Yep, true, Africa and one of top global economies so far.

Russia's nominal GDP per capita: 14,818 in USD.

Compared to the United States: 53,101.

Like the Soviet Union, the only thing keeping Russia afloat is oil prices. Hence why any Russian with brains is fleeing the country.

And by the way from a video in my post

Your video was and is still worthless, just like your posts in general.

Compare the total national GDP to Saudi Arabia, which has similar oil output to prove you wrong.
Also 15,000 PPP per capita is that makes a country into a first world. It is between 15 and 20,000 for Russia.
Not to mention it is mostly drugged down by a few depressive provinces: stans and a some commie-infested ‘red states’ bordering Ukraine. If not for them a GDP per capita would be around $30,000 on par with Finland, Israel and South Korea.
And if we are talking about West Siberia it is clearly ahead of US average.
