819. The Pareto principle, also known as the 80-20 rule states that for many events, roughly 80% of the effects come form 20% of the causes.

This phenomenon was first identified when it was found that 80% of Italy's land was owned by 20% of its population. Similar results have been found in the USA, France and the UK. The theory was further supported by its founder when he discovered that 20% of the peapods in his garden contained 80% of the peas.

(a) Italy
(b) USA
