Gapminder is an incredible tool. It not only visualizes the growth of different aspects of a country and allows compare and contrast with others, it also allows us to experience history. It allows us to better contextualize periods in time of a particular place by drawing parallels between the place of the past and a country with a similar present.
The series of talks by Hans Gosling are very good. They cover topics from Co2 emissions to lifespan, education and other living conditions.
