The last time Sinn Féin were topping polls was 100 years ago during and just after the war of independence. Then the various splits happened and Sinn Féin itself became irrelevant essentially not recognizing the Dail and not standing for or winning any seats between 1927 and 1997.Isn't Ireland already a republic?

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) is an American law so this is reporting which countries have been the location of recipients of bribes by American firms that were caught by the government. The FCPA is seen as something of a global turning point on open bribery and corruption as it was a first-of-kind bill that a lot of other countries emulated.

Here's a cool chart comparing the development cost of the Saturn V against the development and launch costs of the SLS (NASA's new moon rocket). The SLS program has been rightfully derided for being massively mismanaged, over budget and behind schedule and yet its costs are a fraction of the Saturn V's due to the re-use of older technology in the SLS which had to be developed new for the Saturn.

Yeah I think that would be another good way to look at the data. I'm not sure what penalties the FCPA levies though - if there is a ~uniform penalty for all violations, then just knowing the total is a good proxie for the relative number of individual offenses.Would it not be better to show the FCPA penalties as % of total financial amount of deals ?
It's actually interesting to note how legally innovative the US is. I believe RICO and some money laundering law are examples of such legislation that has been emulated or suggested for emulation by other countries.The FCPA is seen as something of a global turning point on open bribery and corruption as it was a first-of-kind bill that a lot of other countries emulated.
