The bar chart illustrates the whole manufacturing production in Europe, Asia, and other parts of the world over a 160-year period, from 1840 to 2000. To measure units, percentages are used.
Overall, at the beginning, Asia had the largest percentage, while the rest of the world had a minimal percentage of manufacturing production. At the end of time, the other parts of the world had risen steeply, even though Asia and Europe had sharp declines.
In 1840, Asia ranked at exactly a half percent, but by 1920, it had a significant decrease of 20%. However, from 1920 to 2000, it had a dramatic increase of around 45%. Nevertheless, in 2000, Asia still had the largest percentage.
However, Europe and the rest of the world significantly went up and moderately dropped during that time. Europe graded at 40%, and by 1920, it had a significant growth rate of 50%. From 1920 to 2000, it had a moderate fall of around nearly a third percent. Furthermore, the remainder of the world ranked at 10%. By 1960, the rest of the world had a dramatic rise of around 38%, and then it had a slow drop of around 32%. In 1960, Europe and the remainder of the world had a similar percentage of manufacturing production, at about 38%.
