Comparison Between U.S. States And Countries By GDP (nominal) Per Capita
This is a comparison between US states and countries' per capita nominal Gross Domestic Product. These figures are based on the International Monetary Fund list on List of countries by GDP (nominal) per capita for world GDP, and the List of U.S. states by GDP per capita (nominal) figures.
The US is not counted as a whole in the overall rank because this would be double counting since the states of the US are being compared to other countries. These figures are calculated using exchange rate conversions, and exchange rates fluctuate from year to year.

“He was a superior man. He did not value his bodily life in comparison with ideal things. He did not recognize unjust human laws, but resisted them as he was bid. For once we are lifted out of the trivialness and dust of politics into the region of truth and manhood.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The admission of the States of Wyoming and Idaho to the Union are events full of interest and congratulation, not only to the people of those States now happily endowed with a full participation in our privileges and responsibilities, but to all our people. Another belt of States stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“Indeed, men never know how to love. nothing satisfies them. All they know is to dream, to imagine new duties, to look for new countries and new homes. While we women, we know that we must hasten to love, to share the same bed, hold hands, and fear absence. When we women love, we dream of nothing.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
