The table illustrates that the way people between the ages of 30 and 50 entertain themselves differs widely from country to country.
The sentence is a bit weildy though.

I agree with Randy's comments. But, while Randy's sentence is fine, I personally would have added another word to the original sentence to be totally clear. "That entertainment of people......differs widely between countries." I would have said either "entertainment choices of" or "entertainment preferences of". Just a personal preference though.
