Map: Idaho Is 3rd World Country

Nic sends along a fun map that compares the gross domestic product and population of other countries to the 50 individual states. If Idaho was its own country, it would be the equivalent of Sudan, while Washington matches up closely with Greece. Rounding out the Northwest, Oregon is Pakistan, Montana is Lebanon, and Wyoming is Lithuania. You can see how the other states rank with this Life Inc. map here.

Question: Are you surprised how the Northwest state rank on this map?
