Below the Life Expectancy in Russia - Female vs Male (1966-2014) it says:
"The Forbes article also states - "What’s interesting is that alcohol-related deaths fluctuated with the times. After Mikhail Gorbachev's 1985 alcohol restrictions, the authors point out, alcohol consumption – and deaths – fell by 25%. But after the fall of communism, both went way up. And after the alcohol policy reforms in 2006, consumption was reduced again by about a third." You can see the ups and downs connected with the mentioned years in the graph above."
It's remarkable how life expectancy in Russia seems to be directly correlated to alcohol consumption, as can be seen on the graph. Each event mentioned in the quote is followed by the appropriate change of the life expectancy on the graph (alcohol consumption presumably goes up, life expectancy goes down and vice versa).
The graph coloring is a bit misleading though, having blue represent the female and red the male population. :)
Had a play for awhile. I was predominantly interested to present various macroeconomic indicators over time for various Asian regional markets to potentially make a case to investors regarding new market entry for http://8-food.com/
I found that the report I had built disappeared at some point and I couldn't get it back, eg. with the back button. I also found that there was a degree of missing functionality when figures were extended through 2020 (past 2015), which was not adequately communicated.
I think there is some truth behind the argument that clicking 'save' is usually an obsolete workflow paradigm for modern web apps, where people simply expect state to auto-store within their session.

There is no data past 2015 available from World Bank, so you can't really create reports up to 2020.
