More of beautiful Brazil, the second largest economy in the Americas in GDP by PPP, only after US and the West´s second largest democracy, only after US as well.

I figured that Canada would be the second largest economy in the Americas but this is where the numbers get tricky. Here are Brazil's economic numbers:
GDP (PPP) 2021 estimate
• Total
Increase $3.328 trillion[8] (8th)
• Per capita
Increase $15,642[8] (84th)
GDP (nominal) 2021 estimate
• Total
Increase $1.491 trillion[8] (13th)
• Per capita
Increase $7,010[8] (87th)
And here are Canada's economic numbers:
GDP (PPP) 2021 estimate
• Total
Increase $1.979 trillion[8] (15th)
• Per capita
Increase $51,713[8] (20th)
GDP (nominal) 2021 estimate
• Total
Increase $1.883 trillion[8] (9th)
• Per capita
Increase $49,222[8] (18th)
So the only way Brazil has a stronger economy than Canada is if you go by overall economic output using purchasing power parity. Having said that I know this isn't an economic discussion, it's a photography thread showcasing Brazil's beauty and I agree, in terms of weather and beaches Brazil beats the shit out of Canada but I'd still rather live in Canada but Brazil is clearly getting it's shit together
GDP in absolute numbers is the best and most used measure to use as evaluating the size of an economy. PPP is the best way too, because cost of living varies greatly between so different nations. And per capita income is not a trustable measure as not everyone has that income, even in non market economies in the Soviet Union (when it still existed) not everyone there had the same income, as income distribution varies greatly. There are homeless people in Canada, unemployed, bankrupt and so on, as everywhere else.
More of beautiful and wealthy Brazil, the West´s third largest economy in GDP by PPP only after US and Germany and the world´s 6th largest market economy in GDP by PPP considering that China and Russia are not market economies, and the 8th internationally, considering non market economies in the GDP by PPP as well.
International style in Brazil and US quality and standard of living
Quality and international style as in US can be found all over Brazil, as wealth is spread out along the nation, as well as strong democratic institutions.
