The sub-Saharan African nations dominate the low-income group. Comparisons U.S. GDP $14.6 trillion Combined GDP of DVCs $20 trillion U.S. has 4.5% of population but produces 23.1% of world’s output U.S. per capita GDP is 127 times that of Democratic Republic of the Congo Walmart’s annual revenue is greater than all but 23 nations’ GDP LO1 LO1 In 2010, we can clearly see the gap between an IAC such as the U.S. and the DVCs.
