines cross, one country overtook the other.
Even steps
The first and last years are the outer columns, and the years between fall at an even step.
Your picks or everyone
Rank your countries among themselves, or against every country with data, high first or low first.
One highlight
The first country in the list carries the highlight and the rest stay quiet.
