World Bank Group (2022)

Estimation of the World Bank Group for 2022. The data is filtered according to the list of countries in Europe. In the World Bank Group list and, accordingly, in this list, there are no mini-states with a population of several tens of thousands of people (Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, Vatican City). The values in the World Bank Group tables are rounded. All calculations are based on raw data, so due to the nuances of rounding, in some places, illusory inconsistencies of indicators arose, with a size of 0.01 year.

In 2014, some of the world's leading countries had a local peak in life expectancy, so this year is chosen for comparison with 2019 and 2022.
