Military expenditure (% of GDP), 1980–2022. 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 22 of the 43 years between 1980 and 2022 for Qatar. The missing 21 are drawn as gaps, because a gap is what they are.
