Rwanda has led for years: its 2003 constitution reserves at least 30% of seats for women, and women then won far more than that quota.

Garlic Consumption
🇺🇸 The United States has a garlic consumption of 0.83 kg per person per year. What is 🇰🇷 South Korea's?
| Country | Garlic consumption (kg/yr per person) |
|---|---|
| 🇺🇸 United States | 0.83 |
| 🇰🇷 South Korea | 6.2 |
South Korea is 6.2 and United States is 0.83. South Korea is far above the United States. American-Italian garlic is a restaurant habit, not a national supply.
Source: FAOSTAT (FAO), 2023: garlic item 406, production plus imports minus exports, divided by population. Computed the same way as the garlic daily. This is supply, not food eaten, and it ignores stock changes. The game uses this food-supply figure as a proxy for consumption. See the source.
