Copy the table to a wiki sandbox. In Calc select the table. Copy directly from it, and then paste into the visual editor, or if that does not work, into a blank visual editor table where the first header cell has been selected. It may take up to a minute. If there is a problem, then paste into Excel2Wiki first, and copy the wikitext.
To re-arrange the table using pivot tables, copy and paste the table into a spreadsheet program such as freeware LibreOffice Calc. In LibreOffice Calc, first make sure the headers are in the top row, and that they are not sticky (frozen). Then select all from the view menu. Then click on the "Pivot Table" command from the Insert menu.
The table above (even if some more columns are added) maintains one line per country for narrower browser and screen widths. So it is therefore more readable and scannable in long country tables. The table format below can greatly increase in number of lines, and require more vertical scrolling, especially if more columns are added.
If just 2 columns are being swapped within 1 table, then cut/paste editing (of those column entries) is typically faster than column-prefixing, sorting and de-prefixing. Another alternative is to copy the entire table from the displayed page, paste the text into a spreadsheet, move the columns as you will.
Normally, copying and pasting columns or rows removes the inline CSS styling such as cell colors. There is a way to break up a table (a too-wide table for example) into more tables without losing all the background colors, and other inline styling. Copy the table to 2 sandboxes (or one sandbox, and in the article itself).
