Argentina. From fourth economy of the first world to being part of the third.

>From fourth economy of the first world

Fourth largest EXPORTER OF WHEAT in the first world, not the fourth economy.

Venezuela. They had the fifth highest GDP per capita in the world in 1950, higher than Norway or Germany, and much potential for growth. Look at them now.

>>2719204
Still had a GDP per capita comparable to France and all economists of the time predicting massive growth.

>Argentina
> fourth economy of the first world
Y'all niggers cray-cray.

>>2719208
This is only true if you think the Spanish Empire can be used to refer to Argentina.

>>2719206
Venezuela had LATIN AMERICA's fifth largest GDP per capita, not the world.

What is this bullshit website that cites itself to prove itself?
Where does it pull the data from exactly?

>>2719231
Try actually looking at the page nigger. It says that the numbers come from Angus Maddison. Presumably his compilation of statistics in "The World Economy: Historical Statistics".
