Industrial output in Western Europe 1947-1951

In the six years after the Second World War (which ended in 1945), industrial output across Western Europe grew exponentially. In 1947, neutral countries such as Sweden and Spain were already recording significantly larger industrial outputs than before the war, although countries that had been devastated by the war, such as Austria, France, and Italy, took slightly longer.
By 1951, at the beginning of what is known as Western Europe's "Golden Age", output was over seventy percent higher than it's pre-war level in a number countries. This was true for both agriculture-based countries, such as Ireland and Italy, as well as the heavily-industrialized countries of Belgium and the United Kingdom.
