Right now The Most Serene Republic of Flob is ranked number one
in the world for the Largest Information Technology Sector in the
world. Indeed, in its description it says: A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, which is consistent.

What I find inconsistent, is its UN one word description, which says that the
economy is only thriving. What is the difference between what
the UN uses to rank nations, and what it uses to describe them?
Does this mean that the citizens of Flob don't have anything
_but_ an information technology sector? (Given that Flob internet
servers have citizenship, perhaps we need to discover if there are
any flesh-and-blood memebrs of the body politic. :) )

That particular description is only for the private sector of the nation in that particular area. That basically means that information technology is their best private industry. The economy as a whole is different from the individual industries and thus the economic term for the country is on a different scale....or something. I hope I helped, although I may be completely offbase.
