Countries with frequently missing data

When we look at choropleth maps, there's almost always "no data" for some places. The author of The Unmeasured World analysed 100 choropleth maps and created yet another map that shows for which countries that is most often the case. This quiz is based on that map.

Which countries or country-like entities with a population of > 1 million have the lowest rate of available data in choropleth maps?
Percentages shown in the hints are how often these countries DO have available data, i.e. the lower the percentage, the more often data is missing.
Two entities that are no Jetpunk countries are highlighted in orange
Despite the memes and the thumbnail, Greenland does not appear in this quiz because it has a population < 1 million
Hint: contributing factors seem to be development, political situation and population size
