Roles open is every role a person in that country can apply for. Name the country is how many of those adverts name that country, or a region of Africa that includes it.
Why no country has fewer than 453
451 roles don't name any country: 252 are open worldwide, 193 across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and 6 across Africa. People in all 54 African countries can apply for those, so every country starts at 451. Togo, The Gambia and Sierra Leone are each named in just 2 more roles, which gives them 453.
If few adverts name your country, those 451 roles are your main list. Read each one first, because a worldwide role can still ask for certain time zones or languages.
