The nice thing about that page is when you scroll down to the continent/country table data there is an option to sort by date column.
Sorting by date shows most of these records were set in the 21 century.
More worryingly many of those records were set in the last half decade.
While this might be coincidence, it could also be a trend and if it is the later then things are starting to look rather ominous. Time will tell.
