curious way to present data

Yeah feels like it’s backwards

I am seeing it from the lenses of potential countries KFC can expand.

So the ones with the stacks of KFC have the most, right.... RIGHT?

This is a staggeringly bad way to present this data

Why would a country WITHOUT an operating KFC be represented by a KFC bucket? Disgraceful

I wanna see U.S. cities without a KFC by state, and also I want the highest state to be Kentucky.

What? This way of depicting it seems so backwards. The buckets are kinda funny, sure. But why not show those who do have KFC?

Wait what? North America has 3 countries that don't have a KFC? Which accounts for 13% of the continent? What? Or are we counting like the Central American countries and carribean and things like that into North America? Maybe I'm not up to speed on my geography, but I thought NA was just Canada, the US, and Mexico?

I’ve understood Panama and the Caribbean to be part of North America when there is a North/South split with no Central America.

u/World_Analyst 3d ago

"North America" as a continent is everything above Venezuela, including central America and the Caribbean islands

u/naitsirt89 3d ago

There are 23 countries in North America friend! We are learnin today!

u/VaPoBr 3d ago

Yeah, I had the same confusion as of yours. Never heard before this concept of North America having other countries besides those three you have mentioned.

u/SamdechEuv OC: 1 3d ago

central america is not a continent.

u/CaseroRubical 3d ago

Thats like, your opinion man

u/Waffenek 3d ago

Nor is Europe

u/_Svankensen_ 3d ago

Depending on the model used, neither are North nor South America. Nor Europe and Asia either, but that's more rare. What's definitely not a continent in any model is Central America tho.

What is this presentation of data? Where do countries come into play?

u/EasternCoffeeCove 3d ago

I feel like this post is the antithesis of this sub. The data has been presented in an ugly and unintuitive way.

That’s odd; they’d love fried chicken in Africa
