Nominal GDP per head statistics[]


  • Note: GDP per head/per capita statistics start at various times, with some like USSR and Saudi Arabia starting in 1970. Modern figures some times quote retrospectively the USSR's republics' statistics as if they were independent nations, which they were not, but because the USSR was so dominated by Russia that it's stats per capita can be use in place of the USSR's. Modern figures some times quote retrospectively Yemen, Vietnam and Germany as if they a united and not divided in two by Cold War Geopolitics. N. Yemen, S. Vietnam and W. Germany had about 33% more economic production than S. Yemen, N. Vietnam and E. Germany. Modern figures some times quote retrospectively Ethiopia's and Eritrea's republics' statistics as if they were independent nations, which they were not, but because the old Ethiopia was so dominated by modern Ethiopia that it's stats per capita can be use in place of the old Ethiopia's. Modern figures some times quote retrospectively for Czechia, Slovakia and the former Yugoslavia as if they independent nations, which they were not, but the united figures were roughly between those of Slovakia and Czechia for Czechoslovakia and between to the of Serbia and Croatia for Yugoslavia. Modern figures some times quote retrospectively for N. Sudan and S. Sudan as if they were independent nations, which they were not, but Sudan was so dominated by N. Sudan that it's stats per capita can be use in place of Sudan's.
