1. The graph suggests that the world most likely experienced a worldwide recession around the year .

2. From the year when North America and Europe experienced the largest difference in GDP. it took years for the laggard among the two to catch up to the other one's level of GDP from that year.

For Q1, in 2008, all 4 are showing great dip in GDP and in 1982 NA & Europe struggled with declined GDP.
I think 2008 should be the answer. Why it is 1982!
Please explain.
We are talking about worldwide recession, not about largest recession in one.

If you take a closer look you will find that in 2008 there was no recession in Latin America and Soviet Union rather the situation was reversed in these two regions. While in 1982 all four region faced recession.

­You see there is a deviation towards downward region and it is more in 2008 . It cant be 1982 . Also how is it 9 years for second one
