So Sup Forums I was browsing Wikipedias list of countries ranked by GDP and came across this.
Iceland is literally poorer than Afghanistan and North Korea. (In case youre wondering who makes up the other 80 countries under North Korea, its basically Africa)
Icelanders justify this shit. Youre poorer than a war torn hellhole and the most regressive regime in the world
There are more people living in my city than in the whole Iceland. >GDP nominal kek

Cooper Torres
GDP per capital show is the measurement of the common wealth retard. Next time pick up a book because you are looking like a fucking fool

That list isn't done by population. There are 332,529 in Iceland and there are 32 million in Afghanistan.
Ethan Rogers
Iceland's GDP per capita is 71 times larger than Afghanistan's
Juan Johnson
Because Afghanistan and North korea have like 40 mil and 20 mil people respectively, meanwhile Iceland has like 200k inhabitants. GDP per capita is a better measurement of national wealth because it takes population into account. China has more GDP than Japan but Japanese people are 5 times as rich as the average Chinese.
Austin Wood
Even GDP per capita is a bad measurement of wealth to be fair. A lot of the things like free healthcare and other welfare things will fuck GDP rankings up.
Mainly fishing and tourism. The energy is dirtship and almost totally renewable (thanks to geothermy) so they have some special that would be economicaly inefficient outside of Iceland.
Lincoln Long
Afghanistan could outbuy Iceland. Therefore, better country/ lifestyle

It's poor but it has hardly anyone living there.
Lots of industry dried up but they are going to be OK.
Aaron Rodriguez
Singapore is based as fuck. I lived there for three years. Its morals, hardwork ethic and commitment is great.

That's what happens to a country when you combine nationalism with social conservatism and libertarian economics
