AI disclosure: this game was designed and coded with AI help. The numbers were not made up by AI. Each one was pulled from a public dataset (World Bank, U.S. Census Bureau, USDA FoodData Central, Wikidata, Box Office Mojo, The Economist's Big Mac index) and is shown with its source. Data snapshot: October 22, 2026. Figures change over time, and sources sometimes disagree.
