More stats than you can shake a stick at
Worldmapper offers chart upon chart upon chart of world statistics by country. Population over time, cereal exports, rail transport, tourism reciepts — you name it, they’ve got it.
I’d really like to see the tourism maps redrawn with the EU as one nation. Also, mouseover labels would be handy, especially for when rarely-mentioned nations get blown up to double the size of anything else on the map. (See Japan on the Fish Imports map for example.)

Very cool, thanks for the link!

This is really cool. The meat exports was kind of surprising as well. While New Zealand didn’t surprise me, Canada and Australia did.
I wish they had a convenient way of noting which pages had data and which ones had yet to be done, but otherwise a very cool site.
