Half-agreed. A stacked area chart would be perfect for this.

I would take pretty much anything with a temporal axis over these pie-charts. Also I would favor stacked bars with optional trend lines over area charts in the case of countable annual data like this.

After which amount of data points is it considered recommended to switch to interpolated line/area charts?
