*NOTE: at different times either

 

1. The number of countries

or

2. The number of “countries and geographic regions” was recorded.

 

For example, an island group that is part of a sovereign country would sometimes be recorded as a separate geographic region.

 

 From the RI Archives Department 5 June 2008


 

 

RGHF members, who have been invited to this page, may register.

 

If a DGE/N/D joins prior to their year, they will have more exposure to Rotary's Global History by their service year.

This will be beneficial to all concerned.

*Based on paid members, subscribers, Facebook friends, Twitter followers, mobile app users, History Library users, web pages, and articles about Rotary's Global History
