The Summary page will provide an "at a glance" overview of chart performance around the world. I've chosen eight of the nine countries either because they have a large record market, or they were a particularly strong territory for Abba. Sweden is included as it's their home country. Special thanks to Toby Petterson for keeping an eye on this to ensure accuracy!
Please note that "Greatest Hits" was not released in Australia and The Netherlands, and the #1 positions noted are for "The Best of Abba". Compilations titled "The Best of Abba" and "The Very Best of Abba" were territory specific and not a cohesive international release.
