The Global South

I’m curious what the metric is (money? tonnage?), and what the relationship is between imports and exports. I feel like showing imports / exports separately would show a lot more complete picture of what is happening.

Edit: I got curious and spent way too much time on it lol

That's according to monetary value, and sourced from tradingeconomics.com. It's actually not all that different from the consolidated chart, but there are some interesting little things including obviously the big trade surplus with the US.
