Using the following code,

air = {3, 1, 6};
water = {2, 4, 3};
road = {1, 0, 7};
root = {6, 1, 2};
clist = {"Belarus", "Georgia", "Armenia"};
BarChart[
 Transpose@{air, water},
 ChartLabels -> {clist, None},
 ChartLegends -> {"change in air", "flowing water"},
 ChartStyle -> {None, "Pastel"},
 FrameLabel -> {"", "Percent Change"},
 PlotTheme -> "Business"
        ]

I produce:

enter image description here

I also produce a Table of data associated with the BarChart by:

tab = TableForm[{air, water, road, root}, 
  TableHeadings -> {{"change in air", "flowing water", 
     "construction road", "agriculture root"}, None}]

I like to combine these two pieces of outputs (Barchart and Table) in the format given below:

enter image description here

I had difficulty joining the two pieces in such a way as to align the data columns with the associated country bars and moving the ChartLabels into the table in the same way as shown above. Using tones of the gray color in Table and Background is very useful to have a user-friendly look.

  • $\begingroup$ Thanks for a very nice picture. I appreciated both answers. There is a tiny issue with the linkage between the table and bar chart. In my replication, I noticed that columns of data in the table slightly move to the right when new data columns are added. Eventually, for a larger table, the data columns do not stay underneath the bar chart's country names. Is there a way to link the total length of all the bars for a country to the associated data column centered at the total length? This way, adding new data columns will be always aligned to country groups. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 26, 2021 at 13:33
  • $\begingroup$ In my previous comment, I meant "width", not "length" of the bars. The width of the table columns should be linked to the width of all the bars for a given country. Sorry for this confusion. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 26, 2021 at 13:47
  • $\begingroup$ What have you tried and what haven't you been able to resolve? What is the maximum number of countries that would be used? Do all of the countries need to be displayed at once, or could a dynamic view of a subset of them be used? If a dynamic view, can the subset be determined by just sliding through the list or do you need to pick an arbitrary subset of at most n of them. The length of the country names could become an issue, what is the longest name that is to be used? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I added a fourth country Timor-Leste and saw that the bar chart is smaller than the table. Proportionality is destroyed. I can use the UN country codes such as USA, GBR, TUR etc to get around this name problem. I have a list of 230 countries, and I will be choosing at most 20-25 countries at a time. The numbers in the table are of the form 2.5743 maximum. Since I use Dataset[], having a Manipulate code will be more convenient for quick selection of country and data. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 26, 2021 at 16:30

    $\begingroup$ You haven't addressed the most important question relative to the issues you raise "What have you tried and what haven't you been able to resolve?" Just saying you added more data doesn't reflect any effort. In any event, this goes way beyond the scope of the OP and should be put in a new question to include what you have tried to resolve the issues. $\endgroup$

A custom DisplayFunction that adds legends and data table with columns aligned with group labels:

ClearAll[displayF]

displayF[lgnds_, tbl_, lbgrnd_: Automatic, tbgrnd_: Automatic, voffset_: 25, gap_:25] :=
 Module[{volist = Accumulate[Prepend[gap] @ ConstantArray[voffset, Length @ tbl]],
    hoffset = 1.1 Max[Ceiling[Rasterize[Style[#, "Graphics"], 
       "RasterSize"], 10][[1]] & /@ lgnds],
    hcoords = Map[MinMax @* Flatten] @
     Partition[Cases[#[[1]], (RectangleBox | Rectangle)[a_, b_, ___] :> 
       {First @ a, First @ b}, All], Length[tbl]],
    legendalign = ("MarkerLayout" /. Options[First@lgnds]) /. {"After" -> 1, _ -> -1},
    hrange, offsets, texts, tablelegend, ma},
   hrange = MinMax @ hcoords;
   ma = MovingAverage[volist, 2];
   offsets = Outer[Offset, Thread[{0, -ma}], Thread[{Mean /@ hcoords, 0}], 1];
   texts = Join @@ MapThread[Text[##, {0, 0}] &, {tbl, offsets}, 2];
   tablelegend = {lbgrnd /. Automatic -> Lighter[Gray, .5], 
     Rectangle @@ MapThread[Offset[{-#, -#2}, {hrange[[1]], 0}] &, 
        {{hoffset, 0}, volist[[{1, -1}]]}],
     tbgrnd /. Automatic -> Lighter[Gray, .8], 
     Rectangle @@ MapThread[Offset[{0, -#}, {#2, 0}] &, {volist[[{1, -1}]], hrange}],
     CapForm["Round"], Thick, Darker @ Red,  
     Table[Line[{Offset[{-hoffset, -i}, {hrange[[1]], 0}], 
          Offset[{0, -i}, {hrange[[2]], 0}]}], {i, volist}],
     Black, texts,
     MapThread[Inset[#, Offset[{- hoffset Boole[legendalign < 0], -#2}, 
         {hrange[[1]], 0}], {legendalign, Center}] &, {lgnds, ma}]};
   Show[#, Graphics @ tablelegend, PlotRange -> All]] &

Examples:

air = {3, 1, 6}; water = {2, 4, 3}; road = {1, 0, 7}; root = {6, 1, 2};
data = {air, water, road, root};

clist = {"Belarus", "Georgia", "Armenia"};

legendlabels = {"change in air", "flowing water", "construction road",
    "agriculture root"};

colors = ColorData["Rainbow"] /@ Rescale@Range[Length @ data];

legends = MapThread[
    SwatchLegend[{#}, {#2}, LegendLayout -> "Column", "MarkerLayout" -> "After"] &, 
   {colors, StringPadLeft[legendlabels]}];

BarChart[Transpose @ data,
 ChartLabels -> {Placed[clist, Below], None},
 ChartStyle -> {None, "Rainbow"},
 FrameLabel -> {{"PercentChange", None}, {None, None}},
 PlotTheme -> "Business",
 AspectRatio -> 2/3,
 ImageSize -> 600, 
 DisplayFunction -> displayF[legends, data]]

enter image description here

Let

legends2 = MapThread[SwatchLegend[{#}, {#2}, LegendLayout -> "Column"] &, 
   {colors, legendlabels}];

and use DisplayFunction -> displayF[legends2, data] to get:

enter image description here

Use

DisplayFunction -> 
  displayF[Append[{LegendMarkerSize -> 20, LegendMarkers -> "Bubble", 
     LabelStyle -> {White, 24}}] /@ legends, 
   Map[Map[Style[#, 24, White] &]] @ data, Black, Gray, 40]

to get

enter image description here

SeedRandom[1]
randomdata = RandomInteger[100, {5, 6}];

labels = RandomWord["Noun", 6];

legendLabels = Style[#, 14] & /@ Table[StringRiffle[RandomWord["Noun", 3]], 5];

swatchlegends = MapThread[
   SwatchLegend[{#}, {#2}, LegendLayout -> "Column", "MarkerLayout" -> "After"] &, 
   {ColorData["Pastel"] /@ Rescale[Range @ 5], legendLabels}];

BarChart[Transpose @ randomdata,

 PlotTheme -> "Business", AspectRatio -> 2/3, ImageSize -> 800, 
 DisplayFunction -> displayF[swatchlegends, 
   Map[Style[#, 14, White] &] /@ randomdata, Automatic, Black]]

Original Answer

Here is a quick and dirty way to do it. This can be improved further.

air = {3, 1, 6};
water = {2, 4, 3};
road = {1, 0, 7};
root = {6, 1, 2};
clist = {"Belarus", "Georgia", "Armenia"};
fig = BarChart[Transpose@{air, water}, ChartLabels -> {clist, None}, 
   ChartStyle -> {None, "Pastel"}, 
   FrameLabel -> {"", "Percent Change"}, PlotTheme -> "Business"];

tab = TableForm[{air, water, road, root}, 
   TableHeadings -> {{Row[{RGBColor[
        0.7817626205714286, 0.5184517919999999, 0.9458540697142858], 
        "change in air"}, Spacer[0.2]], 
      Row[{RGBColor[
        0.45017355885714305`, 0.7203669629714287, 0.9303642073142858],
         "flowing water"}, Spacer[0.2]], "construction road", 
      "agriculture root"}, None}];
