this plot does not show a linear relationship between GDP and percent literate, countries with a lower GDP do seem more likely to have a lower percent of the population that can read and write.

sns.scatterplot(x=countries['GDP (\$ per capita)'], y=countries['Literacy (%)'])
plt.show()


## how many countries are in each region of the world?

sns.countplot(y=countries['Region'])
plt.show()


Sub-Saharan Africa contains the most countries in this list.
