Official World Bank data (listed right there in the bottom left)—it counts all international border arrivals, including millions of daily US–Mexico and EU–Poland crossings, not just overnight hotel stays 📊

You're quoting UNWTO overnight tourist numbers, whereas this chart uses World Bank data (bottom left), which counts all international border arrivals—including day-trippers and daily border crossings. When you count total border entries, France and Mexico easily clear 100M+ 📊

For religious pilgrimages (Hajj & Umrah), definitely unmatched! 🕋 In terms of total international tourist arrivals, though, Saudi Arabia pulls around 27M–30M today—making it #1 in the Middle East, while France still holds the overall global #1 spot at 100M+

This frame is from 1996—back then, Thailand pulled around 7.2M arrivals, just shy of the 8M cutoff here. Watch until the 2010s when Thailand explodes to 35M+ and rockets into the global top 10! 🇹🇭📈

Joining the WTO in 2001 was the ultimate cheat code. Going from not even cracking the top 20 in 1973 to becoming the world's #1 factory in a single generation is unmatched 📈🇨🇳

Wait until the 2020 frame when almost every other country locked down and Mexico kept its borders open—literal Super Saiyan God mode for tourism 🇲🇽🐉📈

Bro, this frame is 1971—Bangladesh was literally fighting for its independence that exact year! 🇧🇩 Fast forward to today, and it’s the world's #2 garment exporter clothing half the planet 👕📈

World Bank datasets have missing reporting entries for France between 1997 and 2003, so the chart drops it until data resumes in 2004—jumping straight back to its rightful #1 throne 🇫🇷📊
