Had you given me an opportunity to lead you in 2008,this time you wouldn’t have been on this list, you would,be been among the richest countries. Nevertheless just give me 90 days, your country will be uplifted and you will have more money in your pockets.

This ranking is bogus. No way Niger can be above DRC. How come china and india are in this group and Botswana isnt. Lesotho ranked above ZAmbia? Angola gave aid to portugal and yet is here in the poorest bracket. this is horse s-hit.

TRUE RANGERS
August 3, 2012 at 7:13 am
Tuvalu (Listeni/tuːˈvɑːluː/ too-VAH-loo or /ˈtuːvəluː/ TOO-və-loo), formerly known as the Ellice Islands,[2] is a Polynesian island nation located in the Pacific Ocean, midway between Hawaii and Australia. It comprises four reef islands and five true atolls spread out from 6° to 10° south.[3] Its nearest neighbours are Kiribati, Nauru, Samoa and Fiji. Its population of 10,544 makes it the third-least populous sovereign state in the world, with only Vatican City and Nauru having fewer inhabitants. In terms of physical land size, at just 26 square kilometres (10 sq mi) Tuvalu is the fourth smallest country in the world, larger only than the Vatican City at 0.44 km2 (0.17 sq mi), Monaco at 1.98 km2 (0.76 sq mi) and Nauru at 21 km2 (8.1 sq mi).
The first inhabitants of Tuvalu were Polynesian people. In 1568 Spanish navigator Álvaro de Mendaña sailed through the islands and is understood to have sighted Nui during his expedition in search of Terra Australis. In 1819 the island of Funafuti was named Ellice’s Island; the name Ellice was applied to all nine islands after the work of English hydrographer Alexander George Findlay (1812–1876).[4] The islands came under Britain’s sphere of influence in the late 19th century, when the Ellice Islands were declared a British protectorate by Captain Gibson, R. N. of HMS Curaçao between 9th and 16 October 1892. The Ellice Islands were administered as British protectorate by a Resident Commissioner from 1892 to 1916 as part of the British Western Pacific Territories (BWPT), and later as part of the Gilbert and Ellice Islands colony from 1916 to 1974.
In 1974, the Ellice Islanders voted for separate British dependency status. As a consequence Tuvalu separated from the Gilbert Islands which became Kiribati. Tuvalu became fully independent within the Commonwealth on 1 October 1978. On 5 September 2000, Tuvalu became the 189th member of the United Nations.

I checked on google to verify, the information is almost accurate. The criteria used is to make a lists of countries by gross domestic product at purchasing power parity per capita, the value of all final goods and services produced within a country in a given year divided by the average (or mid-year) population for the same year.
Countries like China will appear on both the top 100 poorest and top 100 richest countries since it falls in the intesection.
innocent
August 3, 2012 at 8:43 am
The infomation by tumfweko is reliable.The only problem that i have noticed from other comments is lack of understanding of English language and lack of geographical and economical technical know how.In as much as people may disagree with countries like China not to be poor,they should also look at the population distibution with regard to development.China’s land is very diverse in which zambia’s land can go into about 40 – 50 times.As of now China is still developing and its people refuse to be called a developed country as purported by other developed countries even if it having one of the best economies in the world.

This is the correct ranking by GDP & per capita income.
It is imperative to remember that using the 2 parameters above gives a wholistic approach to the economic performance of countries. I pray that my countrys’ situation will improve for the sake of people living below the poverty datum line.
