Based on estimates from analysts, Facebook could generate between $1 billion and $1.1 billion this year. However, it still has a long way to go before it goes on par in terms of revenue with Google, whose earnings for the year 2009 was a massive $23.6 billion.

So if Facebook were to be a country and given that its “GDP” is capped at $1 billion and population is at 400 million, its “GDP per capita” would be a mere $2.50. That figure is far worse that the Republic of Zimbabwe, whose GDP per capita (PPP) is $100. Nonetheless, the title of “the poorest country in the world” would go to Facebook.
