These rankings are not published anywhere, but the data from which these rankings can be calculated are published by the World Bank; and, so, for the first time anywhere, these rankings are being published now, by me, here; and they can easily be confirmed by linking onto the URLs that I provide from the World Bank, from which two pages on the Web, I have calculated and produced these rankings, based on the World Bank’s latest available data:
For each named nation here, the rank will be shown, then the latest year for which the World Bank has data on that nation, and then the dollar amount at the current value of the U.S. dollar.
The two calculations are for GDP in dollars not adjusted for purchasing power in the given nation (this being what investors are interested in); and then GDP in dollars that are adjusted for purchasing power (or Purchasing Power Parity) by the workers and consumers in (all of the residents of) that nation.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s latest book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.

As far as what is significant, again Eric leaves out his favorite Criminal Country, Israel. The United States Gives Israel over $10 Million Dollars A Day!
