Visual Representation of World Economics

January 18th, 2011

I got this from 22 Words, who got it from The Economist.  It's a map of the United States, labeling each state with a country that has an economy of a similar size.  Such an approach to economics, of course, never provides the complete pictures; still, it's a pretty cool representation of world economics -- and particularly the role that the United States plays in the world economy.  My home state of Ohio, for instance, has an economy roughly the same as Belgium.  My other home, the Netherlands, would be most accurately compared with the state of Florida.

Crazy, huh?
