Where do the figures come from?
How much the economy grew in real terms over the year — output at constant prices, so inflation does not count as growth. Source: World Bank, mostly 2025. Only independent states are ranked; territories are listed separately. A country’s continent follows Natural Earth; the handful of island states it files under the open ocean are placed by their UN subregion.
