Qatar

Qatar has a GDP per capita of $93,851.7. Just fifty years ago, Qatar was just a small fishing town with little economic significance and almost no educational structure. Today, it is one of the most significant hubs for oil exportation. It began exporting oil after its discovery in Qatar in 1939, as well as natural gas. By 1951, it was producing 46,500 barrels a day. It has grown to receive investments back into its economy from foreign brands, banks, real estate and sports teams like the Paris Saint-Germain soccer team.
