How to make a graph like this in Illustrator

[Stefan Cargoski]

Hi community.

I see there are some options in AI to make a graph. But I'm after something like this which is displayed in wikepedia.

I think this has been discussed in a thread a couple of months/years ago. You would have to abuse the diagram tools quite a bit to get it.

Or you take a look at 9-slice guides in symbols. But then it would just be a graphic. 

You could also check out if the commercial third party plugin Datylon can do it.

Or Excel. And then copy it from there and brush it up in Illustrator.

Thank you Monica, I'll be looking into it.

Kind regards.
