GDP per capita does not mean "highest GDP", it means highest average purchasing power across the population

which country has the highest GDP

Newsflash belinda, per capita is the most accurate to look at statistics when comparing different places. I'll tell you why. It's because places have different populations of people. I know that's a hard concept for you to grasp.

which would matter if the question was "which country has the richest population" instead of "which country is the richest", hope this helps

since apparently you really are a bit thick i'll explain it a bit simpler...

Place A has 100 people and 50 of them are killed by guns.

Place B has a million people and 51 of them are killed by guns.

Which one is the most saferest? if we use your method its Place A but if we go by per capita its Place B. This is why per capita is important when talking about populations of people.

again: that would matter if the question was about the population and not the country

I'm not asking "in which country is any random person likely to be rich", I'm asking "which country, as a collective entity, is richest"

wasn't your country defeated by a bunch of rice farming asian dwarfs?

vietnam "defeated" us in the same sense that we "defeated" the british in the revolutionary war

no you said 'which country is richest'

per capita is how you work out which country is safest and the same applies to richest. if you got a billion people sharing a hundred dollars that doesnt make them live in a richer country than one with a single guy with 99 dollars. use your brain come on.

lmbo at you literally changing the meanings of words in your brain to avoid having to say america is the richest country in the world

i am sad for you that your definition of greatness is measured by dollars and not by cultural and moral richness


so first it's "qatar is the richest country in the world, suck it america" and when it's pointed out that you're twisting statistics to say something inaccurate it's "why are you so worried about money man" lmfbo

does gdp include multinational corporations because if it does, it's a worthless metric. the population is what makes up a country, not geography or market forces

in which case you would still compare the collective purchasing power of countries' populations, not their average

unless, again, the question was "which country has the richest people on average" as opposed to "which country is collectively the richest"
