Interesting graph. Wonder what the gdp growth looks like for UAR countries, or at least what their share is of the 25% for all other countries.

Interesting in that Today's India pretty much has the same share of GDP that it had in 1950.

Only the Western Europe is consistent. it was Brits, French, and now the germans leading the Europeans.

Notice that when your favorite rulers the Mughals (about whom you started talking during a discussion on dogs) were ruling Large parts of India, India's share of the GDP was quite high.

Wonder how big a chunk went towards taj mahal.

>>>>Infrastructure is a huge prereq. as is a healthy socio-political structure. Once you have these in place, it is relatively easy to hold your own in terms of percentages. The middle east, all things remaining the same, will certainly drop in this category if you were to project out to 2050, for the latter reason. With India, it will be more the former, if it doesn't progress on the infrastructure front.

May be india can learn from its own experience of telcom. Put industry in private hands and leapfrog some infrastructure needs. Software exports also prospered on those lines.
Development of ports, roads, and airport will be permanent problem in corrupt political system.
