It seems to be comparing personal incomes rather than country-to-country difference. Isn't it? And it goes up to 1990 only. China and India boomed after that. Eastern europe was in the process of shrugging off their chains. Africa boom started more than a decade later.
I'm talking about GDP PPP grouped by country. Coming from eastern european perspective, the difference is much smaller than it was in 90s or 70s. Both in how close we're to western europe and us and how China or India or Africa got closer to us.
