How to read this chart

This source counts gold too. These assets are not bank cash, private wealth or public debt.

What this does not show

A large reserve does not prove a place is rich. Different money systems need different reserves.

  • Official reserves are not the wealth of a country or its people.
  • Some source values are estimates and can be revised.
  • This stock keeps its source unit. A yearly mean rate is not a rate on the stock date.
  • Borders, coverage and methods can change over a long history.

Make the case for change

A chart can show a gap. It cannot prove what caused it. Read the evidence, the costs and the change we seek.
