A year counts for whoever was in office on 1 July. A term's change runs from the year before it began to its last year with data. The years above, or a name in the timeline, set the years of the chart and of every list below. The dashed line and the small change under each term are the comparison group, over the same years. BRICS, the G7 and the G20 are the average of their member countries, and count only in years when every member has data.
Ranked by the average change per year: the best first, or the highest where neither direction is better. Only years with data count. For growth that multiplies, like GDP, the average compounds; other changes are divided by the years.
