Natural resources, measured
Ordered by the country’s largest How this is computedA country's resources are ordered by its largest share of world output on any production column of each table (e.g. palladium within PGMs).Method →Code →. Values are USGS (minerals) or EIA (energy); an “e” marks a USGS estimate.

Sanctions that name it
No EU regime and no OFAC country program. Thematic lists (terrorism, cyber, human rights) can still name its people and companies.
Read 2026-09-26 from the EU Sanctions Map and OFAC’s program list. A regime targets what its measures name — listed persons, goods, services — not the whole country. UK: gov.uk publishes each regime as prose, with no machine-readable list of measures per regime; not read.
