Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It also is using absolute numbers rather than any kind of normalized scale. If a country of 5 billion people has a million leave that's not exactly the same thing as a country with a population of 10 million having a million leave. A lot of these sorts of things suffer from this problem where the maps end up matching very closely to maps of population density.
