    "Period life expectancy is a metric that summarizes death rates across all age groups in one particular year. For a given year, it represents the average lifespan for a hypothetical group of people, if they experienced the same age-specific death rates throughout their lives as the age-specific death rates seen in that particular year.",
    "Records are only shown for countries in the Human Mortality Database. Prior to 1950, we use HMD (2023) data. From 1950 onwards, we use UN WPP (2022) data."
