People often talk about how massive the United States is in terms of economy and land, but here’s a fact that really puts it into perspective: The state of Texas alone has a GDP roughly equal to the entire African continent—minus South Africa.

Yes, you read that right. One U.S. state generates as much economic output as over 50 countries combined.

exas, a single state, with just 30 million people, produces the same wealth as a continent of over a billion people. That’s the scale of the economic disparity.

And we’re not even talking about the entire U.S. economy—just one state, known for oil, tech, energy, and industry, standing toe-to-toe w8ith an entire landmass that spans three times the size of the U.S.
