The average for 2023 based on 184 countries was 0.54 percent. The highest value was in the USA: 26.47 percent and the lowest value was in Andorra: 0 percent. The indicator is available from 1980 to 2023. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

In 2025, the United States had the largest economy in the world, with a gross domestic product of over 30 trillion U.S. dollars. China had the second largest economy, at around 19.23 trillion U.S. dollars. Recent adjustments in the list have seen Germany's economy overtake Japan's to become the third-largest in the world in 2023, while Brazil's economy moved ahead of Russia's in 2024. Global gross domestic product Global gross domestic product amounts to almost 110 trillion U.S. dollars, with the United States making up more than one-quarter of this figure alone. The 12 largest economies in the world include all Group of Seven (G7) economies, as well as the four largest BRICS economies. The U.S. has consistently had the world's largest economy since the interwar period, and while previous reports estimated it would be overtaken by China in the 2020s, more recent projections estimate the U.S. economy will remain the largest by a considerable margin going into the 2030s.The gross domestic product of a country is calculated by taking spending and trade into account, to show how much the country can produce in a certain amount of time, usually per year. It represents the value of all goods and services produced during that year. Those countries considered to have emerging or developing economies account for almost 60 percent of global gross domestic product, while advanced economies make up over 40 percent.

The "Global Country Rankings Dataset" is a comprehensive collection of metrics and indicators that ranks countries worldwide based on their socioeconomic performance. This datasets are providing valuable insights into the relative standings of nations in terms of key factors such as GDP per capita, economic growth, and various other relevant criteria.

Researchers, analysts, and policymakers can leverage this dataset to gain a deeper understanding of the global economic landscape and track the progress of countries over time. The dataset covers a wide range of metrics, including but not limited to:

Economic growth: the rate of change of real GDP- Country rankings: The average for 2021 based on 184 countries was 5.26 percent.The highest value was in the Maldives: 41.75 percent and the lowest value was in Afghanistan: -20.74 percent. The indicator is available from 1961 to 2021.

World GDP for 2023 was 100.000 trillion US dollars, a 0% increase from 2022.

</ul>GDP at purchaser's prices is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in current U.S. dollars. Dollar figures for GDP are converted from domestic currencies using single year official exchange rates. For a few countries where the official exchange rate does not reflect the rate effectively applied to actual foreign exchange transactions, an alternative conversion factor is used.

In 2025, Luxembourg was the country with the highest gross domestic product per capita in the world. Of the 20 listed countries, 13 are in Europe and five are in Asia, alongside the U.S. and Australia. There are no African or Latin American countries among the top 20. Correlation with high living standards While GDP is a useful indicator for measuring the size or strength of an economy, GDP per capita is much more reflective of living standards. For example, when compared to life expectancy or indices such as the Human Development Index or the World Happiness Report, there is a strong overlap - 14 of the 20 countries on this list are also ranked among the 20 happiest countries in 2024, and all 20 have "very high" HDIs. Misleading metrics? GDP per capita figures, however, can be misleading, and to paint a fuller picture of a country's living standards then one must look at multiple metrics. GDP per capita figures can be skewed by inequalities in wealth distribution, and in countries such as those in the Middle East, a relatively large share of the population lives in poverty while a smaller number live affluent lifestyles.

This dataset provides values for GDP reported in several countries. The data includes current values, previous releases, historical highs and record lows, release frequency, reported unit and currency.

The average for 2022 based on 175 countries was -2.64 percent. The highest value was in Kiribati: 35.68 percent and the lowest value was in Palau: -60.03 percent. The indicator is available from 1960 to 2024. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

The statistic shows a ranking of the 20 countries with the largest gross domestic product (GDP) at purchasing power parity in 2017. In 2017, Thailand ranked 20th with a PPP-adjusted GDP of about 1,240.05 billion U.S. dollars.

This statistic presents the results of a survey on Thailand's perceived and actual economic ranking among the world's top 200 countries as of October 2018. According to data published by Ipsos, Thai respondents underestimated their country's global economic ranking by far. On average, the respondents thought that Thailand´s GDP ranked number 101 among top 200 countries, when actually Thailand was the 26th largest economy in the world.

In 1938, the year before the Second World War, the United States had, by far, the largest economy in the world in terms of gross domestic product (GDP). The five Allied Great Powers that emerged victorious from the war, along with the three Axis Tripartite Pact countries that were ultimately defeated made up the eight largest independent economies in 1938.

When values are converted into 1990 international dollars, the U.S. GDP was over 800 billion dollars in 1938, which was more than double that of the second largest economy, the Soviet Union. Even the combined economies of the UK, its dominions, and colonies had a value of just over 680 billion 1990 dollars, showing that the United States had established itself as the world's leading economy during the interwar period (despite the Great Depression).

Interestingly, the British and Dutch colonies had larger combined GDPs than their respective metropoles, which was a key motivator for the Japanese invasion of these territories in East Asia during the war. Trade with neutral and non-belligerent countries also contributed greatly to the economic development of Allied and Axis powers throughout the war; for example, natural resources from Latin America were essential to the American war effort, while German manufacturing was often dependent on Swedish iron supplies.

The table shows quarterly GDP levels around the world, i.e. the value of all goods and services produced on the territory of the country over a three month period. This is nominal GDP so its changes over time reflect both changes in the amounts of goods and services produced as well as their prices. The first column of the table is the most recent GDP number released by the national governments. Please note that we update these data on a daily basis. The second column is the percent change in the nominal GDP from the previous quarter. The third column is the percent change from the same quarter last year. The latter one is a useful measure of growth as it eliminates seasonal factors by comparing the GDP levels at the same time of the current and the previous year. Real GDP growth, i.e. excluding price changes, is typically about 1-3 percent per year. Therefore, nominal rates of growth well in excess of that are definitely due to rising prices much more than to rising output levels.
