List of countries by exports

In that case ,EU can't not be counted as one entity, that will become pointless then.

Well,don'T.I don't think there's a rule that it must be considered one entity.

If EU as one economic entity to compare with other economic entities it should be counted as just one, otherwise the whole comparison will become pointless thus they should compare as individual countries, not EU as a whole

In 2013 the Euro/Dollar parity was the one in the link,not the one of today.And exports grew in 2014 to vis a vis 2013.The data for China is 2014.

Nope - read the link you posted;
Trade > Main Trading Partners (2014)

It clearly states, export millions 2014 1,702,736 EUR. 1,702 Trillion Euros

If you are still not convinced you may look at the European Commission trade website
(I cannot post links)
trade.ec.europa.eu/doclib/docs/2006/september/tradoc_122532.pdf

Global exports of goods of 28 member states;

Yrs 2013 €1,736 Trillion $2.302 Trillion
Yrs 2014 €1,703 Trillion $1,857 Trillion

All global rankings follow the basic common sense that a Union should be compared either as a whole or individual member countries, You can't mix them together.

So,i was right....it depends on dollar/euro fluctuation.

EU is in trouble now , some countries deeply regret of joining EU. Probably EU as an economic entity won't last long in the future.

China, Hong Kong and Taiwan's volume should be added together as greater China.

They love it! - Its only four countries that hold the EU together France, UK , Germany & Italy. Italy is in trouble, other countries are a burden.

Follow common sense,man, you can either choose to compare EU with China or compare Romania with China. You just can not use both. Is this common sense really this hard for you to get?

I can't compare Romania with China,obviously.It was just an example to show that ranking only shows exports outside the EU but EU member countries export to other EU member countries to nd those exports simply aren't shown in that graphic.

You become impossible now, no comparison is done by your mentality.You can't mix them, you can only choose one way or another to compare! Every one in this forum understands this simple common sense but you.

The World Factbook

taken straight from the CIA page. interestingly, Hong Kong gains a rank among those countries. (now why would they considered Hong Kong as a country?)
