🇨🇳 Visualizing How China’s Economy Overshadows All of Asia

What We’re Showing

This map compares China’s economic might with the rest of Asia: a combined entity of 30 other economies.

Data is sourced from the UN and the IMF as of 2024. Countries from the Middle East haven’t been included with the rest of Asia, and data is unavailable for North Korea.

Key Takeaways

With an $18 trillion economic output in 2024, China’s GDP is nearly two trillion dollars larger than the rest of Asia combined.

That list includes other Asian heavyweights like: 🇯🇵 Japan ($4.1T), 🇮🇳 India ($3.9T), and 🇰🇷 South Korea ($1.9T), the world’s 4th, 5th, and 12th largest economies.
