Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the monetary market value of all final goods and services made within a country during a specific period. GDP helps to provide a snapshot of a country’s economy and can be calculated using expenditures, production, or incomes. World GDP is the added total of the gross national income for every country in the world. There are two main systems of common currency conversion: nominal and PPP. PPP GDP is used to measure the economic growth and living standards in a country.
It’s less exact than nominal GDP and often hinges on estimates rather than calculations. The two largest economies in the world as measured by nominal GDP are the United States and China. PPP GDP stays relatively stable from year to year and isn’t significantly impacted by shifts in the exchange rate. China is the second-largest economy considering nominal GDP, at $14.14 trillion, and the largest using GDP (PPP), which is $27.31 trillion. The U.S. is known globally for cultivating a society that encourages entrepreneurship, which encourages innovation and, in turn, leads to economic growth.
China has approximately $23 trillion in natural resources, 90% of which are rare earth metals and coal. The United Kingdom is ranked 23rd for GDP per capita which is $42,558. The UK is expected to fall to the seventh-largest economy by 2023 with a GDP of $3.27 trillion. In 2016, the UK was the tenth-largest exporter of goods in the world, exporting goods to 160 countries worldwide. According to World Bank, France has a nominal GDP of $2.71 trillion. France’s GDP per capita is $42,877.56, the 19th highest in the world, and its GDP (PPP) is $2.96 trillion. And France has unfortunately experienced high unemployment rates in recent years: a 10% unemployment rate was recorded for 2014, 2015, and 2016 and it declined to 9.681% in 2017.
