What makes these countries so rich?
The top of the ranking is dominated by small, highly productive economies: financial centres such as Singapore, Luxembourg, Ireland, Macau and Switzerland, and resource-rich states such as Qatar, Norway, Guyana and Brunei. A small population sharing a large income — plus cross-border commuters who add to GDP but not to the population — lifts GDP per person.

How big is the gap?
The richest country produces about 131 times as much per person as the poorest. The median country has GDP per capita of $22,218, while the population-weighted world average is $25,762.
GDP per capita, PPP vs nominal
The ranking uses GDP per capita at purchasing-power parity (PPP), which adjusts for price differences so that a dollar buys the same basket of goods everywhere — the fairest way to compare living standards. The nominal column converts at market exchange rates, which makes rich countries look richer and poor countries poorer. GDP measures output, not wealth, and says nothing about how income is shared.
