Did you not see the image? It shows you how it compares. In 2009 bn, Oregon's GDP was $165.65 bn and Pakistan's $161.99 bn. That's the comparison in GDP figure the image shows.

Yes but it was mostly full of poor African countries.

Curious, why is Thailand 'Listed' twice?! (Once in Minnesota then in Colorado)

I guess Thailand is the closest comparison to the four states (Colorado, Arizona, Indiana and Minnesota)

OMG! It seems USA is bankrupt!

Yep, big economy but even bigger debts. I wonder how the map would look like if the US compares it's debt with the rest of the world.

These types of self-flattering propaganda were served by Western media in the wake of the dissolution of Soviet Union to delude themselves into thinking they are the 'greatest ever' even though all facts pointed towards the opposite trend.

Now, they have started to create similar charts for China seeing that China is likely to become a larger economy than any Western country in the foreseeable future. And seeing that they can not admit this humiliating fact, they also create such charts for much weaker India to create a sense amongst Indians that they are a rival and competitor to China, so that the West can later use India to fight China to the last Indian.

One should create similar lists for the entire OIC. Comparing GDP of individual non Muslim countries to that of OIC members.

Oh please. Pictorial representations of economic data are quite often simply more informative.
