The Area In Blue (Monaco) Has Almost 3X The GDP of The Area in Red (Greenland)

On the map above the tiny blue dot is Monaco which is a tiny 2.08 km2 (0.80 sq mi) but has a population of 38,367 and a total nominal GDP of $8.784 billion USD.

And the big red area is Greenland, which is a much larger 2,166,086 km2 (836,330 sq mi) with 56,583 people but a nominal GDP of just $3.08 billion USD.

So in summary, Greenland is 1,041,387.5x the size of Monaco, has 47% more people, yet has a total GDP that’s just 35% the size.

I think this makes it the most extreme size imbalance between GDPs in the world unless you can think of any other ones.
