 * Year || Index Number ||
 * 1850 || 10 ||
 * 1870 || 24 ||
 * 1895 || 48 ||
 * 1901 || 67 ||
 * 1911 || 96 ||
 * 1913 || 100 ||
 * || 1830 || 1850 || 1913 ||

I think the "Years of Life Expectancy at Birth" is the most significant because in all countries the life expectancy increased but in some countries such as Asia and Africa the life expectancy increase by only one year, that means those countries weren't as involved in the industrialization era. It tells us what nations were more industrialized, and what countries were more involved with the global trading network.
