Literacy rate, adult total (% of people ages 15 and above), 1988–2022. 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 7 of the 35 years between 1988 and 2022 for Tanzania. The missing 28 are drawn as gaps, because a gap is what they are.
