The maps count fully self governing territories as separate countries. So somewhere where the locals have little control like Puerto Rico is not included, but a place that is fully self governing, but not quite independent, like the Falkland Islands is included. Last year Hong Kong moved towards the first category, but the locals still have a small amount of autonomy, so Hong Kong may still qualify.

Depending on source, Finlands' biggest export could have already changed from Refined Fuel Products (20%-35% drop from very dominating position) towards Industrial Goods and/or Machinery. And with so many Refinery deals failing in 2020-2021 (due mostly political resistance), it'll likely happen soon-ish if not already.

Greenland, meanwhile, used to be a major exporter of a mineral called cryolite, which is very important in the aluminium production industry. It was in fact the only place in the world where this mineral was known to exist in concentration high enough for economically viable extraction. The mines were depleted decades ago and now all cryolite used in industry has to be produced synthetically from other minerals. To this day, cryolite remains the only natural resource on earth that humans have totally depleted.

When you see how many countries have a top export of oil you realise why it’s so hard to convince those in power to switch to clean energy. It’s interesting that Europe is the continent with very few exporting large sums of oil and it’s also the continent furthest ahead in terms of switching to green energy.

[@zisispit]

thats the reason europe turns green, in order not to be energy depended on foreign powers like russia

[@alexpotts6520]

I think it would be interesting to know who is importing all this oil. Ultimately, climate change is a demand-led problem, it's more the fault of the people pouring it into their gas-guzzlers than the folk digging it out of the ground. So we need to know who is buying all this oil and then put pressure on them to curb their thirst for the stuff.

[@death_parade]

Not exactly. India's top export is refined fractions of crude, but at the same time, India's largest import (till a couple years ago) was crude oil. That is so because (despite having the world's 4th largest refinery capacity after US, China and Russia) India has no major domestic reserves of crude oil. This has led to the entire Government of India to focus on a long term strategy to reduce crude oil imports because they are the largest/2nd largest chunk of our import bill and we are running a net trade deficit. As a result, Indian Government has pushed massively for renewables and EVs, and the latest push is towards Green Hydrogen production. Entire Indian Railways has gone electric, phasing out Diesel locos entirely (no other major railway network in the world can claim to be even close). So despite refined fractions being top export of India, India is actually working hard to switch to green energy (India is the only major nation to meet and exceed its Paris Climate Deal's goals, with some goals being completed 7 years in advance). *This is a complete antithesis to your assertion.*

A more interesting map would be the largest exports as a percentage of the global market (not including exclusive exports). So a country may export a lot of gold or diamonds in relation to it's own economy but they may only be 4-5% of the global market, whereas the same country may produce less Tuna in relation to it's own economy, but that might account for 40% of the global market and so that is what it would be labelled for.

Also worth pointing out that most exported products doesn't translate straight to most exporting industry. Like in Finland refined oil maybe most exported product (though I also found link that said it to be machinery and electronics they're both around 12 %). But Forestry sector in Finland makes over 20 % of all exports. It's divided in to paper, timber, wood and pulp in terms of products.

I guess the way it works is he brings in a load of milk from local farmers to the dairy at night while they unload that trailer and process the milk he goes to the port to pick up a load of juice to set in a holding area at the dairy. He then pick up the milk trailer which has already been emptied and cleaned and heads home. From what I gathered milk is processed between 6p.m. and 6a.m. and juice from 8a.m. to 8pm allowing an hour between process times to flush the pipes and clean the tanks in the building.

While most of these countries are culturally more akin to those of South America, they are a part of the continent of North America (Central America not being its own continent). As many people erroneously see North America as only consisting of Canada, the U.S.A and Mexico, I believe it is important to have North America grouped together correctly as much as possible to help reinforce the true scope of the continent.
