The De partme nt of Econom ic and Soci al Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat is
a vital interface between global policies in the economic, social and environmental
spheres and national action. The Department works in three main interlinked areas:
(i) it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social and
environmental data and information on which States Members of the United Nations
draw to review common problems and to take stock of policy options; (ii) it facilitates
the negotiations of Member States in many intergovernmental bodies on joint courses
of action to address ongoing or emerging global challenges; and (iii) it advises
interested Governments on the ways and means of translating policy frameworks
developed in United Nations conferences and summits into programmes at the country
level and, through technical assistance, helps build national capacities.

World Statistics Pocketbook v

Introduction
The World Statistics Pocketbook is an annual compilation of key economic, social
and environmental indicators, presented in one-page profiles. This edition includes
country profiles for 229 countries or areas of the world. Prepared by the United
Nations Statistics Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs, it
responds to General Assembly resolution 2626 (XXV), in which the Secretary-General
is requested to supply basic national data that will increase international public
awareness of countries' development efforts.
The indicators shown are selected from the wealth of international statistical
information compiled regularly by the Statistics Division and the Population Division
of the United Nations, the statistical services of the United Nations specialized
agencies and other international organizations and institutions. Special recognition
is gratefully given for their assistance in continually providing data.

Time period
This issue of the World Statistics Pocketbook covers various years from 2005 to
2016. For the economic indicators, in general, three years - 2005, 2010 and 2014 are shown, unless otherwise indicated. Due to space limitations, data for one year
only are shown for the indicators in the social and in the environment and
infrastructure categories. For 5 social indicators, a year range (2010-2015) is shown.

Organization of the Pocketbook


The country tables or profiles are presented alphabetically according to countries
names in English and contain the available data for the following broad categories:

General information: includes each countrys location by geographical


region, currency, surface area, population and population density, capital
city and its population and United Nations membership date.

Economic indicators: includes data on each countrys national accounts (Gross


domestic product (GDP), GDP growth rate, Gross Value Added (GVA) by
industry etc.), employment by industry sector, unemployment, labour force
participation, consumer price index, production indices (industry, agriculture
and food) and balance of payments.

Trade: contains the value of total exports, imports and the trade balance as
well as the countries main trading partners.

Social indicators: includes population (growth rates, including for the urban
population), total fertility rate, life expectancy, total dependency ratio,
international migrant stock, tourist arrivals, refugees, infant mortality,
health (expenditure and physicians), education (expenditure and gross
enrolment ratios), intentional homicide rate and seats held by women in
national parliaments.

Environmental and infrastructure indicators: includes mobile-cellular


telephone subscriptions, internet users, patents, threatened species,
forested area, CO 2 emission estimates, energy production and energy supply
per capita, proportion of terrestrial and marine areas protected, population

using improved drinking water sources and improved sanitation facilities and
Official Development assistance received or disbursed.
The complete set of indicators, listed by category and in the order in which they
appear in the profiles, is shown before the country profile section (see page xi). Not
all indicators are shown for each country or area due to different degrees of data
availability.
The technical notes section, which follows the country profile pages, contains
brief descriptions of the concepts and methodologies used in the compilation of the
indicators as well as information on the statistical sources for the indicators.
Readers interested in longer time-series data or more detailed descriptions of the
concepts or methodologies should consult the primary sources of the data and the
references listed in the section following the technical notes.
For brevity the Pocketbook omits specific information on the source or
methodology for individual data points, and when a data point is estimated no
distinction is made between whether the estimation was done by the international or
national organization. See the technical notes section for the primary source which
may provide this information.

Note
The present World Statistics Pocketbook, 2016 edition (Series V, No. 40) is an
update of the previous edition, released in 2015, entitled World Statistics
Pocketbook 2015 edition (Series V, No. 39).

Technical notes
Below are brief descriptions of the indicators presented in the country profiles. The terms are
arranged in alphabetical order.
Agricultural production indices are calculated by the Laspeyres formula based on the sum of
price-weighted quantities of different agricultural commodities produced. The commodities
covered in the computation of indices of agricultural production are all crops and livestock
products originating in each country. Practically all products are covered, with the main
exception of fodder crops. Production quantities of each commodity are weighted by the
average international commodity prices in the base period and summed for each year. To
obtain the index, the aggregate for a given year is divided by the average aggregate for the
base period 2004-2006. Indices are calculated without any deductions for feed and seed and
are referred to as gross by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
(FAO).

Balance of payments is a statement summarizing the economic transactions between the
residents of a country and non-residents during a specific period, usually a year. It includes
transactions in goods, services, income, transfers and financial assets and liabilities.
Generally, the balance of payments is divided into two major components: the current account
and the capital and financial account. The data on balance of payments presented in the
World Statistics Pocketbook correspond to the current account category. The current account
is a record of all transactions in the balance of payments covering the exports and imports of
goods and services, payments of income, and current transfers between residents of a country
and non-residents.
Source of the data: International Monetary Fund (IMF), Washington, D.C., the database on
International Financial Statistics, last accessed April 2016.
Capital city and capital city population is the designation of any specific city as a capital
city as reported by the country or area. The city can be the seat of the government as
determined by the country. Some countries designate more than one city to be a capital city
with a specific title function (e.g., administrative and/or legislative capital). The data refer to
the year 2015, unless otherwise stated in a footnote.
Source of the data: United Nations Population Division, New York, "World Urbanization
Prospects: The 2014 Revision".
CO 2 emission estimates represent the volume of carbon dioxide (CO2) produced during the
combustion of solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels, from gas flaring and the manufacture of
cement. Original data were converted to CO2 emissions by using the conversion formula: 1
gram Carbon = 3.667 grams CO2.

Technical notes (continued)


Consumer price index (CPI) measures the period-to-period proportional change in the prices
of a fixed set of consumer goods and services of constant quantity and characteristics,
acquired, used or paid for by the reference population. The index is constructed as a weighted
average of a large number of elementary aggregate indices. Each of the elementary aggregate
indices is estimated using a sample of prices for a defined set of goods and services obtained
in, or by residents of, a specific region from a given set of outlets or other sources of
consumption. The indices here generally refer to all items and to the country as a whole,
unless otherwise stated in a footnote.

Currency refers to those notes and coins in circulation that are commonly used to make
payments. The official currency names and the ISO currency codes are those officially in use,
and may be subject to change.

ISO 4217 Maintenance Agency, last accessed April 2016.
Economy: Agriculture, industry and services and other activity presents the shares of the
components of Gross Value Added (GVA) at current prices by kind of economic activity;
agriculture (agriculture, hunting, forestry and fishing), industry (mining and quarrying,
manufacturing, electricity, gas and water supply; and construction) and in services and other
sectors based on the sections of the International Standard Industrial Classification of All
Economic Activities (ISIC), Revision 3, unless a different revision is stated in a footnote.

Education: Government expenditure shows the trends in general government expenditures
for educational affairs and services at pre-primary, primary, secondary and tertiary levels and
subsidiary services to education, expressed as a percentage of the gross domestic product.
The data refer to the year 2014, unless stated by a footnote showing the latest available year
(no earlier than 2011).
Source of the data: United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
(UNESCO) Institute for Statistics, Montreal, the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) statistics
database, last accessed June 2016.
Education: Primary, secondary and tertiary gross enrolment ratio is the total enrolment in
the primary, secondary and tertiary levels of education, regardless of age, expressed as a
percentage of the eligible official school-age population corresponding to the same level of
education in a given school year. Education at the primary level provides the basic elements of
education (e.g. at elementary school or primary school). Education at the secondary level is
provided at middle school, secondary school, high school, teacher-training school at this level
and schools of a vocational or technical nature. Education at the tertiary level is that which is
provided at university, teachers college, higher professional school, and which requires, as a
minimum condition of admission, the successful completion of education at the second level,
World Statistics Pocketbook 236

or evidence of the attainment of an equivalent level of knowledge. Enrolment is measured at
the beginning of the school or academic year. The gross enrolment ratio at each level will
include all pupils whatever their ages, whereas the population is limited to the range of
official school ages. Therefore, for countries with almost universal education among the
school-age population, the gross enrolment ratio can exceed 100 if the actual age distribution
of pupils extends beyond the official school ages. The data refer to the year 2014, unless
stated by a footnote showing the latest available year (no earlier than 2011).

Employment in agricultural, industrial and services and other sectors: The employed
comprise all persons above a specified age who, during a specified brief period, either one
week or one day, were in "paid employment or in "self-employment, see ILOs Current
International Recommendations on Labour Statistics. The data refer to those 15 years and
over, unless otherwise stated in a footnote, who perform any work at all in the reference
period, for pay or profit in agriculture (agriculture, forestry and fishing), industry (mining and
quarrying; manufacturing; electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply; water supply,
sewerage, waste management and remediation activities; and construction) and in services
and other sectors based on the sections of the International Standard Industrial Classification
of All Economic Activities (ISIC), Revision 4, unless an earlier revision is stated in a footnote.

Labour Market (KILM 9th edition), last accessed March 2016.
Energy production, primary, is the capture or extraction of fuels or energy from natural
energy flows, the biosphere and natural reserves of fossil fuels within the national territory in
a form suitable for use. Inert matter removed from the extracted fuels and quantities
reinjected, flared or vented are not included. The resulting products are referred to as
primary products. It excludes secondary production, that is, the manufacture of energy
products through the process of transforming primary and/or other secondary fuels or energy.
Data are provided in a common energy unit (Petajoule) and refer to the following primary
energy sources: hard coal, brown coal, peat, oil shale, conventional crude oil, natural gas
liquids (NGL), other hydrocarbons, additives and oxygenates, natural gas, fuelwood, wood
residues and by-products, bagasse, animal waste, black liquor, other vegetal material and
residues, biogasoline, biodiesels, bio jet kerosene, other liquid biofuels, biogases, industrial
waste, municipal waste, nuclear, solar photovoltaic, solar thermal, hydro, wind, geothermal,
and tide, wave and other marine sources. Peat, biomass and wastes are included only when
the production is for energy purposes. See International Recommendations for Energy
Statistics (2011) and 2012 Energy Balances for a complete description of the methodology.
Source of the data: United Nations Statistics Division, New York, Energy Statistics Yearbook

Fertility rate is the total fertility rate, a widely used summary indicator of fertility. It refers to
the number of children that would be born per woman, assuming no female mortality at child
bearing ages and the age-specific fertility rates of a specified country and reference period.
The data are the five-year average for the reference period 2010-2015, unless otherwise stated
in a footnote.

Prospects: The 2015 Revision; supplemented by data from the United Nations Statistics
Division, New York, Demographic Yearbook 2013 and Secretariat for the Pacific Community
(SPC) for small countries or areas.
Food production index covers commodities that are considered edible and contain nutrients.
Accordingly, coffee and tea are excluded because they have practically no nutritive value. The
index numbers shown may differ from those produced by countries themselves because of
differences in concepts of production, coverage, weights, time reference of data, and methods
of evaluation. The data include estimates made by FAO in cases where no official or semiofficial figures are available from the countries.
Source of the data: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Rome,
FAOSTAT database, last accessed March 2015.
Forested area refers to the percentage of land area occupied by forest. Forest is defined in
the Food and Agriculture Organizations Global Forest Resources Assessment as land spanning
more than 0.5 hectares with trees higher than 5 metres and a canopy cover of more than 10
percent, or trees able to reach these thresholds in situ. It does not include land that is
predominantly under agricultural or urban land use. Data are calculated from the forest
estimates divided by the land area.
Source of the data: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Rome,
FAOSTAT database, last accessed November 2015.
Gross domestic product (GDP) is an aggregate measure of production equal to the sum of gross
value added of all resident producer units plus that part (possibly the total) of taxes on products, less
subsidies on products, that is not included in the valuation of output. It is also equal to the sum of the
final uses of goods and services (all uses except intermediate consumption) measured at purchasers
prices, less the value of imports of goods and services, and equal to the sum of primary incomes
distributed by resident producer units (see System of National Accounts 2008). The data in the
World Statistics Pocketbook are in current United States (US) dollars and are estimates of the total
production of goods and services of the countries represented in economic terms, not as a measure
of the standard of living of their inhabitants. In order to have comparable coverage for as many
countries as possible, these US dollar estimates are based on official GDP data in national
currency, supplemented by national currency estimates prepared by the Statistics Division
using additional data from national and international sources. The estimates given here are in

most cases those accepted by the United Nations General Assemblys Committee on
Contributions for determining United Nations members contributions to the United Nations
regular budget. The exchange rates for the conversion of GDP national currency data into US
dollars are the average market rates published by the International Monetary Fund, in
International Financial Statistics. Official exchange rates are used only when free market rates are
not available. For non-members of the Fund, the conversion rates used are the average of United Nations
operational rates of exchange. It should be noted that the conversion from local currency into US dollars
introduces deficiencies in comparability over time and among countries which should be considered
when using the data. For example, comparability over time is distorted when exchange rate fluctuations
differ substantially from domestic inflation rates.

Health: Total expenditure is the sum of all outlays for health maintenance, restoration or
enhancement paid for in cash or supplied in kind expressed as a percentage of Gross Domestic
Product. It is the sum of General Government Expenditure on Health and Private Expenditure
on Health. General government expenditure on health is the sum of health outlays paid for in
cash or supplied in kind by government entities, such as the Ministry of Health, other
ministries, parastatal organizations or social security agencies (without double counting
government transfers to social security and extra budgetary funds). It includes all expenditure
made by these entities, regardless of the source, so includes any donor funding passing
through them. It includes transfer payments to households to offset medical care costs and
extra budgetary funds to finance health services and goods. It includes current and capital
expenditure.
Source of the data: World Health Organization (WHO), Geneva, WHO Global Health
Expenditure database, last accessed June 2016.
Health: Physicians (per 1 000 population) includes generalist medical practitioners and
specialist medical practitioners. The classification of health workers used is based on criteria
for vocational education and training, regulation of health professions, and activities and tasks
of jobs, i.e. a framework for categorizing key workforce variables according to shared
characteristics.

Intentional homicide rate: The rates are the annual number of unlawful deaths purposefully
inflicted on a person by another person, reported for the year per 100 000. For most countries,
country information on causes of death is not available for most causes. Estimates are
therefore based on cause of death modelling and death registration data from other countries
in the region. Further country-level information and data on specific causes was also used. The
data refer to the year 2014 unless stated by a footnote showing the latest available year (no

Labour force participation rate is calculated by expressing the number of persons in the
labour force as a percentage of the working-age population. The labour force is the sum of the
number of persons employed and the number of unemployed (see ILOs current International
Recommendations on Labour Statistics). The working-age population is the population above a
certain age, prescribed for the measurement of economic characteristics. The data refer to the
age group of 15 years and over and are based on ILOs modelled estimates, unless otherwise
stated in a footnote.

Major trading partners show the three largest trade partners (countries of last known
destination and origin or consignment) in international merchandise trade transactions. In
some cases a special partner is shown (i.e. Areas nes, bunkers, etc.) instead of a country and
refers to one of the following special categories. Areas not elsewhere specified (Areas nes) is
used (a) for low value trade, (b) if the partner designation was unknown to the country or if an
error was made in the partner assignment and (c) for reasons of confidentiality. If a specific
geographical location can be identified within Areas nes, then they are recorded accordingly
(i.e. Other Europe nes, South (S.) America nes, North and Central (N & C) America nes,
Oceania nes, Other Africa nes, and Other Asia nes). Bunkers are ship stores and aircraft
supplies, which consists mostly of fuels and food. Free zones belong to the geographical and
economic territory of a country but not to its customs territory. For the purpose of trade
statistics the transactions between the customs territory and the free zones are recorded, if
the reporting country uses the Special Trade System. Free zones can be commercial free zones
(duty free shops) or industrial free zones. Data are expressed as percentages of total exports
and of total imports of the country, area or special partner.

Net Official Development Assistance received or disbursed is defined as those flows to
developing countries and multilateral institutions provided by official agencies, including state
and local governments, or by their executive agencies, each transaction of which meets the
following tests: i) it is administered with the promotion of the economic development and
welfare of developing countries as its main objective; and ii) it is concessional in character
and conveys a grant element of at least 25 per cent. It is expressed as a percentage of Gross
National Income of either the donor or recipient. The multilateral institutions include the
World Bank Group, regional banks, financial institutions of the European Union and a number
of United Nations institutions, programmes and trust funds.

Goods simply being transported through a country (goods in transit) or temporarily admitted
(except for goods for inward processing) do not add to the stock of material resources of a
country and are not included in the international merchandise trade statistics. In the general
trade system, the definition of the statistical territory of a country coincides with its

economic territory. In the special trade system, the definition of the statistical territory
comprises only a particular part of the economic territory, mainly that part which coincides
with the free circulation area for goods. The free circulation area is a part of the economic
territory of a country within which goods may be disposed of without Customs restrictions.
In the case of exports, the transaction value is the value at which the goods were sold by the
exporter, including the cost of transportation and insurance, to bring the goods onto the
transporting vehicle at the frontier of the exporting country (an FOB-type valuation). In the case
of imports, the transaction value is the value at which the goods were purchased by the
importer plus the cost of transportation and insurance to the frontier of the importing country
(a CIF-type valuation). Both imports and exports are shown in United States dollars.
Conversion from national currencies is made by means of currency conversion factors based
on official exchange rates (par values or weighted averages).
