Line Chart of University Student Numbers in Europe On the previous page the chart shows how the number of students in Universities in selected European countries has grown since the 1920s. It demonstrates that France saw a dramatic growth in the number of students attending universities from the 1960s. In 1968 reforms* divided several older institutions into many more new ones, a restructuring that prompted an explosion in the number of HE institutions.

Bar Chart of Coffee Output in South America On the previous page the chart shows how Cuba's exports dropped off in 1960 when the US trade embargo* began, allowing Costa Rica to flourish. Perhaps this, allied to the growth in coffee shop numbers in recent decades, explains the sharp rise in output.
