The line graph illustrates how many international tourists visited three different countries — Country A, Country B, and Country C — over a 25-year period, from 1990 to 2015.
Overall, the number of foreign visitors increased in all three countries, although at different rates. Country A consistently attracted the largest number of tourists, while Country C remained the least visited throughout the period. Nevertheless, all countries experienced upward trends, with significant growth especially between 2000 and 2010.
In 1990, Country A welcomed approximately 10 million tourists, which was double the number of visitors received by Country B and over three times that of Country C. Over the next decade, tourism in Country A grew steadily, reaching 18 million by 2000. During the same period, the figures for Country B also climbed, rising from around 5 to 12 million. Country C’s growth was more modest, increasing from 3 to around 6 million tourists.
Between 2000 and 2010, all three countries saw a sharp rise in international tourism. Country A peaked at 25 million visitors in 2010, although this was followed by a slight dip to 23 million by 2015. Country B continued to grow steadily, eventually reaching over 21 million tourists, while Country C saw the most dramatic relative increase, ending at approximately 15 million visitors in 2015.
To summarize, although Country A remained the most popular destination over the period shown, the gap between it and the other two countries narrowed, indicating that international tourism became more evenly distributed among the three by the end of the period.
