Top Exporting Countries in the World

This video animates merchandise exports in 2021 as moving flags. If a flag jumps from one country to the other, it means that the sender country exported 10 billion USD to the other country. If five flags jump, it means that 50 billion USD were exported.

At the top it says what the country exports most of, but in each flow there are many different types of goods.
