How to read this diagram
Annual economic output divided by population, expressed in US dollars at constant 2015 prices. Plot eleven annual positions in six explicitly selected economies: United States, China, India, Germany, Brazil and South Africa. Every panel uses the same years and one shared linear vertical scale anchored at zero. Missing values break lines; no interpolation, rescaling to individual countries or smoothing is applied. This is an editorial selection, not a world ranking.
186 of 217 retained reporting economies have values in 2025; coverage is not a complete world ranking. Highest does not imply best.
GDP per capita measures average economic output, not wages, disposable income, or household wealth.
Constant 2015 US dollars are not purchasing-power-parity dollars. Cross-country levels do not measure the cost of living or what residents can buy.
National accounts methods and revisions may differ across countries.
Source notes and numeric strings remain unchanged in downloads. The latest retained reporting year can differ across datasets.
The data include all annual positions, including missing observations. Panels compare levels in the source units, not indexed growth.
