The Dynamic Graph (Data Visualization) Shows the Top 10 Countries with Most GDP from 1960 to 2017. This Country GDP Ranking includes countries such as, United States, China, Japan, Germany, United Kingdom, etc.

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a monetary measure of the market value of all the final goods and services produced in a period of time, often annually or quarterly. Nominal GDP estimates are commonly used to determine the economic performance of a whole country or region, and to make international comparisons.

This is an incredible visualization. In particular, watch China as it rises falls and rises again and note the year China went to second place and stayed there. They likely won’t fall from that spot and, most likely, will overtake the US in our lifetimes.
