I apologize for my English but not speak it very well that England aparese being richer than Britain when England is one of the four kingdom of that nation
If England can really be named a country subdivision? If it has regional parliament, government, budget? Their priority in the rating seems to be fictive. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.120.44.140 ( talk) 20:34, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
If Scotland is included, as it is, England should be too.
England should definitely be included. It is a subnational entity, distinct from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Scottish MSPs, Welsh AMs, and Northern Irish MLAs cannot vote on issues affecting England in their respective legislatures, and there is a clear border between English counties and Welsh and Scottish ones.

Where are other important subdivisions of powers like India, Russia, South africa, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Iran, Poland, Pakistan, Indonesia... and of course South Korea. I can´t believe this regions and states´s GSP haven`t more hundred of billions $!
... is not appropriate per MOS:FLAG. Anyone interested in cleaning it up? Plus it looks really weird to have a country flag next to a subdivision name. Most of these entities have their own flags in fact, e.g. England. So, either we add the country names or remove the flags altogether.-- 70.80.234.196 ( talk) 00:31, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

This page should be deleted by editors for the following reasons:
1. Lack of clear definition on what constitutes a country's 'sub-division'
Other editors have already pointed out the problem with classifying England as a sub-national division. That's only the tip of the iceberg. 'East China', the top region on the table, is not an administrative division of the People's Republic of China, and it is not even clear what 'East China' is supposed to include - is it actually the eastern half of China, divided right in the middle, or does it refer to the eastern seaboard regions? If it is the latter, on what grounds can those regions be bundled together? What are the criteria?
A complete lack of definition on the meaning of sub-national divisions should have made this article a no-go to begin with.
2. Lack of informativeness
There really is no information content in this page. In my opinion, Wikipedia already has too many sub-national region GDP figures for its own good, most of them not particularly relevant or up to standard. Comparison across sub-national divisions adds no value either, because of a lack of clarification on how those divisions are defined - as stated above.
This article is clearly being abused for nationalist chest-thumping by editors from various parts of the world, and is not useful to anyone. I recommend this article for deletion. ( 99.254.173.63 ( talk) 04:20, 25 March 2012 (UTC))

The "Subjects of the Federation" of Russia are second-level, not first-level. The Federal Districts are first-level.
Moreover, Russia and Belorussia consider themselves parts of the Union State. So, Russia and Belorussia are actually first-level. СЛУЖБА ( talk) 11:31, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Currently there are several sources listing the GDP in currencies other than USD. Be it Euros or Pesos or whatever, the exchange rates used in the article don't always seem to reflect the reference year. We should decide on how to determine the rate used for such conversions. IMO there are two possibilities: either we take the exchange rate as of 31 December of the reference year, or we use the annual average exchange rate for that year (e.g. here). At the moment though, several list entries seem to be based on the daily rate from the time of the edit or other undefined exchange values. De728631 ( talk) 13:55, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
There have been problems with referencing the GDP of England, namely the choice of source. On my user talk page, AfricaTanz stated that for political subdivisions the GDP equals the GDP, so we could use this table. But at least according to our own Wikipedia articles I'm having a hard time following this logic. The Gross regional domestic product is said to be the aggregate data of one region's GVA, but then Gross value added as such has to be corrected for taxes and subsidies to get the GDP proper. On the other hand, I'm not too happy with the source introduced by Der Statisker: [1]. This link to Eurostat leaves it open which of the several databases should be consulted for reference. The data there is provided for the NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 regions, which in case of England include an awful lot of subunits like Greater Manchest, East Cumbria, and so on (see Gross domestic product (GDP) at current market prices by NUTS 3 regions). So, even if we sum up all possible English NUTS X regions from these lists we're still left with the problem of conversion from Euro to USD (see thread above).

There is currently an editing conflict where one user disagrees that England is a subdivision. I can see your point of view that there is no official "English government" but it seems daft that in this article the UK is separated into Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland... what is England to you then? The UK's first level country subdivisions are definitely England, Scotland, Wales and N. Ireland, regardless if there's an official English government. In the Administrative geography of the United Kingdom it clearly states "The United Kingdom, a sovereign state to the northwest of continental Europe, consists of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.". For local government in the United Kingdom, England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales each have their own system of administrative and geographic demarcation. The article continues and clearly refers to the first level administration of the UK as the four countries. Just because an English parliament doesn't exist doesn't mean the subdivision of "England" doesn't. Bezuidenhout ( talk) 18:29, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
In the above discussion I found a link to the UN's description of UK subdivision, but I just recently came across this page about the UK government's official interpretation of the EU NUTS classification system. It looks like Scotland, North Ireland, and Wales are treated as first order subdivisions, but England is not. On the first order, England is subdivided into the various regions. With this, I support adding Scotland back to the list, but not England. I am now adding the Regions of England to the list. It looks like nearly all of them meet the criterion. This link from the UK government on their official classification should settle the issue. -- Dkriegls ( talk to me!) 03:22, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Kanto region is a geographical area of Honshu, the largest island of Japan, Kanto region is not the first subdivision of Japan. It is similar to the Northeast Region of China and the West Coast Region of the United States. Here, it is more inappropriate to use it as a country subdivision.

Is there a way to move the images so that they don't reduce the table size? For me, the table becomes unreadable. If not, I'd just remove the images. 09:09, 21 July 2023 (UTC) Rxtreme ( talk) 09:09, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
Very wide tables are hard to read, so I have tried to squish the table as much as possible with template tricks. I also removed the "Largest cities" column because it's not all that relevant.
Two more columns make the table larger without pulling their weight (my opinion): Population and Continent. Population isn't necessary to note GDP per capita and most countries in this list are famous enough, making the continent obvious.
I'll remove both of these soon if there are no objections. Wizmut ( talk) 19:23, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
