Metrics in this table are presented in two versions, both representing percentage of European Union (EU) total for that metric
 * As numeric values
 * As Isotype diagram, which facilitates quick overview and comparisons, and makes the content easier to digest and memorize

All European countries are included, and their relationship with the EU is listed.

For putting the metrics in a global perspective the 3 largest countries world-wide on all 3 metrics are also included (with overlaps between metrics).
 * Size: Russia (included anyway, as partly European), Canada, China
 * Population: China, India, United States
 * GDP: United States, China, Japan

Open issue: Speed of transport icons symbolize country size. If someone finds better icons for country size, that work well as really small icons, please add to talk page. Thanks.
