GAZETTEER OF NATIONS
Listed below are the principal countries and territories of the world. The area figures give the total area of land, inland water, and ice. The population figures are 2005 estimates where available or you can see on Wikipedia to get the current data. The annual income is the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita in US dollars. GDP has been measured by purchasing power parity method, this enable comparisons to be made between countries through their purchasing power (in US dollars), showing real price level of goods and services rather than using currency exchange rates. The figures are the latest available, usually 2005 estimates, but I’ve seen on Wikipedia that the current data is also quite same, not so different.
