Okay, so let me get this strait. You somehow managed, in fifteen years, to get your GDP from $246.2 billion to $12,206 Billion???

Yeah no way your GDP would be that high. The world GDP in 2015 will be somewhere around 60 trillion, so you having 12 trillion would be a fifth of the global economy. Also that would mean your GDP per capita would be about $315,789 which is more than six times as high as the highest GDP per capita is now. Your population is a little off too, Poland's projected population in 2015 is about 38 million so unless you took over a small country I don't see how your population could be 55 million.

Actually the US GDP is around 12 trillion now, however there is, like you said, no possible way for the GDP per capita to be that high.

Yeah I forgot, but Poland having a GDP that large would be impossible since there population is about an ninth of the US's population.

and their economy is much inferior

I will lower it.

Also, remember your population needs to be lowered.

problems with this factbook, especially concerning the economy:

1 - your economy, from a lowly $246.2 billion to $4,205,986 million [i.e. 4,205 billion]; that's an increase of more than 15 times the 2005 rate. No economy, however strong, can jump that high.

2 - you state that leaving the EU helped "save" Poland's economy. However, of the EU members in this world, I have yet to see any of them share in this marvel, because if Poland left the EU and became a world economic power [by what means I wouldn't know because I'm not any economic majors guy] no one would stay in the EU because they'd all want to be their own superpower, following in the stead of Poland's miracle [which is what it would be].

3 - Your population is set at 55,006,289 - today's estimate rounds at 38,536,869. By any standard, that might not seem much of an increase, but Poland's net population growt is actually declining at the moment [at a rate of about -.05% annually]. Unless your government performs another miracle of growing people, this would make no sense.

4 - Five years from "predictions" to "world power" is a very, very short time frame for any economy to grow. Japan's miracle took about 20 years to take full effect, owing to a lot of factors that made Japan a favorable economy - from the Korean War to the Oil Crisis to the low value of the yen. You make no mention of anything of this sort.


If any of this is going to make any sense, you really need to get the details behind all of this to make the sense. Personally, very little of this history makes any logical sense to me, owing in part perhaps because I don't understand economics that much - but still, I can't see how it would make sense.

I don't really understand this. I'll just leave this RP.
