## Expected Data <a href="#expected-data" id="expected-data"></a>

The maps expect data in a two-column format, with the data label (e.g. country name) in the first column and the corresponding value in the second column (the column name itself does not matter), such as:

| Country        | GDP     |
| -------------- | ------- |
| Germany        | 3863344 |
| United Kingdom | 2743586 |
| France         | 2707074 |
| Italy          | 1988636 |
