Literacy rate, adult total (% of people ages 15 and above), 1977–2019. 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 10 of the 43 years between 1977 and 2019 for Maldives. The missing 33 are drawn as gaps, because a gap is what they are.
