I placed life expectancy on the y axis to see that New Zealand had one of the higher life expectancies  at 81 slightly over the United States's expectancy at 79. Additionally, this graph shows that more children are out of primary school at 1,833 million in New Zealand compared to only 1,023 million in the United States. It is also important to note that the United States has a drastically larger size population at about 310 million compared to New Zealand's 4.37 million. I would definitely be interested in learning more about how the educational systems differ between the two countries.
