01Why Saint Pierre and Miquelon? The Export Fingerprint

Saint Pierre and Miquelon's chart is led by Preparations of fish, crustacenas, & molluscs at 46%, but the supporting blocks matter just as much — the combination is what makes this fingerprint readable.

#Export categoryValueShare
1 Preparations of fish, crustacenas, & molluscs $2M 46.2%
2 Fish, Crustaceans & Molluscs $1M 31.7%
3 Plastics & articles thereof $0M 5.9%
4 Glass & glassware $0M 3.4%
5 Optical, photo, & film equipment; medical instruments $0M 2.0%

Total exports: $3M (BACI, 2023 trade flows). The treemap you played is drawn from exactly these numbers.

Together the top five categories cover 89% of Saint Pierre and Miquelon's export basket — the rest of the chart splinters into the small mosaic blocks along the edge. In Tradle terms: the skill was recognizing the big blocks, not memorizing the fringe.

02How to Solve It

Lead with the giant block. Preparations of fish, crustacenas, & molluscs narrows the world to a short list of exporters; one anchor guess in North America plus the distance clue should close it within three tries.

If you used the hint ladder above, the ideal exit was Hint 3 — the top export practically names the country. Every 1% of proximity equals roughly 200 km, so read your percentage as a radius, not a verdict.

The general method — anchor guess, arrow, proximity math — is covered in our how to play Tradle guide, and the signature-exports cheat sheet lives in the strategy section.
