South Africa is nothing to sneeze at. Approximately $380 billion GDP with almost 5 times the population of Michigan.

South Africa is nothing to sneeze at FOR NOW

They have an explosive race problem now. Many whites have left, and when the natives go MauMau and kill/drive off the whites, SA will be more like ex-Rhodesia.

Moving from Canada to Australia is a promotion.

And Australia has better beaches but you can still ski there.!

Texas is a state and Australia is a country.

Make Texas a country and see what their productivity would be after a few generations.

The HORDES of illegals wouldn't bother to come here if there were no jobs waiting for them.
CUT out the promise of jobs and illegal immigration would be GONE WITH THE WIND.

“That’s good, but Belgium is not cool. All they have is battlefields, which they didn’t earn except by being between conflicting parties.”

You forgot Waffles, Chocolate and Beer! Man up!

These are total GDPs, not per capita.

The 2012 World Almanac has these figures:

Serbia: GDP $80.1 billion (per capita $10,900).
Croatia: GDP $78.1 billion (per capita $17,400)
