Rank Order

Another useful reference from CIA - The World Factbook. Thanks to CIA.

The Guide to Rank Order Pages
https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/docs/rankorderguide.html

Here you can find list of data from Area, Population, Life Expectancy, GDP, Unemployment Rate, Electricity consumption, Oil - proved reserves, Public debt, and other interesting data.

Take External Debt for instance, United States has an external debt of $12.25 trillion ($12,250,000,000,000) at 30 June 2007.

Not all Rank Order pages have the same number of entries as certain information is not available for some countries. But it is fun reading the data.
