Interesting statistics on GDP per capita for 2025. I looked at the latest data on the world's poorest countries — the picture is quite grim. South Sudan leads with just $251, followed by Yemen at $417 and Burundi at $490. These are really low numbers.

Next are the Central African Republic, Malawi, Madagascar, Sudan, Mozambique — all in the $500-$700 range. DRC, Niger, Somalia are also in this region. I understand that Nigeria at $807 looks somewhat better, but it's still critically low for a country of that size.

Looking further down the list of the poorest countries, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mali, Chad — all below $1,000. Rwanda is just above $1,000, Ethiopia around $1,066. Even India at the end of the list is $2,878, and that’s still one of the largest economies by absolute numbers.

All this shows the scale of inequality. Most of these countries are in Africa, with some Asian countries like Nepal, Laos, and Bangladesh. When you see numbers like these, you understand why there are such serious social problems there. The numbers speak for themselves.
