Note: Only 40 percent of the highest phone-call traffic (more than 58 500 phone-call minutes, respective the 3rd quintile of the rank-ordered distribution in the European network in 2010) and only phone traffic to Europe is depicted. The thickness of arrows is proportional to the phone traffic from the country where the arrow starts to the country where the arrow ends. The size of European country nodes is proportional to the incoming phone traffic in that country. The size of arrows and nodes is directly comparable across the years.
Data: International Telecommunication Union (ITU) (years 1983, 1985, 1990, 1995) and Telegeography (years 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015).
