For instance, California would have the 8th highest GDP in the world if thought of as a country (not including the US as a whole, if so, it would be 9th). The lowest ranked US state, Vermont, would be 137th out of some 200 countries.
These figures are based on the International Monetary Fund list on List of countries by GDP (nominal) for world GDP, and the List of U.S. states by GDP (nominal) figures.
