Military expenditure (% of GDP), 1978–2024. Bars, not a line: a line drawn across a year the source does not report would invent an observation a reader could not tell from a measured one.

The World Bank reports 42 of the 47 years between 1978 and 2024 for Belize. The missing 5 are drawn as gaps, because a gap is what they are.
