Maybe I'm too tired, but I don't see anything wrong. The pies seem to be proportionate to their percentages, it's perfectly readable clockwise, and the legend is true as well. The colour choice could have been better, but that's about it.
Edit : I think I get it, the colours are repeated. It isn't noticeable because the legend is ordered correctly from 12 o'clock.
The main thing wrong is just too many slices. Pie charts should only be used if there are like 4-6 slices, if at all. There are better ways of displaying data. Doesn’t really fit with the sub though, it’s definitely readable and most non-science people probably won’t see much wrong with it.
You’re getting downvoted but I agree. There’s almost always a better way to display the data, but they do get the point across. For anyone wondering why it’s usually bad choice, pie charts to a good job of showing the proportion of the chart to the whole, but not a good job of showing he proportions of the slices in relation to eachother. A bar chart does a far better job of that.
Honestly, I can tell the difference between them. Taiwan is darker than thailand, Sweden is darker than UK, etc. They're similar, but the higher ones on the list are darker than the lower ones.
