This is what the ledger can account for. Where no figure has been published for this aggregate in a country, the calibres it covers are added up instead, and those are never all of them, so the real total is higher.
Some lines report in other units and are not included in the totals.
What it adds up to
Each country, broken down into the calibres this aggregate covers. A figure stated for the aggregate itself is the headline and the calibres are what it breaks into, never an addition to it; with none, the calibres the ledger holds are added up and the answer is a floor.

4 other countries have a line for one of these calibres and no published figure. They are why the total above is a floor, and they are not listed here because there is nothing yet to list.
