Economy Indicators

Compare country GDP, income, inequality, unemployment, inflation and trade in a historical snapshot.

About this tool

Explore a historical selection of 41 countries, not the whole world or live data. Metric, country count, year and search affect both the chart and its three-column table. The largest available observations are selected first; sorting that table also reorders the chart. Missing values stay in the table and are omitted only from the chart. Zero and negative observations remain valid.

For Gini, choose an observation year to compare the countries with a value from that year in the snapshot. The snapshot keeps one observation per country, so the year filter cannot recover earlier values.

The observation year is shown for every value. Gini years differ between countries, so its ranking is not a same-year comparison. All indicators opens the full searchable snapshot; its own filter and sorting are independent. Every full-table number has its year alongside it. Definitions and direct source links are available below.

GDP, exports and imports are billions of current US dollars; GDP per capita is current US dollars per person, not PPP or household income. HDI uses a 0–1 scale, Gini a 0–100 scale; unemployment and consumer-price inflation are percentages. Larger values do not mean better economic quality.

World Development Indicators are observations for 2023, or the latest nonmissing Gini observation within 2015–2023, checked against the World Bank API on 18 October 2026. HDI is the 2022 value in Table 1 of the original UNDP Human Development Report 2023/24. For example, Germany has GDP about 4,562 billion USD and HDI 0.950. Historical data can be revised by the publisher; this bundled version stays static until explicitly updated.

Metric, country count, year and both search texts remain on this browser. Reset restores the initial comparison. Rankings, open sections and chart views are not saved.
