The bar chart compares the figures for overall industrial output in two different continents and the rest of the globe, from 1814 to 2000.
Overall, it is clear that European and other parts of the world experienced a gradual downward trend compared to the initial figures, while Asia represented dramatic growth by the end of the period.
In 1840, the range of the Asian production made up 50% of the total, being at its peak, whereas Europe was 10 lower (40%) and the rest of the globe showed the lowest point (10%). Once Europe and the other countries increased in their figures for industrial output, Asian countries significantly decreased by 20% in 1920, before a steady growth by over 45%, while Europe, from its peak with 30% in 1920 to 2000, illustrated a gradual fall as the other parts of the world, after reaching their highest point in 1690, by roughly 40%.
The tendencies of the all categories drastically differed throughout the period , though in 1960, the both Europe and the other parts of the globe accounted for roughly 40% showing completely the similar percentages. In comparison, Asia and Europe illustrated dramatically different trends, while Asia grew, after hitting a low point, Europe dropped, after reaching maximum. After all, by the end of the period, Europe and other countries remained approximately the same, by over 30%, whereas the amount of Asian production highly rose.
