The per capita income of the richest small country in the world is 19 times that of China. What do they rely on?

There are about 200 countries in the world, each country has its own unique customs and each country has its own unique national conditions. Moreover, 33 countries have an area of less than 1000 square kilometers, which is vividly called "pocket countries" by the international community. In terms of per capita GDP, Liechtenstein is the richest country in the world. So today I will introduce a country like Liechtenstein and why it is so rich.

First of all, Leicester is a central European country, located in the middle of the beautiful Orbiss Mountain and on the east bank of the Rhine River. Its neighboring countries are Switzerland and Austria, with a land area of only about 6.5438+0.6 million square kilometers. So how small is this area? About 50% of the Macao Special Administrative Region, with a population of only about 38,000. The main ethnic group is German, and the rest are immigrants from Switzerland, Austria, Germany and Italy.

Secondly, although Leicester is a standard small country with few people, it has a relatively sound agricultural and industrial system, especially the metal processing industry, machinery and instrument manufacturing industry, which has a long-standing reputation in the world. Liechtenstein's stamp industry, tourism and financial industry are also very developed, bringing huge income to the country every year. Liechtenstein is known as the "stamp kingdom", and the stamps produced are famous for their exquisiteness, which is welcomed by stamp collectors from all over the world.

As a typical representative of a small and rich country, Liechtenstein has a small area and a small population, even to a negligible extent, but its per capita income is absolutely amazing. 20 16 authoritative statistics show that the total GDP of Liechtenstein is 6.289 billion US dollars, and the per capita GDP is about177,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 9 times that of China (about 9,234 US dollars). Such a high per capita income is far higher than the average standard of developed countries, and it is truly the richest small country.
